Hi everyone


Expecting my second on April 11th (my daughter is 3), and would love to join in with the meet-up on 21st if there's space for another bump?! Would love to meet everyone, and hopefully establish little social circle for #2 like we had for our first one (through NCT that time), so many thanks for getting everyone together!

Hi everyone,


I am a midwife with 35 years experience running baby massage classes (IAIM trained) either at one of my venues or in your own home. My 4-week course is ?50 and I offer a discounted rate for people who host a group in their own home (i.e., your NCT friends).


I have one space left for an upcoming course starting on Friday 23rd January.


Also soon starting antenatal classes and individual postnatal advice (including breastfeeding support) in your own home.


Please contact me at [email protected] for more information.

Hi Everyone,


Would also love to join if there is space left? Baby no 2 is due in March and have a little boy who is turning 3 in March!


Would be great to meet others to hang out with and establish some play buddies for number 2...


Thanks for setting up this thread!!

Hi


Happy weekend everybody - Just a quick post to say thanks again Ginny for speaking to the EDT about Wednesday night.


Will be coming straight from work (so will most likely order some food at the pub too) but I'm looking forward to meeting you all. Should be a great evening!


See you soon.

Evening all,


I hadn't checked the thread since before Christmas, but luckily checked today so hope to join you at the EDT with another friend, Simone, who's expecting her second end of May. Now signed up to email updates. Look forward to meeting you all soon, Fi

Hi everyone


Sorry, I'm a bit late joining the spring babies club... I didn't know such a thing existed, it's a great idea! I'm due on 25th March and I'm a first timer too! I'm away this week, we're trying to make the most of the calm before the inevitable storm and so can't make the drinks tomorrow evening, but I'd love to meet up in February...

I would love to come. Can you put me down as a maybe (anxiety permitting) I am due my first in April 18th and really need to meet other women. I would love to come to any future meet ups if I am not able to get to tomorrows. Just found this.

Hi ladies,


I just wanted to drop a quick line to say that a space has become available for the 'midwife-led group antenatal course' due to start next week for 6 consecutive weeks. Ideal for Spring babies!


If you were interest in knowing more about labour, birth and those early weeks with baby, and getting to know a group of other local expectant mothers due around the same date as you, drop me a line at [email protected], PM or visit my website: www.ariadnasole.com I would be happy to offer a discount considering the short notice.


Here is a link to the course: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?25,1320501,1320501#msg-1320501


Have a lovely pregnancy and enjoy your bumps!

    • Direct link to joint statement : https://thehaguegroup.org/meetings-bogota-en/?link_id=2&can_id=2d0a0048aad3d4915e3e761ac87ffe47&source=email-pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogota-breakthrough&email_referrer=email_2819587&email_subject=pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogot_-breakthrough&&   No. 26 | The Bogotá Breakthrough “The era of impunity is over.” That was the message from Bogotá, Colombia, where governments from across the Global South and beyond took the most ambitious coordinated action since Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza began 21 months ago. Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.

    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
