Its very dark in the winter. I am pleased that some dog owners put lights on their dogs. The owners sometimes surprise me, I think they need lights too. (Cyclist)

Do you let the kids play with the car keys? I do, and as such, never leave anything in the car that I would regret being nicked. People been our car 3 times. 2 iPods. One sat nav. They always leave the cd's. Adys Road.

Having our car broken into 3 times - 1 - sat nav and 2 iPods stolen 2 - ipod (stupid me) 3 - nothing to nick but glove compartment left open After number 2 I leave nothing worth taking in the car. All times, the car was locked, but the kids play with the keys............????????? Chancers maybe?

Surely dog owners who let their dogs off the lead can control their dog? Oh, I forget, some can't. (not directed at you, just the other dog owners who are slowly turning young children to fear dogs as the owners can't control them. I have experienced this many times in GG. My 4 YO fears dogs).

We did the Shoreham to Eynsford walk yesterday. You can extend this walk by getting off at Otford and walking to Shoreham first. Total walk time was 2.5 hours, but we are fairly fast walkers It wasn't particularly exciting as you are mostly in a valley, but, ITS BUGGYABLE!!!!! (though Otford to Shoreham is not when its been wet). Paths most of the way, good bird life, playground half way, Farm shop, Excellent food at the Plough pub (though a little pricy). The exception is towards the end when you reach Point 7. There are some good views at point 9 to 11 but from point 11 to 12, the path is fairly narrow and I would prefer to skip this bit with a pushchair. So from point 7, don't turn off and carry on ahead. I am looking forward to visiting again as its the first time we have done the bit from Shoreham to Eynsford. Also, there is a direct train from Peckham Rye meaning you can stay in the pub til the last train leaves. ;)

As a Dad, I would wholly recommend both. NCT has its uses but Hypnobirthing gave me some jobs to do, making me part of the birthing process too. We did it with Holly too. Go for both, you both (Mum and Dad)will benefit. Lee

Cycle. 15 minutes each way.

It looks good. Who needs parallel lines?

We look > forward to seeing you all, kindest, Richard Balfe. I just had my bike serviced in Balfes ED and they completed an excellent job. The bike had not had any maintenance done on it since purchase 11 years ago. A few new parts and a general service and its running like a new bike. Once home, google searches see the recommended parts as the most cost effective for their intended use, rather than use more expensive over-specced parts with multi uses. Would Evans do the same job? Maybe/maybe not, but I will be back to Balfes.

I heard and saw a rat today in the drain on Ondine Road. On the corner with Marsden Rd.
