  1. Can anyone recommend somewhere with a good lunchtime atmosphere on a Saturday for 4 adults to have a civilised leisurely meal on the South Bank? I wondered about places like the oxo tower/ royal festival hall but it has mixed reviews. Any good steers welcome as I am responsible for booking this?? ( shame Chez Bruce will be too far away....)
  2. Some parents' pain threshold for screaming toddlers is much higher than mine.If mine played up I just used to pick them up , leave my shopping and take them outside/ home/ to the play park and then come back later. I wish some parents would do the same and not tough it out.
  3. i cant help- I still have my endowment- but I don't like the idea that someone I dont know gets money on my death. I think its scary.
  4. I hope you have a lovely evening Annette and Adam. Please report back. ;-)
  5. sorry i CANT OPEN YOUR LINK. You would have thought after the riots landlords would be more cautious-are the rents low at the moment?
  6. all well having timber in a period house but in a purpose built flat or say a wates town house then upvc dg will not devalue it.
  7. but a good thing is you will cut down on your external decorating costs. ;-)
  8. i think it is a case of treat others as you are treated. if you get a big bonus, and as your nanny enables you to do so ,then share it. but if you dont get a bonus then no- maybe an extra amount at christmas.
  9. easy go to tesco and ask the nice man- I went to Elmers End and he was SO lovely he let me play with all the phones- including his Galaxy-if you are there you will have to make a decision . done.
  10. i think going away for a night and not being there in the morning might be easiest!!
  11. its almost certainly against the terms of the lease. ask the freeholder too
  12. If you are a 13 year old boy, its best to be playing a ball in a park than trying some "stuff" someones older brother has.I don't excuse them but they have to have space of their own.
  13. KK respect.(tu)
  14. Penge high street is more representative of Britain than Lordship Lane. :-S
  15. I hear what you are saying about nursery etc but you might consider a nanny share with older children that are at school. Families with nannies and children at school welcome parttime baby nanny shares- your baby gets individual attention while older children are at school and the benefit of their company before and after school. Good nannies know where all the activity groups are and will socialise your baby. Just an idea.
  16. thanks everyone , especially the freesat bit which was confusing me.........
  17. Thats the bit I dont understand- I think he says he has to buy a satellite dish but not subscribe, just a one off payment ???
  18. Gary Moore and Parisienne Walkways ( but it was Phil's voice that made it)
  19. no, no freeview signal in north norfolk. he'll have to get a new tv and he's 86 so anything new is a bit of an ordeal.
  20. Does anyone know when our old tv's will stop working here? In norfolk its early November and my father is really worried about it.
  21. WHAT DID YOU DO?? did they give it back to you?? had you reported it already to the police? ::o
  22. poor Robert- twice over. Not looking good for his radio show. :(
  23. I can't stop myself looking out for my recently stolen bike. Whenever I see someone on a bike or see bikes locked up I am looking for my bike. I miss it so much. Are all good bikes taken apart and made up into new ones ? I've looked on gumtree- is there anywhere else ( it wont turn up at a polices station) anyone has been successful? :(
  24. imo its complete oppression of women. That is all it is. They can hide it and use religion as a screen but basically its oppression. Perpetrated by men.
  25. its really hard to get someone to travel to your house for an hour here and there. i ended up taking mine to school and then getting a cleaner/housekeeper/carer to come at 2pm clean for 1.15 hours and then to pick up and stay for 2 hours-you can understand their position, this is the stage wehre if you have an au pair or a friedn has an aupair she under-utilises it can work very well for you. good luck with it.
