Hi, it was melbourne cars. But when I booked with them stating that I needed a car seat for my then 6 month old, they turned up with a forward facing car seat and tried to tell me the law had changed and they were allowed to use it!! I did try and explain to him just how dangerous it was to put a small 6 month old in a forward facing seat but not sure it made any diference. So I wouldn't recommend using them.

Yes, I had a similar experience with them. On the way to the airport we put up with a forward facing seat since he wasn't that much under the weight limit at the time and we didn't know what else to do. But on the way back I was horrified as we had to wait for half an hour for them (this was past baby's bedtime on a windy night at Heathrow - not fun) and when the car arrived it had just a booster seat. I also tried to explain it wasn't safe etc and got laughed at. In the end we felt we had no choice but to go with them. Sorry not v helpful!


With Addison Lee they only have the booster seats (for age 1 and up) as far as I know. I think there are various airport taxi firms recommended on here though, if you search for them - sure some of them must provide car seats? Last time we flew we ended up taking our car seat in an Addison Lee as we were going to France so figured we'd need it there. Was v easy to do.

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
