She's 6 and has been unwell on and off since November- tonsilitis, then a tummy bug, then chicken pox over the Christmas hols. She seemed to be getting over the cp but then last week went downhill again- intermittent high temperature (39.9 today), very lethargic and has been sick a few times.

I will of course take her to the GP but if anyone has anything useful to offer I would be grateful.

I've been through bad phases with mine, when it seems to be just one bug after another after another, compacted one year by the two oldest getting chicken pox either side of a school half-term holiday. We have had winter seasons when one or another has seemed to be ill for almost 3 mths coming out of one thing into another. In the whole grand scale of things it has always been minor illnesses but worrying at the time and esp when it seems relentless.


Just have to grin and bare it, do get her checked but she will soon be out of it and you will have winters when you don't remember her being ill :)

Latest bug sounds like what my 2 (4 & 6) had before Christmas. Sorry to say, it took mine about a week each to get over it. Nothing that wrong just VERY lethargic with high temps coming and going and the odd sick bout. If you have the time, just get the duvets out and lots of cbeebies / films etc. I would almost have enjoyed the excuse to slow down if it hadn't been the week before Christmas!!!


But you have my sympathies, what with all that's gone before it for you too.

My daughter has been on and off this winter catching everything. Its been a bad winter for bugs and illnesses to say the least. My daughter is 3 and started pre-school in September, since starting she had a constant cold that has only just cleared up. She missed the last 4 weeks due to staph infection, vomiting bug, chesty cough and fever. Its just been everything in one. She's never been a child to get ill apart from UTI's. I've just ordered a load of Sambucol online to boost her immune system and am going to continue to give it throughout the summer too. Hope your daughter is back to her usual self soon, sympathies here too xx

      I don't think it is time restricted...the Southwark noise team's website says....(oh and look at the very first item on the list....;-))   Noise issues and nuisances that we can deal with We can help if you're being disturbed by noise coming from: amplified music TV parties nightclubs and pubs including people outside making noise DIY home renovation some construction sites barking dogs alarms / car alarms odours and fumes from commercial properties smoke commercial venues and events dust or noise from some works or equipment in the street fireworks at night from 11pm to 7am - extensions exist for the following festivals: first day of Chinese New Year until 1am the following day on the day of Diwali until 1am the following day New Year's Eve until 1am on New Year's Day 05 November until midnight

      Surely nobody is going to want books in poor condition, unless they are rare and possibly valuable?

      Noise from Wide Awake festival

      Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk.  I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.

      Nursery Recommendations

      By Mary Mac · Posted

      Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend.
