My gorgeous daughter needs play mates at weekends. As much as I can entertain her I know that she needs to spend time with children of her own age during weekends and holiday periods as I did at her age. I would love her to expand her social group. I am more than Happy to look after her and any potential friends and likewise if suitable parents are good and safe for her to be looked after by them.

She is very bright and confident and participates in gymnastics, horse riding,swimming, learning skate board and general activities that one would expect.

If there are any good, educated nice potential matches out there I would love to hear from you.

Obviously we would need to meet to make sure of suitability.

Regards

Nic

Actually to be fair to Uncleglen I actually thought the same, I don't think there was any untoward suggestion. I think the first person to ask is your daughter - does she have a particular friend that she would like to arrange a day out with? I'm guessing you might live in a different area to your ex-partner which might be why you are looking for friends outside of your daughter's school - in which case how about contacting an organisation like Gingerbread which arranges events for single parents or having a look on Meetup - I think they have groups doing family-friendly activities.
Are there any local groups that she would like to go to so she can build a friendship group naturally? Arts & crafts sessions, drama etc. I think this and the above comments is what normally happens. Ive never heard of families matching their children with suitable friends, sorry

    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
    • I thought I noticed the shop being redecorated the other day when I passed. Also the old Romeo Jones had some works going on, I think 
    • Leon came to sort out a lighting issue for us last week.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and gave clear, detailed advice about how to avoid in future.  Would highly recommend him.
