Re: URGENT ACTION REQUIRED : The ridiculous Labour 'Private School VAT' scam ...

There’s over 1,500 spare secondary spaces in Wandsworth and nearly 1,000 in Lambeth so you should be fine to find a space.

Your bratty attitude to having to pay tax on luxury education isn’t going to win any friends or sympathy I’m afraid.

Re: Thinking of moving out of London but not sure where to go?

We’ve moved to Farnham and love it. Our kids are primary and secondary and the schools are great and lots of community stuff going on. I think in pre-teen and early teen being out of London works best as they have more independence. I don’t worry about them hanging out in town on their own etc. I do...

Our fab nanny is available

We’ve moved outside London so our nanny is looking for a new role. Just wanting to recommend her as she’s been with us for 3 years and is excellent. She’s been so kind to the kids, who both love her, and really helpful, often going out of her way to be supportive. She’s full of energy and always arr...

Re: Husband thinks timing good to sell family home and rent. Is he right?

I agree with the above poster, the top of the market has been and gone. Even if there’s a repeat of the financial crash and London prices drop 15% a lot of that would be swallowed by moving costs. If you buy and sell a £1.2m house it will cost you around £80k in stamp duty, move costs and 2 years re...

Re: Sash window replacement recommendations please?

We used Complete Sash Windows.

They did a great job. Good quality, well fitted windows and they were great at minimising disruption when we had a baby.

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

Just returning to this, looks as though enough people used the chance to send a message. Hopefully on threads like these and in conversations with voters the new councillors have heard enough of the fears & hopes people have for labour and can ensure they run the council well, for all the people...

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

You keep telling yourselves local isn’t national. On the 6th May Boris either wakes up with a sigh of relief and the knowledge he’s pulled off another great escape. Vindicated. Or he faces a beating in the local elections that tips Tory MPs over the edge to a vote of no confidence & there’s a ch...

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

That’s got nothing to do with political party. Hate to shock you but loads of men watch ******. And they watch it at work so their wives don’t find out. If you really think Labour MP’s are pure as the driven .. well you are in for an awakening ;) at some point. I know people watch ******. Sure some...

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

It’s good to hear the facts about labour’s inability to hoist taxes.

No more thann3% increase allowed seems a fair risk for sending a message to Boris.

But I guess we get the leaders we deserve don’t we.

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

Most certainly not a born and bred labour supporter. My dad canvassed for the Tories!

Ignore if you don’t want to talk politics. You don’t have to reply you know.

Re: How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

I appreciate people who are sticking to ‘local issues’. I get it. I just don’t agree this time. A) I’m so disgusted & I can’t wait 3 years to show that at the ballot box. B) it’s got so bad I think anyone not speaking out is culpable. The parliamentary Tory party not voting the criminal liars ou...

How Can anyone vote Tory next week?

I honestly thought politics couldn’t sink lower. I thought Johnson ignoring his own laws to party in lockdown because he’s special it couldn’t get worse. I thought my disgust at the venal, lying lawbreakers that call themselves our government was at a peak. Then today it turns out one of them watche...

Re: Simply loft - warranty issue

We had lots of problems with simply. Sorry but I doubt you’ll get anything out of them.

Hopefully you’re able to withdraw consent to be a reference and used in their promotional materials.
