Anyone seen any part time job vacancies around that may suit a 16 year old? She's a fantastic babysitter and pet sitter but anything cafe/shop based would be great. thank you

Yet another recommendation for David at Norwood Roofing. Very easy to work with, lovely team and really good work. Arrived on time last week and leaded my roof at back of house, replaced tiles, removed moss and flaunched the chimney stack. Returned this week and installed lead in the front roof valley, bay window and plugged up a hole they found under the fascia board. David 07412 000 214.

I need to replace the fascia boards and guttering on the front of my house plus a bit of external decorating. Is this the sort of job that requires scaffolding or could it be done off a ladder? Anyone know the rough cost of scaffolding to a two storey house? Thank you

No, it's ?33 if you pay for the whole year. Worth it though.

I also wanted to recommend Paul at IT999. He has fixed my ailing laptop, sorted out wi fi in my shed and has generally given me lots of advice about things I know nothing about! He is a very friendly, helpful and reasonably priced. Great relief to find someone localish who can help with computer probs. Helen

Well done to Goodrich. This is such good news for the school which is improving daily. Fantastic new sports turf surface laid in one of the playgrounds over Easter, looks brilliant and the kids love it.

Hi Katie, I am looking for a piano teacher for my daughter who is 10. She has a basic grasp of piano. Weekdays after school would be great at our house? When are you available and how much do you charge? Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you Helen Cross

In agreement with Whisteria, my family also cycle to school everyday and the area of road outside Harris Girls is a real mess at the moment. There is zebra crossing installed but unopen (barriers across the entrance) and a potentially disasterous combination of parents stopping on zig zag lines, u turning in the road and very fast traffic turning onto Homestall Road from Cheltenham Road. Fencing has been installed along the length of the area outside the school and in combination with the closed crossing its difficult and unsafe to gain entry to the park (the entrance also usually blocked up by a u turning driver). All this combined with dodging school girls its all a bit difficult! The road has also become virtually single lane traffic due to double parking - not sure if this is all teachers/staff. I know the stopping on zig zags has been a problem up at Goodrich School but I think has been mainly resolved by a letter to parents. Considering the Harris entrance is staffed every morning it would be useful if staff could wave parents on when attempting to pull in?

Although I think there is a real need for more public toilets generally not sure if I, as a female, would be keen to use that particular one if it were to be returned to use. That part of the rye is like an island, always feels cut off and a bit remote, although the grounds that surround the toilet block could be lovely as the planting is great. My feeling is that that area needs "humanising", its a bit bleak standing there waiting for a 484 bus!, and a commercial let that maybe combined a proviso that public toilet facilites should be provided and maintained would be really useful. After all isn't the Peckham Rye Cafe a commercial enterprise? Maybe the cycle shop if it provided facilities plus cycle hire for use on the rye, like the set up in Dulwich park, would have been the thing to join up the two sections of the common.
