Depends what you like to do


Cinema - could recommend Mirror, Mirror


Lovely Walk - could recommend Shoreham in Kent (train from Peckham Rye)


Painting Crockery / Build a bear / something creative


with my 7 year old we like to cook together - and go for coffee / milk cake in a lovely cafe just the two of us - or about 1/2 hour shopping

If she's into ballet, Sadlers Wells are doing 'My First Sleeping Beauty' at the Peacock Theatre till the 13th with 2 shows a day. We went at the weekend and it was a lovely show, narrated to help understand the movements. And not too long. Places nearby too for a nice lunch afterwards.
Thanks for those. Have just got tickets for london eye as she and I love it and daddy not so keen. Like suggestion of ballet - did look at that and wonder how 'baby-ish' it would be - she's not so keen on babyish at the mo. Might well follow up with pirates afterwards - she'd like that! Thanks all

Ballet not that baby-ish at all....unless she's used to proper ballet performances. It just cuts out the longer story-telling bits (that frankly, I get lost at usually!) and focuses on the main, juicy story bits where there's more to see. The narration helps to explain the hand gestures and how they and the dancing tell the story.


If interested, it's coming to Bromley too, in May I think.

    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around. 
    • Some of us oldies would associate Grove with the old Grove Vale School (which I went to in the 1950s)
    • The toilets at this spot in the park have been vandalised to such an extent that they are now closed.
    • Hello! I'm looking for 2-3 baby gates I can borrow from 17th August - 6th September for a visitor.  Does anyone have any I could use? Thank you!
