Hi EDmummy


I have always travelled alone with my little boy in the buggy to Stansted on the 78 bus from opposite Peckham Rye Park(turning left from East Dulwich Rd into Peckham Rye, first bus stop) to Liverpool street and then the Stansted express (didn't want too many changes, stairs etc so it worked for us).

The bus takes about 35min and I don't mind the journey but always make sure we have plenty of time (traffic) and then the Stansted express train to Stansted 50min (the Stansted express is getting so expensive though).


If anyone knows of an easier route I would be interested in knowing it!

We've used chauffered parking - pull up outside departures, get all baby kit out, car driven away & returned at arrivals when you land. We did the sums and at about ?50 for a week it was certainly comparable with the cost of two adult returns on the stansted express. I was really surprised as I thought it would cost an ARM & a leg, but we found it a nice stress free surprise!

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By dan b · Posted

      London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom.

      Has anyone retrospectively fit aircon in a loft conversion?

      This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.

      Councillor Jon Hartley

      By MaryT · Posted

      Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
