Hi another school one from me.


My son still struggles with buttons on his trousers so I was wondering if anyone know of any trousers I can get with elasticated waist for the first year? They need to be black and he is not allowed joggers apart from PE.


He is also very tall for his age and typically wear 6-7 yrs old in clothes, would elasticated trousers go up that far in age? Any pointers would be most welcome, Thanks

John Lewis school trousers have the metal hook on the front which my son finds much easier. Although given they're elasticated at the back you don't actually need to unfasten them. Also think that Sansburys had elasticated ones with no fasteners last year.

A quick update on this in case there are other parents out there in the same boat. We have tried a few trousers now and it seems like the ones with the clasps are favourites so far. The zip/clasp was easier for him to manage than pulling up and down rather tight elasticated trousers....who knew?


We got some elasticated ones from M&S and they are going back as he finds them too tight but he likes the John Lewis and Sainsburys ones.


He is tall so is typically in 6-7 yrs old clothes by which time most seem to have stopped the elasticated waist (typically goes up to 4-5 yrs). Turns out it didn't matter as much as I thought as he easily managed the clasp and even preferred them.

      Phone box in front of Oru...

      I think there is still a legal requirement that BT keep phone boxes that get used (average number of calls in a year?) or if there isn’t another box within a certain radius. Or if it’s an old red box it might be listed but obviously it’s not. If BT wants to remove it, they need permission from the council , I think. So, I would imagine that the council can also request removal. So, it’s down to someone to ask the Goose Green councillors to have it taken away. I agree it’s a waste of pavement space and an eyesore.

      Has s anyone used this bakery in Brockley for bread delivery?  I’ve been thinking about it for a while.  They deliver by bike.  If so, what do you have delivered?

      Also it seems the PM is a bit annoyed that Rachel Reeves' story changed/amended within 24 hours. And this is why the public cares (well except those who will turn a blind eye to anything their chosen political party does). People were so sick of the lies and nonsense the Tories thrust upon us that they wanted a government that they could trust, that played by the rules. When senior members of that government do not do that it undermines trust in the established political parties at a time when the scariest political party is gaining momentum for not being either Labour or the Tories and, ironically, pitching themselves on the basis of trust.
