I have a 5 year old with sensitive skin who needs all cotton school trousers. The shops that normally sell them i.e. M&S, Nigel's Eco Store etc are out of stock. Anyone know of anywhere else that still has them for a 5 year old boy please [that aren't too pricey]??

Worth calling our local stores to check their stock. I share your frustration, my daughter has severe eczema and its been a nightmare. Her uniform is grey, I've had to opt for black as her skin has to be my priority with reoccurring infections. It's a horrible business this polyester uniform!


Good luck xx

I had the same problem last year. In the end, I even ordered the girls SkinKind trousers from M&S which just about fit! But those look out of stock too :(


I also made him some (very simple) trousers, so not sure if you have a sewing machine lying around...?


Hopefully your school is quite understanding, and maybe if you find ordinary grey cotton trousers (chinos, cords?) until M&S restocks?

    • Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.
    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
    • The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
