My daughter is just about to enter the world of crawling...... just as my husband is going away and I have to pack up a 3 bed house on my own to move abroad - handy!!!! Anyway, I want to make sure I can 'close her off' safely, and was wondering what advice people have about room dividers mainly, but also stair gates. or are they actually the same thing? Excuse my ignorance on this one folks. Any help/advice greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone knows of any I can buy very cheaply as I am only going to need them for about 4 weeks before we leave the country and will buy them new where we are going. Thanks everyone.

I'd advise one with no bar to step over if you can, especially if you are going to and fro carrying stuff. We have the Lindam one.


It might be worth considering a playpen if you don't want to screw anything into the walls? Even pressure fit gates will take paper off and/or scratch the walls we have found.


Also, my crawling baby still goes in the jumperoo or activity station when I need to keep him in one place.


Just some alternative ideas!

Thanks so much for your advice on this - all so helpful. Have thought of a playpen and jumper, but again don't really want to have to buy those here for the sake of 4 weeks when we'll be buying new ones when we get abroad! Trying to come up with some creative ideas around this, or see if I can borrow these items for a month! Thanks again

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

      By Rockets · Posted

      Have you complained to the solicitor directly and did they respond within the 8 weeks they have under their code of conduct - I presume they have and this is why you have escalated further to the SRA? If he doesn't respond in a timely fashion per the SRA code of conduct then I am sure they will need to take action.

      Where can you smell Wood Burning stoves in East Dulwich

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      What a bunch of ignorant nimbies.  Their own tweet conspicuously ignores the actual content of their own article FFS. Immediately after the incorrect paragraph quoted about it being unlawful to burn coal wood etc they sit out the actual position:   "However, the use of authorised smokeless fuels in an open fireplace is allowed, as well as burning smoke-generating fuels in an approved stove or burner."   leaving that out is as thick as flying into the amazon rainforest on a private jet to attend Cop 31 thus week.

      UPDATE FOUND!!

      I had to pull this cat back from speeding traffic as she was almost clipped - TWICE -  by passing motorbikes on Underhill Rd. Needless to say, I was seething that anyone would let this cat out onto the streets, specially a street that I struggle to cross myself. When I initially approached her, I thought she had already been injured. By some miracle, she wasn't, she was just paralyzed by fear. Do NOT let this cat out onto the streets.

      Are there any other executors? Is the solicitor a soke practioner or part of a firm? Are you and your fellow beneficiaries behaving well?  You will want to take proper  legal advice (which this is not) but you can have an executor removed by the court if they are refusing to communicate with you. I would just do that. Tell him you are doing it, tell him you have reported him to the Law Society (if you have) and tell him you will be challenging his fees with the legal services ombudsman. This all sounds outrageous to me and this solicitor doesn't sound fit to practice. Three years sounds far too long for a low value estate comprising mostly of a house. He should have sold that or rented it out whilst he was waiting to administer the estate.    Sounds like he has cost you all a lot of money.
