Hi Toast

We didn't get in but we live in Ryedale so I wasn't very hopeful. I may give the waiting list a go as we are 817m from Fairlawn and the furthest distance they have offered to date is almost 784m. It's a miserable affair.


Am so hopping mad that Southwark are holding back until after the elections due no doubt to their monumental f*** ups last year.


I just want to know where my son is going...

Have you seen the numbers though - it's mental 340 applications for 90 places at Fairlawn but that's with 30 additional places (a bulge class??) so it would have been 340 for 60 places.



Meanwhile I can't park in my road at 3pm for parents coming to pick their children up from school as they live so bloody far away


It can't continue like this

They will not all be first choices though, that includes parents who chose other schools further up the preference list

That's a legacy from when they were not so popular!


Mr Bosher told me himself last year he always has kids that fail to turn up on the first day but they have to give a full 2 weeks before they can give the places to someone else. So you may hear soon.

    • 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...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
