I highly recommend Majek Kocon who runs Magic Projects (www.magicprojects.co.uk). He did an excellent job for us - kitchen extension. Very professional, on budget and on time. He's also very calm - never flustered - a very good trait when it comes to major house renovations!

Hi, am preparing for the arrival of our new au pair in September. Any guidance about where to find a good language school much appreciated- she's really pretty fluent already but wants to find a class that runs throughout the year. All suggestions most welcome.

I am going back to work full time in September and we are looking to find an aupair (we're in discussions with a girl from Germany aged 19). Does anyone have any tips on which English Language schools have been good for other young people who have come to live with you? I am hoping she will be able to make friends at the school and set herself up with a healthy social life. Any tips on how to help her transition into life here as smooth as possible gratefully received. (We live in Forest Hill and was wondering if she might be able to link up with families with German connections over in Herne Hill?)

Many thanks.
