Posted August 22, 2015

I recently found some of these at home and occasionaly pick them up in charity shops. My 3+ year old LOVES them (and I have to admit to loving them too!).

So this is request for a little boy and a big kid.

If anyone has any they want to get part with, please let me know. It's the olders ones with the lovely illustrations I'd after. IT doesn't matter on condition, as long as they aren't falling apart, it doesn't matter if they have names of scribbles on the indie covers etc. They are to be read and loved by both me and my son.

Please Pm, especially if anyone has one called 'Tootle the Taxi' (I think that's what it's called). I saw a newer version in a charity shop, but I used to have the old one and can't find it anywhere and the newer one just isn't the same.

I'm especially interested in the tales series, with stories about Elves, the princess & the pea, a giant turnip and other factual ones like the motor car (which is now hopelessness out of date and all the lovelier for it!)etc.

Go on, Make my day.

Have a good weekend/week/life

  Aren't most marxists radical by default...and he was a self proclaimed marxist on his twitter feed for years but deleted it as I suspect it did not sit well at Labour HQ. The big worry for Labour might be that he takes votes away from them (but not enough for him to win a seat) especially as there may be a significant protest vote against them at the national level as they are making such a pig's ear of things. I suspect though Labour are glad to see the back of him - to say he was a thorn in their side is an understatement and his loss of the leadership of the council was clearly part of the purge Labour has been embarking on to rid itself of some of the far-left lunatic fringe that have blighted them for so long. The Greens of course are willingly take any disaffected far-left Labour rejects in the same way Reform are hovvering up the lunatic elements of the Tories. The fact he went in with both barrels on Labour is hardly surprisingly but wonderfully hypocritical of someone who thought they were about to lead a Labour council. My how politicians flip-flop to suit their own personal agenda. How long before he falls out with the Greens...where to then? Why do I think he had an affiliation with the Greens before he became a Labour councillor? Or did I imagine that?

  It’s a shame that that topic is closed/archived for further replies. It sounds like a great and helpful business. I’d love to see some of the pictures that had been posted.

  Many of you will recall my previous posts seeking recommendation of local eateries for a family meal. Having vegetarians, those who cannot take dairy products or are gluten intolerant we were looking at a menu which could accommodate everyone's requirements. Having been to Love Dulwich twice in t he past for lunch, we went again and discovered that we could reserve for 10 people (would have been 12 ). I am pleased to say Love Dulwich did not disappoint - a wide choice, beautifully cooked and presented, adults and kids loved the food. We booked for 7 pm and were surprised at the number of people already dining there, with several more coming through the evening. Service was good and coped well with multiple orders. Well recommended.
