Hi there,


I am lucky enough to be a stay at home mum, and my son (who has just turned one) and I have much enjoyed the company of local friends and NCT mums over the past year. However I seem to be the only one not returning to work and wondered if there are any other fulltime mums out there who would fancy getting together / doing something a bit different like a gallery or something now and again. Invitation obviously extends to working mums too... not trying to be prejudice, but it seems to be very hard to schedule something in with my existing working mum friends!


Anyway, just looking for some lovely ED mums to hang out with now and again!

would love to meet up! but my little one is only 1 month old so not much fun atm...i am a full time student (or guess i was lol) but am now doing most work at home, but my husband goes to uni full time so im left alone with baby and jeremy kyle...as you can imagine not the funniest thing ever, then you get caught up with so many household chores...


nabz


i also live in nunhead!

We'd love to meet up. Am away till monday, but could do Tuesday. Mornings or post 3pm good for Oliver (17months) and I... Yes! Hang in there Nabz its true it get SOO much better. You won't believe us. Before you know it you'll be sounding like a well seasoned mum doing it all! Keep your chin up. Have you looked into the NCT tea mornings in Nunhead. There is a really good group for new mums. Check them out. Look forward to meeting up.
Just wanted to say it was lovely to meet you all this morning! Lovely to chat and maybe catch up next week (Jack my partner is off to Lisbon so will really need the grown up conversation!) Happy to have people at my place (assuming there aren't hoards!). Kim

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
