Yes I agree there's 2 types of dirt! The temporary and the ingrained filth! This is not being over protective this is just having hygiene standards ( which clearly some of you don't ) Yes i want my child to have fun and caring attention. But I'm pretty sure he can have that without rollin around on filthy carpet! Have you seen the kitchen at Mother Goose, Uplands??? I'd prefer to cook on a camping stove in the garden. Oh and the love and care did not look so evident by the way each Childs progress folder ( a minging old ring binder ) was chucked in the corner oh the room. Where is the care and love when looking after their reports???

I bet bobs single!

Soooooooooo ANY single men out there???

I'm not going to post a pic like I would if I was advertising to sell an old Ford Escort. If there's any single guys out there - they can mail me and then I'll send them a pic. Thats Fair enough isn't it?

So after all of this banter are there ANY single males out there, preferably nice ones? Not the Jeremy Kyle candidate, loser type that the men of East D think us ladies prefer. Anyone? And what's with Tom the chef? Where does he fit into all of this? Oh and this is really not a post for me, I've got a boyfriend & a baby. It's for my v lovely/sexy/pretty friend, honest!

Great advice ladies!!! Ok maybe I need to re title the post... Any single men available that are: - Sane - no obvious mental disorders or substance dependencies - Single - surprisingly tricky for some people to be clear about - Solvent - earns enough to support himself and pays income tax - Straight - has finished wondering whether he might be bisexual. What do you think?

I'm really not a snob, but thought the downstairs room resembled a student squat, the 'reading area' had about 4 manky old books hanging off a metal boom rack under a old piece of fabric, which was dangling from somewhere. I was in shock to see that the childrens sleep time was crashing out on a thin manky cushions. The tooth brush pots ( which each child has) were also disgusting, each toothbrush practically touching the next. Do you know how much bacteria tooth brushes spread!??? I cannot believe this is a sort after nursery!!!!! There was a little girl around 4 drinking the dirty water out of the filthy water area in the garden! There are clearly not enough staff and the house needs to be fumigated! Very very shocked!

I am on the look out for a eligible bachelor in East D, someone around 34-40 who likes the finer things in life as well as a Guinness in a nice local pub. This is not for myself but for a very pretty/inspiring/creative friend who works in the creative industry loves music, travel, food, design, art and a million other things. I am no Cila Black but would love to see my friend with a lovely man! I know its random that i am posting this, but i can totally understand when my single friends say that going out on the pull is the last thing they feel like doing after a long day at work. And i am sure you can too! If you think you could be the one get intouch! PM me x x

Hi there I have just been to visit Mother Goose Nursery on Upland Road. Before i visited i had done quite a bit of research into nurseries and Mother Goose had a few great recommendations. It was definitely not what i was expecting. Has anyone got any thoughts/views/experience with Mother Goose? It was my first nursery visit, so i am using it as a benchmark. It would be good to know what the general consensus is. Thanks x

oh thats great thanks, i will check it out! I would also appreciate recommendations. Thanks

Hi there I have already put a thread on here about nurseries, and appreciate all your great feedback. Unfortunately i did not get any leads on recommended Nurseries, Numbers etc. I would really appreciate any help finding a nursery. Thank you so so much everyone!! x

Wow!! 2 week old! Congratulations!!! I live up by Dulwich Library. Let me know if you fancy doing anything next week. Have a nice day in Sydenham ( my friend lives there too and I went through a phase of walking back and for with the buggy! - knackerimg but good exercise! ) My email is [email protected] Xxxxx

I will be getting the 176 bus all the way from East Dulwich at 11.30am ish If you fancy coming along, if you haven?t ventured into W1 with you Bambino yet. Here is your chance! As we are all their to support ya!And no need to worry about your baby crying on the bus or any other silly fears! It will be fun. please check www.mothers-meeting.com Look forward to hearing from you jenny x

Hi there I am looking for a nursery for my 7 months old, it seems so confusing!Do they all have waiting lists? And do you have to commit for 12 months? Is 7 months too young to send a baby to a nursery? I would really appreciate it if you could give me any advice. Many thanks Jenny

This sounds great!! Just wondering how much are you thinking of charging per day? I have no idea of this kind of thing. Does anyone know how much a day at a nursery costs? Thanks x

yeah we should!! We need a venue, a couple of great nannies and a list of ladies that need such a drop in nursery! Any other ideas? Shall we have a meeting?

I have a 6 month old baby boy, and it's flown by! But now he's hit the 6 month mark. I'm starting to think about money! I work freelance and the days I work are no consistent. I want my baby to go to a nursery a couple of days a week, but do not want to commit a certain amount of days on specific days.? So I was wondering if there is a nanny/nursery that is more like a drop in centre where you pay per day.? If anyone can help with my search, I would really appreciate it and also how much is a day at a nursery/nanny. Help????

I am a new mum and graphic designer, check out my work here www.check-me-out.co.uk Since becoming a new mum - i have found it really difficult to find like minded mums.

Hi there I am looking for recommendations for baby friendly cafes/exhibition cafes/park cafes in London?? Alot of cafes in London tend to be tight on space. So i was wondering if anyone knows of any spacious places to go for a coffee with a few mums and buggies without feeling like you are getting in everyone's way. Look forward to discovering some new places to take my lil one xxx
