Hi all,


I just wanted to ask some advice as really stuck for things to do at the moment. My little one is nearly 15months and having finished baby sensory I wanted to find at least one thing to do regularly each week. I have tried Gymbabes/tumbletots and although it was great for him to crawl around and play with all the soft toys that's all it seemed to be for an hour and so you end up paying for just playing in a room!!! I would like something that doesn't cost a fortune and is a bit more interactive like baby sensory used to be until he grew out of it. Any advice/recommendations appreciated. Thanks

I go to Gymboree in Herne Hill with my 16 month old and we both love it, we also used to go to Gymbabes at St Faiths but I found it a bit grubby / noisy / random / too crowded and I think he was a bit overwhelmed by it as he spent a lot of time just staring at other children instead of doing anything. (Mildly annoying when you are paying ?7 a time to be there!) Granted he's also quite a bit older now than he was when we went there but he absolutely loves Gymboree and I've been really impressed by how nice and clean it all is and how adventurous he is when we go. There is some free play and some group stuff including bubbles and parachute games and I think the balance is just right, with much more songs & interaction than gymbabes. It is expensive though and you have to sign up for I think three months, although it's then nice that you see the same people every week. And he always naps really well afterwards which is a bonus.


I've also heard really good things about Whippersnappers and I'm going to try that soon too.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By NewWave · Posted

      I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.

      The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.

      Trades People

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      Do you mean that there are only very few trades people and that all of their thousands of happy customers post glowing reviews but most of them have only ever posted once to recommend said trade person on the trade person's own thread?   If so, I agree it's mysterious.
