Hoping to make it for crumpets as well.


Elizabeth, loved your story - hope you enjoyed the park anyway. Apparently you aren't the only one with baby brain today. I've just cooked possibly my worst meal ever (and my husband would tell you that's quite a feat) after using a whole jar of stir fry paste instead of the two teaspoons I realise with hindsight I should of used.


Jenny, sorry to hear the spd has hit again. Get well soon.

Ladies,


Thank you for your kind responses to my tale of woe!

Bertie & I are going to try our Damndest to make it to the Crooked Well for crumpets tomorrow, so we look forward to seeing some of you there. (That is, f we don't accidentally end up at the Brockwell Lido instead.)


XX from Elisabeth

Hello everyone, haven't been on here for a while as been on holiday. Is anyone doing the power pramming on Peckham rye? I e mailed the lady that does it (liz I think) and haven't heard back. I am really keen to do it. Also is there a meet up this Tuesday? I have maggies 8 week injection and weigh in at 2 so it would be great to meet up before that.


Hope you are all well is the crooked well meet up every Friday as that's only down the road from me...


Hope all mums and baby's are well and getting to enjoy the sun while you can,

Lovely to see so many of you this morning. And welcome to baby bertie! He is gorgeous! This was my third time, think its a lovely group!

We are off to sweden (eeeks first flight for baby) but look forward to powerpramming, cinema, and vino on our return!

Oh how i love maternity leave! Swapping lunch in the park for a hot day in the office anyone?

Intend to enjoy it whilst it lasts:)

We've done the Peckham baby cinema and highly recommend it. Hopefully Max will let me see the end next time rather than demanding a nappy change. A couple of tips - you have to leave your buggy just outside the theatre so best not to turn up with the bottom tray loaded with stuff. And it didn't sound like the volume was turned down much, so don't make your first visit a loud action film.

Lucy, I'm the same with not hearing back about Power Pramming. I think I'll turn up and take my chances.

No back scooting here - sounds v cute.

Okay I think I'll turn up on Monday at 12.30 for Power pramming and see if she turns up. If not I am sure a few of us can go for a walk and coffee! I wish I could come to the cinema but I have just signed up for mum and baby Pilates, it could be great or Maggie could decide its not for her! :)


Have a great weekend everyone and see some of you on Monday..


Lucy

I also emailed Liz before I went last time and didn't hear back, so I ended up phoning and speaking to her and I then later got an email from her!


I can't go this Monday, but basically if you turn up they meet outside the cafe (it's pretty obvious as its the group in sporty gear with prams!) and Liz is the one without a pram. It's ?6.50 and just turn up 5mins before if it's your first time as you need to fill out a quick form. I'd also take a mat/rug to lie on when doing lying down exercises, I didn't cos I did t know, but someone kindly let me share theirs.


Have fun!

Hi ladies

For those of you who I saw on Friday, bit of unfortunate news, Ollie has developed chicken pox :-( First spots came out yesterday meaning he was contagious from Thursday so obviously concerned about him having passed it to the babies. From what I can gather babies under 1 don't react badly to the infection as they still carry our immunity (if you've had it before) Sam is snuffly and off his food but no spots as of yet but he's pretty much guaranteed to get it.


So sorry if it has been passed on but he had no signs of it on Friday.

I shall be spending the week quarantined with two poorly babies, eek!!


Fingers crossed for no other spotty babies x x

Nikki - Bummer re pox...oh well at least you'll get it over and done with! Hopefully a week of solitary confinement won't drive you too mad. Shout if you need anything xx


p.s I still have your bag from the bottles - I'm breaking Dexter little by little...and I owe you lunch so once you're out of solitary I shall repay you!

We did Baby Swimming at Michael Tippett School in Herne Hill with my first baby when she was 6 months. The group is small, the pool is a lovely little heated pool and the instructir was good. Unfortunately our little girl despised swimming and we had to quit after she screamed her way through 3 lessons. Two years on and we have just come back from holiday in Mallorca where she refused to put more than a toe in the pool or ocean...she's obviously just not a water baby!


Details of the classes are here: http://www.babyswimming.co.uk/pools/hernehill.html

I'm currently doing baby swimming at Guy's hospital using Little Dippers, as are a few other Spring Babies. Amelie and I are both enjoying it. The pool is lovely and warm and the changing facilities are great. The classes book up really quickly but if you check their website frequently they are always adding new ones.


For our lessons amelie has to wear Huggies swim nappies (Boots and Sainsbury sell them) and then swim pants over the top (Little Dippers send you some if you are on their course).

We did the same as Rebecca at Michael Tippet for my eldest and really enjoyed it but do think all the courses are really expensive.


We've been taking Sam to the jelly baby sessions at Peckham pulse which has an amazing hydro pool which is massive and lots of big changing facilities and I think 3.50 a session but you need to get them a few days on advance as they do sell out.

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
