Well done Steph. Did little madamn continue this good behaviour?


If anyone is interested (some of us already did this pre-baby) my NCT mum friends who are fed up with lack of sleep are organising Nicola from child sleep solutions to do a seminar on baby sleep. I honestly think her advice helped me establish a good routine.


We all thought she was fantastic when we did seminar and my friends were hoping for some more specific information regarding establishing some sleep training. They all have had winter babies too so all information will be baby age appropriate.


Please let me know if you are interested in joining their meeting. My friend is hosting at her house right by kings college hospital and they only need a couple more people. Cost is ?20 pp providing there are enough takers and they're a lovely bunch!


P.s I think the tues 3rd is pencilled as day but they can confirm.

Hi all,

I think spots are filled.

It works out ?20pp if 7-8 people club together I think. Check out her web address I think it's www.childsleepsolutions.co.uk but you can serch forum too. Nicola- highly recommended.

Good luck in your quest for sleep!

Lovely to see you all too! Thanks for reassuring me that the sleep will get better. It can seem a bit relentless at times, so it's good to sound off about it. We're away next week, down to Cornwall with my family, but hopefully catch up when we're back.

Sorry to miss this yet again, Daniel is finally settling into a good lunch-time sleep and didn't wake up til 2.45pm. I suspect this is going to be a habit from now on (not something I'm complaining about!) so think I'm not going to make many more, plus I'm going back to work quite soon too which would have put a stop to my coming anyway.


Anyway I would really like to keep in touch with you all, so will keep my eyes peeled for any meets that I can make. Plus if anyone fancies doing a morning thing possibly on a Friday or a Monday I'd be totally up for it!

Great to see people today, shame you couldn't make it Jane but i'd be up for doing something on a Friday or Monday. I've seen that the Crooked Well pub in Camberwell is doing something on a Friday morning (10.30-12) where they have baby experts?! Or the Old Nun's Head have a Mum's thing on Monday mornings. Also, a few of us went swimming yesterday at Peckham Pulse, 1.30 -2pm so possibly not the best time for you but it's in the hydrotherapy pool and free with Ivydale School if you put your name on the list. Anyway - just suggestions and happy to go to a cafe or host at mine one day.


Speak soon

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.

    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
