  1. I have always maintained that the Dulwich Estate have a ridiculously restrictive lease. It is not commercailly viable and any attempt to intensify use has been opposed by some local residents. anyone can make a planning application - even if they do not own it. Maybe an application for social housing on the site would encourage a better use?
  2. I think sucking your thumb can distort how your teeth grow- leading to braces later. I think that is why some people like dummies?
  3. how old was the child?
  4. If you have never been to the velodrome, and have children who have not been there yet, i recommend you check it out now, and realise what their peers have had and your children will miss out on if something is not done. It it an exceptional facility that fosters safe cycling, away from cars, dogs and pedestrians.
  5. i think taking the baby for a walk for an hour and leaving her behind to have some me time, coming back with a nice cake and making her a cup of tea and piece of cake is a fab present. i wish someone had done that for me.
  6. sometimes the green scoury side of a sponge thing works- but be really careful you do not rub too much off. ( fine on woodwork)
  7. a wire across the road - raise it as they approach- and voila-
  8. dont they do some kind of test first to see if they need it ( beause of existignn immunities?) it seems like too much too soon to me.
  9. George Lamb is eye candy I could watch him in most things.(tu)
  10. i think you can get plain sweat shirts in sainsburys d k hill
  11. easily 100 in the summer when light in evenings after school. a lot more on race nights
  12. did yu notice if they had carpets? it is usually a condition of hte lease that they have carpets- which deaden the noise. you could then complain to the landlord etc etc but this may seem a bit heavy handed at this stage.
  13. i think the thing when you tie a hankie on your finger and make a little puppet show is perfect for these situations- but other passengers migh wonder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. cluedo and risk
  15. I fully support this- natural cycling talent has been nurtured and developed at the velodrome- and it is a great base for all cycling activites- the youth mountain biking, cycle traiing, track biking- but so importantly for children/ youths. Local south London children cannot pop up to North London for the nearest track after school. We need to do everything we can to give young children access to sports,especially if their parents do not.
  16. Re non bio- I have used for 18 years Fairy snow non bio and this has done teenage boys apart from cricket whites -but you do need to wash whites at 60 degrees.
  17. why would you want to go to a cemetary at 10 30 pm?
  18. think of rod hull ( without emu)a dangerous thing to do.
  19. I had never spent more than ?20 on a lip stick until I tried this. If you still have a little bit of a lingering tan this is really good- somehow makes your tan look deeper ( when applied to your face). I have has so many compliments wearing it- I love it to death. best
  20. what about fox poo? as lion is to cat what is to fox?
  21. oh Marmora man - my Dad was in the navy-I am sure you are right- it was drilled in to us.
  22. if i know i have to leave at 5pm i start thinking about what i need and where it is 30 mins before- money shoes bag water gym stuff keys glasses cards. partner thinks;-)" we are leaving at 5pm" starts looking for stuff at 4.59pm- I do think having a handbag is really helpful - most things are in there somewhere- as opposed to him saying " now where did i leave my keys......................".
  23. not OCD at all-A good rule for life! I would say if you are working and can afford to get into the habit it is nice of once or twice a month if you dont go straight home from work, but go for a drink with partner/ friends- because you know once you are home you will be too tired to go out later. if you have a carer/ babysitter that will once a month put your child to bed and you don't get back till 8.30 and you have not had to ccok a meal, it is a lovely reward as to one of the reasons you are working. A friend told me this was a good thing and it is extremely good advice for your marraige/sanity.
  24. YOu might use plants and animals as examples? The plant has flowered and died and we have enjoyed it but now it has died- or animals- I think you cannot avoid it- but it is the whole where are they now? that if you do not have a religion can be hard. I must admit I found church quite helpful for these questions.
