Hi everyone


My husband and our 1 year old recently moved to Forest Hill and are looking to meet some new local parent friends. I am a working mum but am taking a break over summer, so I'd love to have some mums to explore the area with. We are also keen to make parent friends for playdates at the weekend. We're a really adventurous family and like to be out and about, but equally happy to have a playdate/coffee date and discuss the joys & challenges of early family life!


Look forward to hearing from you.

Hello and welcome!


I've just moved to Forest Hill/Sydenham from ED and was wondering who else lives up this way. (There's an SE23 forum, but it's not as busy as this one.)


If there are quite a few of us, perhaps we could arrange some local mum drinks/a get-together with the children.

Hi everyone


Think this thread kind of faded, but I met up with some fanastic East Dulwich mums to be today (I am pregnant with my second) and it made me think we should try a Forest Hill meet up as I'd also love to meet Forest Hill mums. I'm happy to organise one. PM or reply if interested, and I'll find us a date and venue...

Lovely to hear from so many to-be first and second time mums via pm and here. I am thinking a Saturday meet up as I work full time so can't yet meet in the week. We did one with some ED mums last Saturday and it worked really well and was lovely to meet so many mums.


Lets get the ball ralling... how about Saturday 7th Feb at 2:30. Depending how many come I can book a space at Canvas and Cream? I won't be bringing my little one, but if any mums are let me know.


Pm or respond here to let me know.

Hi! We are new to the area as well (FH, near Horniman to be precise!). I have a 2.5 yr old boy. Would love to meet up other mums/kiddos around here... Esp those interested in random coffee play dates / wine drinking sessions some evenings (mums only for the wine ones, of course!). ;-)

Sadly, I can't make it to the 7th Feb meet-up, if that's still happening. Have been meaning to try canvas n cream but have a birthday party instead to attend. Hopefully we can have another one in the near future? It's hard getting to know people via playgroups now!

Thanks! Keep us posted. :-)

Hi all


Looks like there's lots of interest in meeting, some on the 7th Feb and some later. Emilly and Mooncake can make it, so I'll book a space at Cookies on 7th, 2:30 for us, and if anyone else can join nearer the time let me know. After we meet I'll organise a second meet up too! X

Great- we can't book a table so I'll be there from 2:30... I'm not bringing my little one but I'll pm my personal details so you can contact me if needed.


For those who can't make it, the weather will be better post-Feb so will organise a Saturday playdate. Let me know if interested.

    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.
