In August I realised the thermostat on my oven wasn't working. I called an oven repairman who is highly recommended by several people on the EDF. He shall remain nameless as we did not have a good experience with him. He wasn't able to find the right type of thermostat on the supplier website he uses and over the next few weeks - and then MONTHS - kept saying he couldn't find it in stock anywhere. By the time November(!) rolled around I decided it was time to try and find someone else to help!

I called Michael - 07508 229049 - and he was really flexible about coming round in an evening so I didn't have to take time off work. When he came round I explained to him that the other guy had said it was impossible to find the right thermostat. Michael thought that seemed odd so showed me the manufacturer website and suggested that I order the part myself so I remained in control of the situation. I called and they had it in stock; it arrived in two days and Michael came round the very next day and installed it - all for less money than the original guy had quoted.

As well as being really flexible on timings etc, Michael was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I can't recommend him enough. Once again, his details:

Michael - 07508 229049.

I hope this helps others.

  Well, this is sad news. Hopefully it won't go down the same path as The Palmerston when it changed hands. That is from great to dismal, literally overnight.

  And no queues at 1130 yesterday. Maybe everyone's had enough and switched to the Yodel and Evri app.

  Hi there guys, I hope you're well. I've recently done a term of Dance Yourself Fit, which began with a class at the Harris Girls Academy on the Nunhead side of the Rye, then transferred to the Charter School for Girls up by the old ED hospital. It's been so good and all the women attending have loved it too, but due to exams being on next term the classes are being discontinued in East Dulwich, much to our disappointment. They're moving them to Streatham, but that is not convenient for me and many of the others. This is a link to their site in case anyone is interested though: https://www.danceyourselffit.com I'm now looking for a replacement class that's not too expensive, keeps me moving energetically for an hour and is local and hopefully less than a tenner per lesson (this was about £72 for 8 classes I think?). Does anyone know of anything? I'm also looking for low-cost pilates classes to join too, if anyone has any recommendations for those too? Very best, Eleanor Also, just to add, what's been so nice is that it HASN'T been in a gym with lots of lively young lithe gazelle like creatures hopping about. It's been extremely inclusive for women of all sizes and shapes and really nice that it's been in schools not gyms. Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed!

  I'd also like to highly recommend Niko. He just replaced the extraction fan in our bathroom, having previously installed a new tap for us. Fast, professional and a really great guy.
