My step daughter is about to turn 14 and has said she'd like a watch for her birthday. We'd really like to just buy it so that it's at least a bit of a surprise but have no idea what kind of style to choose. We've been looking around at places like this..http://www.tictactime.co.uk/shop-online-watches-ice-watch-_______1____2213_1___________________________.html and the colourful ones seem quite popular at the minute but should we go for something more calssic? Is she too young for that? Are we completely mad to think we could choose one??

My 14 year old also wanted a watch as a present last Christmas. She's had a couple over the years but of course their tastes change when they hit teenage years.


On her wishlist was a watch from Casio (burgandy digital face and silver type strap ?28 on the ASOS website). Something I wouldn't have thought she would like but daughter has worn it every day since Christmas. Had to have the strap readjusted.


I would also go with a local shop with lots of selection so it can be taken back if not approved of!

    • DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?     
    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.
