Come on ladies the worst has to be 'Katy's song' from I Can Cook. I don't mean the slippy dippy soap song, you know, that awful thing she does with the guitar when summarising the recipe, ie "tear up some chicken, pop it in a pot, splash some milk, add a bit of pepper". Total nonsense. Doesn't rhyme, doesn't sound good and that grin...

Katy isn't lovely, she's strangely sexless. Like Ceri. I don't know how the BBC do it but their presenters are all entirely nothing. Which maybe what you want from kids presenters I suppose.

(Apart from Sid I suppose, he's got something about him. Must be cos he's a Camberwell boy)

The spring time song was best, with the little boys in their tuxedos. You had to love it my daughter did. She learn't how to sing happy birthday to you last week from the little card showing section thingy'm'jig! Just in time for Nanas birthday this weekend. Now I will have to get a card to them in time for her 2nd birthday in February (hers not Nanas ha!)


Come Outside brings back memories, I used to love it myself when I was little.


Daughter loves;

Waybuloo - she now tries to do yoga whilst watching, rather cute really

Timmy Time - keeps her giggly and shouting all through breakfast

Night Garden - tears after dinner if she misses it

Chuggington - she even sings the song now, chuggy chugga chugga


3rd and bird is lovely, if I might say so myself. Not that I watch it myself..

"My hubby has a very big soft spot for that blonde girl who was in Higgle de Piggledy House"


aaah, the lovely Ms Honeywell. Can people stop bringing up lovely kids tv presenters please, I'm trying to get some work done.

*drifts off into daydreams, Emma Forbes .....sigh*

Oh, yes, Numberjacks has frightened my son since he was wee - the Teacher used to have him in floods, and now he is three he is still scared of those Number Takers but loves watching it anyway from behind his hands, bless him.


Can't imagine anyone fancying Mr Tumble, but I do rather admire his performing skills. He does make me laugh.


The other programme I can't bear is that one based on a farm where the real animals are sort of animated so they talk. It seemed instructive enough on first viewing, but it's awful. The narrator has such a naff voice and the stories are boring. And what about that young bloke who dances on Boogey Beebies? Where did they find him? What a plonker!


God I watch too much CBeebies.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
