We flew to Sicily with daughter aged 6 months. She was breastfed so no extra luggage/gadgets needed, and breastfeeding when taking off and landing meant that she had a comfortable flight.

While we were there, local people went out of their way to help and be friendly - a baby was the perfect ice-breaker.

Agree that you will have a great time. We are enjoying our first holiday at the moment with our 8 mo. We borrowed a maclaren for the trip, but it has been a nightmare keeping her shaded (parasol is useless). Wish we had brought our bee and bought that new silver shade that blocks out uv rays. Also, and you may know this already but I didn't, if you are flying with BA, you can choose your seats straight after booking your tickets thereby increasing your chance of getting a cot seat.

Uptime cannot believe you did not consult with me on the buggy issue!! I am always surprised that people are so keen on maclarens as holiday buggys for babies (rather than toddlers) as the sun shade is rubbish. We took our then 8m old to Australia for a month with the baby jogger city mini - best travel buggy ever!

      The Mansion Tax

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!

      I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Cancerian · Posted

      Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
