Hiya lovely people smiling smiley x

I?m doing Xmas hampers or gift bags for families who have had it rough. I would like to help out these families by purchasing items for them and Gifting it to them.

This is my first year doing this. I was in the same position as these families and I was in need of essential items and kids items during the pandemic when my husband lost his job. So I got help and I was so so happy and it helped me so I want to return that helping hand and help out those who are going through a rough time right now. And when I can help them out it puts a smile on my face as it did when I received help.

These families where referred to me via the schools both my children attend. I spoke to both headteachers and the staff who help families in need and they refer them on to me. They were happy I was doing this as they said that sadly they weren?t doing it due to covid. They couldn?t accept donations.

I have made an Amazon wish list with some items that were requested by the families. Please do have a look on the link any donation made would be very appreciated. The link is: [www.amazon.co.uk]

Examples of items that can be donated:

Chocolate/sweets

Gift sets for him/her

Toiletries

Make up

Clothing

Toys - board games, etc

Thank you for taking time in reading my post. Anything is very much appreciated x

- Rude Evri delivery in SE22
  
  By ak0910 · Posted 21 minutes ago
  
  Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude. We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply. Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners. If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them

  Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid. It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

  Hello. Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀 I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher. You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times. I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn. Give me a call or text on 07730 402336. I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too. I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform. Natalie.
