Re: Spa hotel recommendation please!

I just did the same thing with my husband and went a few weeks ago to The Alexander House Hotel in Sussex. Only an hour from London, gorgeous hotel and spa and more reasonably priced than all the others I looked at. Would definitely recommend.

Re: Advice on blinds for big bay window

I have just had some roman blinds made by Pret a Vivre on Wandsworth Bridge Road. Great selection of fabrics, excellent product and great measuring/fitting. I think they are very reasonably priced, but you do get what you pay for.

Re: Marmalade Bear or 3,4,5 nursery?

My daughter was at Marmalade Bear and it was fantastic. Really lovely environment, very nurturing, but also high standards. I think it was actually Miss Rozzy coming in (2+ years ago?) which has had a v positive impact. My only criticism is that it has no outside space.

Re: What couldn't you live without in your kitchen?

Bamse - what is an insinkerator? And is the hot water tap useful? Does this mean you don't use a kettle anymore? I was a little concerned the children would get their hands on it! (just jumping on this thread as we are doing the same - hope that's OK)
