Looking for recommendations for good local builder to remove 3ft wide brick divide in kitchen, patch up ceiling and lay new floor. Recommendations welcome.

the mock cemetery at 25 Crebor Street is possibly even more atmospheric than Nunhead cemetery, which is where Jacqui the photographer displaying has done her most recent project - prints are displayed and for sale. I loved the jewellery from antique buttons and classy beads. I'm not sure about taking home one of the gas masks but I did lust after several of the gorgeous platters and bowls in colours of the sea and shore. A friendly bunch and worth the trip. Just across the road from Chris Sowe's fab photos at 172 Upland too.

Heber never did consult parents, pupils or the wider community on the introduction of, or any subsequent changes to the uniform (as guidelines say schools should do). Change has been announced (a good few times) as if it's a reminder. Don't let anyone tell you any different. I had a child in the school when they didn't have a uniform. When the previous head brought in uniform he said it was 'to reinforce the school's ethos' but when I asked him what the ethos was he was unable to answer. Please suggest an ethos here......
And an alternative one (the one you want) here .....

I've had three children at Heber who've all done well regardless of their conformity or nonconformity with uniform. There's no correlation between uniform/neatness/black shoes/short hair/colour of hair band and achievement, and Heber should just get it into their heads that whatever they think is broken won't be fixed by shirty letters home and first news through child mail. If my child is told off for not bearing the Heber logo I will regard this with grim displeasure. If the school wishes to raise it with me, fine, I have a whole range of responses ready. The school's full of great kids and supportive parents and making the place neater won't make it better; they should rewind and welcome everyone back to school instead of barking out new rules. No smiling before Xmas has never worked as a policy for parents or kids. Lighten up Heber, we're all fine out here.
