Re: horses for...

Another vote for Ridgway stables in Wimbledon. I learnt to ride there and it's more fun than learning in a riding school IMO as you are learning to ride on the common so not just trotting round in circles.

Re: What is your 'dining room' use for in your terrace house

When I was buying my house most of the rooms seemed to use it as a TV room/snug. I started off using my 'dining room' as a study, and now I have a grand piano in it so it is a music room! The people who had the house before me used it as a children's play room. I think it is well worth keeping it if...

Re: To get a dog, or not...

Re: Bathtime Attempted Break in warning!

A good security device I've got on the back of my door is metal strips all the way down each side. They are painted white (the same colour as the door) so are not unsightly, but they prevent someone pushing the door in, no matter how hard they try. My friend had someone try to bash her door down, an...

I want someone who will actually burn the old paint off/replace any wooden parts that need replacing rather than j...

Re: Conveyancer

I've used Bowles & Co in Epsom for my last 2 moves - would highly recommend - I had David Read who is one of the partners.

Puppy sitters for very new puppies?

I've got a new puppy coming in 2 weeks. I usually work from home but I've got a couple of days where I have to do into work. Does anyone know a good puppy sitter who would look after the puppy at my home aged 8 weeks upwards? Most of the dog day care places will only take puppies 12 weeks up so that...
