Hello EDFers


My wife and I have just bought a lovely house on Ryedale and will be moving in at the end of May. There are a few things that we were unsure about and wanted some help from you people....


Apart from any useful comments about the immediate area around Ryedale


We have a beautiful little 2 year old girl , Hannah and we are anxious to make sure that she settles in well having moved from North London and not really knowing anybody in the area. Can anybody recommend a Nursery nearby and can you tell us how long the wait would be to get Hannah in?


Are there any German grops for parents and little ones (Hannah's mummy is German) or are there any play groups ( Music classes/ children's entertainers in the park ( that kind of thing/activity) that they can attend?


Is there a Rudolf Steiner school nearby?


And finally a question from me Dad aka Simon


Can anybody recommend a really good builder/ somebody who can instal a kitchen down stairs loo and maybe knock a few walls down

Hi there, welcome! Can't helP on the German front but I've just enrolled my son to start at 'my favourite nursery' on upland road. If you pay a month of fees uPfeont it will secure you a place.. The waiting lists can be long so I'd start to do a ring around nOw..


I have a builder who is fab. I gOt him off the forum. If you would like his details pm me and I'll send you his number. He is local, super reliable and a nice guy.

Haberdasher's Aske, Hatcham, just over the border in LB Lewisham are planning to open a English/German biligual Free School next year (English in the morning, German in the afternoon). As this quite unusual and a new school, I have no idea what the catchment will be like!

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
