Congratulations to the 2013 summer mums, I am a 2012 summer mum..can't believe it's been nearly a year, it goes really fast!


Just wanted to post here about the Dulwich NCT branch nearly new Summer sale..details below. I found this sale fantastic last year and highly recommend.


Summer Brixton, Dulwich and Streatham Branch Nearly New Sale - Saturday 11th May 2013

This is a great opportunity to buy nearly new baby equipment, clothes, toys and books for babies and young children at bargain prices, and support the work of the NCT.


The sale will be held at St Faith's Community Centre, Bottom of Red Post Hill, London, SE24 9JQ from 11am until 1pm


Entry is ?1.50 for adults, children are free plus free entry for all from 12.30pm. Members who bring their membership card receive priority entry for the first 15 minutes. Payment by cash or cheques only.

After a fantastic debut term Daisy Birtihing classes return on the 13th May , with all mummies to be renewing for a second term to really ensure we continue to work on the inner birthing muscles.

Want to know more ............

Daisy Birthing has a unique take on birth preparation and is so much more that a breathe stretch and relax class.


Classes include a range of more conventional techniques combined into a 1hr 15 min class which allows mums to learn as they move.


Daisy birthing has combined :


* Yoga inspired movements


* Traditional Active Birthing


* Birth Breathing Education


* Key Birthing Education


Classes will build muscle memory and help you find intuitive techniques to help you enjoy a more comfortable birth experience.


Classes cost only ?55 for a six week term and missed classes CAN be carried over.

Spaces are limited, please contact Nadine for further info.

Hey Philippa, I've just booked the usual spot in the EDT from 7pm on 21st. Can always cancel if ppl would rather try somewhere else... I gave them your name as won't be there until after 8:30 - starting NHS antenatal classes at Dulwich hospital that evening. Anyone else on the same course? (Feels like a bit of an overdose with NCT as well!)

Thanks Eimear - plus see you at NCT tomorrow.

I have only just been finding out about the NHS classes - so might see what you think before going for those as may well be some repeat of NCT?


Tortor - I think you're due 2 days before me (I'm 12th July) so would be good to catch up at the next drinks and compare notes!

Yes see you tomorrow Ginny and see you on 21st then Marlene! I know what you mean about overkill - I've just signed up for a hypnobirthing course as well - talk about a glutton for punishment! (Between the courses/midwife appts etc. being pregnant's beginning to feel like a full time job!! Lol!)

There is a great pregnancy yoga on a Saturday morning just off Bellenden Road, called Gaia studios and run by Barbara. 9.30am until 10.45am - small class of about 6 or 7 and she is great, pushes you so you feel like you have had a workout but also very conscious of everyone's stages and aches and pains! You can just rock up or book in via email [email protected]


Hope this helps and maybe see you there! xx

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
