Hi there


I am reluctant to have my son (19 months) sit in front of the telly, but sometimes I just need twenty minutes to get some things done...


He loves plum-vision.co.uk, but if i need to be on the computer he can't be on at the same time, so can anyone suggest any entertaining or educational DVDs? If they are in Italian, even better, but that might be asking too much.


Thank you

I love charlie and Lola - episodes are 11 minutes each (not that we've watched millions of them or anything...). The characters are lovely and lots of useful life lessons on the way without being preachy. Might be a little old for him at the mo but not for long.
How about the Tumble Tots DVD's - action songs for little ones (and you) to learn and encourages them to move around rather than just sit watching. My eldest has been addicted for over a year (now 4) and the youngest (just turned 2) is really getting into them too.

My two love the Very Hungry Caterpillar DVD, which has about 5 different Eric Carle stories on it. Very simple animation, lovely classical soundtrack. I got my copy really cheap in Sainsburys.


Otherwise, Peppa Pig is a firm favourite with my youngest, although tends to drive me a bit mad!

    • I went last week and would recommend. I was very happy to see pricing based on hair length and especially a fringe trim price. I live nearby and don’t need it fully styled / blown out after a cut (curly so usually prefer to do it myself) so I like that it is variable pricing in that way. 
    • Memes top of lordship haircut shampoo blow dry about £25  dulwich barbers hair cut about£22  jazzes haircut about £26 
    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.
