aren't you being unkind to polio victims? they cant help wearing these kind of shoes.;-)

of course they did if the pub closes for 15 months and there is no job for them.

I would be tempted but put a time limit on it. I bet if you told your family you were only going for 3 years ( say) then they would all come to see you. However it is quite an ex pat lifestyle _ i think -so it depends on you too. I think you need to be sure about things like nurseries/ mothers and toddlers groups. Can you leave the children behind and pop out for a week to see what you think? His company (prospective) will probably have some kind of info pack for people in your situation? Good luck,

you mean like apartheid in south africa then? Express discontent?

loz, are you a closet morris dancer??

can someone talk me through the vinegar pilows bit?

if desperate you can buy a little gadget for ?5 to ?10 to put from mobile to pc back to other mobile.I think it involves putting your sim in the hard drive.

my dad refused to let me learn to make fishcakes at school as it was "fish that had been mucked about with" oh the embarrassment. Luckily when it came to quiche ( " cheese that has been mucked about with") my Mum stepped in and I was allowed to cook it.

its really hot today, is she like this when its freezing outside too?

apparently my son tells me its best to do nothing until you check if your neighbours have locked their wireless or not....( seems to work In Reading anyway!!)

the deposit will via bank of mum and dad for some. mainly those whose parents have final salary pensions.

you could always get the man to wee in the watering can and distribute it that way - please report back as to how successful it is...

is it time to prune fruit trees? especially figs- lots of small fruits that will not ripen- not sure, but feel i need to cut back soon. but where to? advice welcome, thanks

Almost everyone feels like this. Whatever childcare you use. It is completely normal. I think its great that you are gradually going full time. Thats probaly best for you. Believe me there is not a "100% correct answer " for childcare. you do what you think is best for now, then you are continually worrying - even at 18 which university - if at all- it jsut goes on and on!!

try charles wray for vintage/ retro lights- or a charity shop? ( my Dad has one too)

is his "family" here too??

I never know how people manage children just 2 years apart. I take my hat off to you! YOu deserve as much help as you can get. 4 years apart is soo much easier ( but harder in other ways)

although I agree and I dont put a helmet on for local 5 minute cycle rides; when I have cycled into town in the rush hour I have seen several cycling accidents and some of them involve the cyclist being thrown off their bike and their helmet inpacting the ground or a vehicle. ps I dont wear headphones,

theres merry go round at herne hill too second hand childrens clothes.

maybe you should borrow a dog?

charity shops, or brixton/peckham/lewisham.

Looking at the posts on this forum there is a huge demand for a hotel around Dulwich. Even just looking at the weddings/ births threads. Not everyone can squeeze into the Victoria Inn. A hotel would create jobs too. Bring it on ( as long as it does not try to be too expensive- in which case they would have to seriously upgrade the pub food).

i thought that was what the body shop was about,and used to buy everything there- but since they sold out to loreal I admit to being a little confused/lazy.

This sounds terrible, can't the police tell you anything else?

I think that is a poor offer from them- what a great way of putting us off maltesers. i think you need to claim for counselling to get over the trauma- at least 3 sessions at ?50 a pop...............
