Well independence is big deal for 11-12. So are there missions you can construct for them? Choose a recipe, shop and cook for it on their own and feed the family? Cinema/swimming on their own? Give them a budget to go off and buy some books/toys on their own?


Chessington big hit with my daughter at the moment. We have passes and she seems just the right age for the bigger rides.


Check peckham pulse and the summer scheme at Harris fitnEss.

Well I don't know if this would appeal to you daughter but we took our one for a pastry at Maison Beateaux in Soho. Whilst there we chatted to Tanya the owner. She told us that she also doubles up as the (art dealer) agent for Noel Fiedling!


The upstairs and basement are currently exhibiting his work which has a Bryan Ferry focus! It didn't cost a penny to look and she happily put on a video which he had also created. Our daughter was memarised and all it cost us was the price of a pastry!

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
