I agree wholeheartedly with the 'why' the increase in muggings with school-aged children. I prepared my Year 6 daughter to go it alone by providing her with 2 years of self defense (just in case), preaching situational awareness (paying attention to what's around her at all times), the 'give it all up' talk and told her a phone was her perogative. She bought her own phone with her own cash (we foot the bill for the phone number) and she is aware she will be replacing her own phone if it is robbed from her. With this knowledge, she NEVER has it out unless it's an emergency, or she is around many adults at a busstop with the hope this makes her less attractive as a victim. At the end of the day, the preparing them is all we can do and hope they NEVER need it.

I heard about these cases. And it still goes on. My son said that his classmate was robbed on Hinkley Road. The parent committee recommended installing the mobile tracker https://www.mspy.co.uk/free.html. Do you still have similar cases? I heard that the police have not yet found the robber.

      Milk delivery

      By Sue · Posted

      Off topic, but when I was a kid in Streatham, long ago, apart from the milkman (rarely if ever milkwoman),  who also delivered yoghurt - very exotic - in little glass jars, we also had regular deliveries of coal, bread and cheesecakes (not the kind we know now, they had coconut on top), fruit and veg,  and paraffin (both pink and blue). I'm not entirely sure we have lost "something amazing" by buying milk in shops. The glass bottles were left on the doorstep and the metallic tops were pecked through by birds getting at the cream/milk. Or else the bottles were nicked.  And then there was the rag and bone man.... bell and horse and cart, just like Steptoe. God I'm old. We didn't have supermarket deliveries. We didn't have supermarkets. I remember the first supermarket opening in Streatham. It  was quite amazing having to walk round and  put your own shopping in a basket. As you were ..... Sorry OP and admin.

      Yep, I hear you. Been waiting for modern milkman to these parts and plan to try them out. I still remember Dennis, our Egg-man, from my childhood, who used to deliver dozens in his Citroen 2C and came to collect the boxes the following week. Happy Days.

      I always feel we lost something amazing when we moved away from home milk delivery with glass bottles using electric floats to driving to supermarkets and buying milk in plastic bottles. Hindsight says we should have valued the good old milky more
