Silly question perhaps but how much have people been charged for tiling a bathroom? We are being quoted on the basis of square footage of tiles but friends have been charged a daily rate. Advice gratefully appreciated. Thanks

Hi lovely people of East Dulwich. I am posting this as a mum of two, I cannot imagine having to worry about a place to live, food and essentials for a baby - and although my husband lost his job when I was heavily pregnant, thankfully we never struggled for money. I am trying to raise some money for my friend's daughter who is really struggling financially - having always been independent since her late teens, she and her partner are living back at her mum's until they can save for a new place of their own with their baby once she is born (due October). If anyone would kindly make a donation, small or large, I would be eternally grateful smiling smiley I will be giving her some help but obviously I have limits (along with my own young children). EVERY LITTLE WILL HELP so thank you in advance. [www.crowdfunder.co.uk]

Thanks everyone

I'll have a look for old shoes, might have some. Bumping post as sounds a good cause! Nice to help people directly where possible.

Sounds amazing! Wish this had been around when mine were younger...

Sounds great - good for you! I would happily pop a link on my website East Dulwich Mummy if you like? All the best, I will have a read...

almost at ?2,200! amazing - thanks to all who have donated x

One of my oldest friends lives in Blackheath and her sons go to the Steiner school and love it, it's far "free-er" than most state primaries and kids are encouraged to be confident and independent in a different way...

I am watching this with interest as I think this is a neglected idea - it's an age when kids are still too young to care for themselves all day and yet the holiday clubs don't take children over around 11/12 years. Definitely a gap in the holiday club market!

Hope it is okay to post this here but a lovely mum of a gorgeous 5 yr old little girl that I know is fundraising for Macmillan and I wanted to share the link. She is in recovery from bowel cancer and her main aim is to give something back to those who helped but also to raise awareness, as many think mistakenly that cancer only affects older people. [www.justgiving.com] Please consider giving a pound or two if you can - every penny is appreciated!

Upland / Crystal Palace / Landells prime car break in territory - saw a sign a few months back where someone was asking whoever had stolen stuff to return that with sentimental value. Heartbreaking when you consider it is prob sold for a few quid!

paper cups and plates can be recycled

the person setting it up really is super keen to make it a success, so let's be positive folks! as someone above says there are plenty of eyesores around the area, superdrug being the newest addition

I've got my sticker but no idea about the brown bags - sounds like they have overly complicated things!

Is anyone interested in meeting up to play chess at the weekends? I'm wondering if we could set this up in a local pub (The Plough?) or perhaps above the library. My 9 year old also loves chess but there doesn't seem to be anything local other than sessions in schools.

I've asked my husband and children to make a donation for Mothers Day instead of buying me flowers or us going out for lunch. Thought I'd share in case anyone has seen the news reports of the poor people suffering in Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe floods, and wanted to do something to help... DEC link for donations here:https://www.dec.org.uk/?gclid=CjwKCAjw1dzkBRBWEiwAROVDLFMV_OBYpXkQgI48y0reXyE1XEwckmwA_KqSp_N9GyBv3Ww6X5XyLRoCFNkQAvD_BwE

Sounds fun :)

Also recommending Nimble Arts. Brilliant holiday clubs from age 4 yrs upwards. My sons love it :)

newsagent on Lordship Lane (V7?) particularly rude and unhelpful. I tend to drop near work instead!
