OK ED new age organic mums, I have no problem with breast feeding in Public, why should you be relegated to the back room toilets to breast feed your child? but WHY do some of your INSIST parking the triple baby buggy in the window of Cafe Nero and breast feeding your child in full view of the bus stop outside the window? My daughter (7) was on her way to school when some woman decided to feed her child at 8:00am in full view of 7 school children waiting for their bus, TOTALLY inappropriate, selfish, stupid and arrogant!!. Two of the girls filmed the event on their mobile phones and are considering posting on You Tube, as a parent, I gave them my blessing. So watch out for Cafe TittyLatte on You Tube this weekend. Maybe they will have more consideration?

Ondine is so right, East Dulwich is literally going downhill. In fact I am surprised you moved to Camberwell. Due to the high incidents of severe subsidence in this area, if you stayed a bit longer, your house would have probably gently moved towards Camberwell anyway.
Has a father I would not to upset that my child had witnessed a baby being breastfed, but would be worried about sending one so young with a mobile on a bus, recent attempted abdunction of girls of that age see other threads. My very large and tough sons have both had mobiles taken off them at gunpoint so suggest not always good idea for your child to have one unless it looks like a brick. Also would be worried about them having access to youtube at that age!
Actually you'd be surprised how many people still object to breastfeeding in public. Strangely enough, it's usually women. Men seem to get either sheepish about it, or try to cop a quick look; kids for the most part are curious, and women seem to have sharply divided opinions on it.
I b/fed my babies here, there and everywhere but chickened out on the terrace of the House of Commons, where I made my loud and grabby 9 month old suffer the indignities of a bottle. She was not impressed and kept hauling my shirt up, outraging the crusty MPs around us. She's 9 now and I'm sure she'd be happy to enlighten Cowbear's littl'un. After snatching her mobile of course, since we're SE5 rednecks.

How true, Ganapati.

My guess would be that, on the one hand, men see knockers as a bit of fun. Jugs are paraded in front of them on a daily basis in the tabloids. Girls in the street are happy to display the lions share of their melons in skimpy clothing for all the see.. and many a simple fella has been cheered by way of a sideways glipse of some finely-shaped hooters (through a pair of mirrored sunglasses)


I dunno. Maybe women are just less mature about these things.

Hardly - I don't intend it. I'd had a few glasses of wine. I think comments like that are too easily ignored though. I know it was said in favour of the argument but it's the fact of women being seen as objects even though it may be unconscious. I'm no rabid feminist. I don't mean to be incitive - I was bringing attention to a throw-away comment.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
