Signed and sent. Traffic and pollution in Dulwich Village is much worse than previously. As a pedestrian, plumes of smoke to contend with and drivers eager to get going are driving through amber/red lights. If this is what the majority choose, fair enough, but let's have some discussion around it and the opportunity to have a say.

I too have had issues - I couldn't purchase my permit and whilst I was online trying to do it, was ticketed! I reported it to parking services at the council and am in on-going contact with them. They say they have reported my issue to their subcontractor who will look at the issue. I will copy the thread and send it on.

I'm just wondering whether anyone else had seen the demo/large group of people occupying Goose Green roundabout on Bank Holiday Monday May 7th and knew what it was about?

Dulwich Village Infants are having their Christmas Fair on Saturday 9th between 12pm and 2.30pm at the Lake Building - so the building opposite the post office/estate agents in Dulwich Village. Jingle jars, Santa, food and cake. Heaps of fun for all.

My twins have just started there and I'm really impressed. I spent several hours settling them in over the past few days and I can only say what a positive environment it was. The staff are gentle and caring and the place has a calm yet active feel to it. Yes, the admin is terrible. I rung and emailed several times before I managed to get a response but it is definitely worth persevering.

I've just had various treatments from Kayleigh and am over the moon with the outcome and the price. She's very professional and was incredibly patient around my twin children who wanted to touch everything. Kayleigh deserves to have a successful business....and I for one will continue to use her great service.

Thanks very much for posting - really helpful.

Thanks Edanna - Yes, all very disappointing really. The local authority are a big employer so really should be able to accommodate flexible working/home working. I've made one last attempt to resolve this matter with them and have come up with another alternative, which means me working longer hours than my original proposal with some home working. I've also contacted ACAS re conciliation.

The cost of childcare for twin babies in my two closest nurseries is roughly ?240 per week per child (for a 3 day week). ?480 per week in total. I earn ?400 per week. Working from home would mean I could reduce the childcare costs - family and friends have said they could take care of the babies whilst I'm on the premises working upstairs. They don't feel confident or comfortable looking after twins with me being over an hour away.... juggling twin babies is pretty demanding. They would however do so for half a day in the knowledge that mum is close by. It is not the right of the individual i.e. me to go back to work flexibly, but it is a statutory right for my employer to carefully consider my proposal - and they haven't done that. The reaction I got when I first muted this was 'we need bums on seats'! Where is the reasonable consideration in that?

Thanks Princess. I've looked at this and am entitled to some free legal advice. I can choose a law firm (and top up the costs) or use the panel solicitors approved by the insurers (and have costs paid in full), I take it, from your response, this is what you did. From doing a bit of surfing people have questioned using the panel solicitors because they are often use associates to do the bulk of the work(i.e. not long out of law school)? I'm not sure about that....?

I've sent you a PM with more details. There is a more detailed explanation of detrimental to the function of business. I was in a union for ten years then changed jobs didn't join the union and thus now don't have union support! I'll have a look at all your suggestions Fuschia, thanks

Thanks for the info. They've stated detriment to the function of the business. I suggested a trial which they turned down. In fact, I've suggested a couple of options but they won't budge. I will look at Acas link now.
