Re: Part time annual leave calculation-HELP

Perhaps it is easier to think of in terms of days off rather than separating holiday and bank holidays? So you each get 20 days off a year. Of those you have taken 7 as bank holidays, and she has taken 1. So you have 13 days remaining and she has 19. Next year you will have 15 days as Christmas Day ...

Re: Working post-baby

I took 9 mths off with my first and the full 12 mths off with my second, but went back to work both times. After my second mat leave I changed jobs, into a new company and with a promotion. It is definitely possible to progress your career while having children if you want to! I would say good child...

Re: Home office - broadband/Ethernet connection

If you want to try out a cheaper solution, we have a powerline kit, which takes the broadband signal through the electricity ring main. You literally just plug it in, really easy and not expensive.

Re: Breastfeeding help - first time mum in Wimbledon

The NCT breastfeeding drop-in at the Gooseberry Bush Cafe should be near you, and I found it brilliant, really helpful.

Re: Anyone else annoyed at the excessive 'settling in' period for reception in primary school penalising the least well

Guy, I can totally understand your motives, and I can see where you are coming from with the settling in period, but don't you think how a child is settled in should depend on the needs of the child and not financial considerations? What you are proposing will likely mean that people make the decisi...

Re: Anyone else annoyed at the excessive 'settling in' period for reception in primary school penalising the least well

I think the problem is that different things will suit different children, and the school has to cater for them all. I am pretty sure my confident autumn born child would be fine going straight into full days, but what about the nervous summer born? The school has been doing this settling in for yea...

Re: Boiling water tap

We have a Franke 3-in-1 tap, and I love it. The tank also goes in the space behind the plinth, so you don't lose any cupboard space.

Re: Finton/ Thomas's/ Hornsby

According to the most recent results on Finton's website (2016) 15 of 27 pupils were awarded a scholarship, and looking at the results some must have been offered more than one.

Re: Man stabbed in buttocks in unprovoked Wandsworth knife attack

I think the key word in your previous post is random. That's what these three attacks appear to be.

Of course I am worried about violent crime on our streets, but I have never felt anything less than safe in Earlsfield, and I have certainly never had cause to be worried for my children's safety.

Re: Man stabbed in buttocks in unprovoked Wandsworth knife attack

I think you are being misleading, and a 1% drop in house prices in 12 months is not an indication that people are realising it is not a safe place to raise children.

Re: Man stabbed in buttocks in unprovoked Wandsworth knife attack

Shows a rise over 3 months or 5 years. And a larger decrease in Battersea prices. Just proves what they say about stats I guess!

Do you have stats on the falling Earlsfield house prices Papinian? That is not our experience at all.

Re: What DO we want on Northcote Road???

We have regularly used Moens (Clapham Common) and Ginger Pig (Abbeville Road), and would recommend both. Moens in particular are brilliant at chatting through options with you, or engaging over what you are going to do with the meat you have bought.
