Re: Men and women sharing chores

It sounds like this discussion has helped you which is great :-) As for that book, it's not really about language, but it explains we all have our own "language of love", so for example one person might express love by buying gifts, another person might express it by doing small acts of ki...

Re: Men and women sharing chores

This is a very tough one. When my husband and I both worked full-time we shared the chores 50-50, even though he earned far more than me. When I went on maternity leave with our second I happily accepted to do all the household chores - cooking, cleaning, shopping, washing-up, administrative tasks e...

Re: fantastic new fishmongers in Balham - let's support it

Totally agree about Volker and Quinn - we've had mussels and clams from there now and both were incredible, we paid £7 for 500g of clams and I think the mussels were £5 for 1kg. Both incredibly good and incredibly fresh. Let's support these independents wherever we can, especially when they're good ...

When I was working full-time we went through APNI (http://www.apni.co.uk/). They provided a really thorough file on each au pair, with photos of them in their home environment, details of experiences and many many questions that I'd never have thought of. We emailed potential au pairs and then skype...

In fact in Reception and even Year 1 her teachers informed me that it was actually very commo...
