Yes, another request for a cleaner...

Hi


Busy couple looking for an awesome cleaner for our house, around 2 hours per week.

We've had a few 'OK' cleaners. But I want someone that can do the job better than I can, who thinks of all the extras and leaves our house like a show home.


We're not untidy, or dirty. But we are short on time. Can you help us with


- Stripping the bed and making it up with clean sheets and plumped pillows.

- Dusting and hoovering in all the nooks and crannies.

- Cleaning the kitchen (work surfaces, mopping, emptying the dishwasher, tiny bits of washing up) and taking the rubbish out to the wheelie bin.

- Cleaning the bathroom including Viakal on the taps.

- Tidying up our living room, such as putting magazines to one side, putting cushions back in place, hoovering sofa, ensuring decorative items are back in place on shelves. Occasionally cleaning the floor with wood floor cleaner.

- Dust, hoover and tidy master bedroom; folding a few clothes or putting things like jewellery or hairbrushes back in their places.


We are near Honor Oak Park. As we're hoping this will be a regular service, I'd love actual references and recommendations from people. I don't want someone who's just going to do a basic clean as we could do that ourselves. Hope there's someone out there who will make us smile with the little extras. We can provide all cleaning products and we'll pay a fair wage.


Gosh, this post makes us sound like messy, lazy toddlers but you know how it is. Your house just gets.. lived in!


Thanks

    • "Mysterious owners" 😆  If only there was a powerful search engine at our fingertips to find out such deep secrets.        
    • It's the "due to commercial reasons" line again that is vexing. Last year it seemed, although there was a similar level of objection, that the reasons were commercial - Gala didn't appear entirely prepared to run 3 more events, or more likely didn't have sufficient interest from other promoters / organisers who could 'sub-let' the site as with Brockwell Park (I believe?). This year they appeared more organised, had another year to plan & prepare, to the extent they actually had names for two of the three new events which indicated to me that they had third party promoters / organisers in place.  So yes, it does make you wonder whether the repeated level of objection, combined with the impending elections, led to the council 'advising' that maybe they shelve it again? I'm afraid I can't see the whole extension application just being a ruse to guarantee permission for the 'regular' event. Gala are a commercial venture with ambition - every festival's business plan is to expand, expand, expand, year on year on year. Gala won't give up until they have taken over the whole park for a Summer of Raves, and the mysterious owners are on their yachts counting their ££££
    • Thanks for that. Maybe forthcoming elections have stymied the 7 day request? If Labour get back in, do we think GALA will try with greater success in 2027?
    • Better late than never, same obscure reason as previously for not going ahead with the extended plan... "Due to commercial reasons, the event organisers have withdrawn their application to hold a 7- day event over two weekends. The application has been revised to request the use of Peckham Rye Park to hold a 4-day event over one bank holiday weekend with the following schedule: • Onsite: Monday 11 May 2026 • GALA: Friday 22 – Sunday 24 May • On the Rye Festival: BH Monday 25 May • Off-site Sunday 31 May 2026 This is the same event programme that was delivered in 2025."  GALA 2026 consultation findings report 1519.pdf
