Hello all


There's a report coming out tomorrow about 'patchwork' childcare - i.e. working mums who are forced to use 2/3 sources of childcare (usually to keep costs down so after school clubs/grandparents who tend to be cheaper than nannies/childminders) In relation to this I need to film live with a mum tomorrow morning as she starts her drops offs pre work and then follow her her on journey to work - so preferably you should have two or more children, one at nursery/one at school so you have more than one drop off before getting on bus/train to work etc. We could pay ?150 fee for this. For more info please PM me ASAP. Thanks

I'm a bit too late for this but happy to share my experiences if you need more examples...


I have a child at school who goes to 5 days a week to breakfast club &school and 3 days a week to after school club. Husband and I each work from home one day on shifted hours so we can each do one pick up a week. Added to that is a younger son who attends a separate nursery 3 days a week (as he is only 2) and who is at my parents the other two days. Drop off and pick ups are complicated even without the London Bridge issues!

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
