Hi,

Lovely to meet some of you today! And your little ones for those who came. Some pleased the sun came out for us too!

Sorry that have missed those who couldn't make it. Hope to meet some more of you soon.

Have fun if you do meet on the 6th or 7th as Frieqs suggested. I'll try to make it but will depend on toddler bedtime!

Otherwise hope to make the meet up on the 9th in PR park.

Take care,

Jen

Hi all, lovely to meet you on Saturday. Maggie and I are going to this this morning: https://www.picturehouses.co.uk/cinema/East_Dulwich_Picturehouse/film/guess-how-much-i-love-you

I just thought I would let you know and see if any of you wanted to come along too. Alice x

Hi


I am due my 3rd (I know I am crazy) in early September. My boys are aged 5 and 3. I met such lovely people via this forum with my second son so I would love to join you. I will be following this forum to see when you are planning meet ups and will see if I can join for some.

Hi. I'm due on September 9th. First time mum to be! Would love to meet some of you too. Unfortunately, it's my husband's birthday on 9th so won't be able to make that one. By joining this thread is this the same as joining this group? I would like to join the group if it's not the same, so could someone possibly please tell me how to do this? Apologies never used this forum before. Someone at my pregnancy yoga told me about it. Thanks :) Jane

Hi ladies,

I'm not able to make it today unfortunately. Have a fun afternoon!

I'd love to make the evening meet up, toddler bedtime depending. Think there are plans for the 14th? Not sure if location has been decided? But if not, the EDT used to always be a good bet with my previous summer babies group as they reserved tables. Although I think we also did the Bishop once.

    • Returning to the original question, I had my jabs at Tessa Jowell yesterday. I was early and I was  seen on time, and it was a lovely pharmacist who did them, but the admin beforehand (not by her) was a bit iffy. I was given forms to fill in but not told what to do with them afterwards, so I  presumed I had to take them into the consulting room, as the rest was supposed to be filled in by a clinician, but no! After some time had elapsed and I had found a seat (there was no information on where to sit either, so people were sitting in two separate areas, neither of which had many seats) my name was called and  the forms were taken behind the counter. Be aware if you don't have an appointment - even in the relatively short time I was there, three people turned up without appointments having been sent there by a GP (I presume) or having  previously been  asked by the pharmacy to come  back at a different time, and they were all sent away again because the pharmacy didn't have enough flu vaccine until the following day. I have no idea if this was due to a misunderstanding on the people's side, their GP's or the pharmacy's, but none of them were very happy, and one lady said she "couldn't keep coming back" 😭  At least one of them didn't seem to understand what he was being told, possibly due to a language issue. I felt quite sorry for the pharmacist, who was giving jabs all day on top of her usual workload but still managing to stay cheerful! Though she wasn't the one dealing with the unhappy people! I have a sore arm from the Covid jab (I chose to have the jabs in different arms), but no other ill effects so far, touch wood. 
    • Line speed and the strength of your Wi-Fi signal are two separate things.  The first is determined by the type of connection (fibre/copper etc) to the outside world and the second is the connection between the device (printer/TV/laptop/tablet etc) and the router. If you are connecting a device to the router using cables (as Alec1 is) then this is will give the best possible connection but isn't practical for many without a degree of upheaval and even then not all devices (tablets for example) will allow a wired connection. So you relying on the quality of the Wi-Fi signal from the router to the device and this will depend on the quality of the router, the type of Wi-Fi connection (the frequency), line of sight etc - many different things.  This is why some people opt for a "mesh" type setup which is supposed to give a solid quality of Wi-Fi signal around the house with little or no blackspots.  It's expensive though and still requires the devices that send and receive the signal (like the plug-ins you have) to be wired to the router.
    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.        
    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.
