Re: Eaton House The Manor vs Parkgate House

I’m glad you have made a decision. I remember why I finally chose Parkgate and it was from some mums I spoke to from both schools. The EH mums felt that their kids had “got through” prep school where as the Parkgate mums felt their children had really enjoyed their time. For me, this was quite telli...

Re: Eaton House The Manor vs Parkgate House

The school choice issue can be quite emotive! We turned down Eaton House for Parkgate because we loved the personal feel and the clearly happy and enthusiastic children. We’ve been very happy with our choice. We chose happy, confident children over snazzy facilities. The children all get great resul...

Dog Poisoning

Hi, I saw something this week (I think a tweet from local police) about deliberate dog poisoning in Battersea Park. Has anyone got any more information on this? Was it just a one off? Where in the park was it? Was it just Battersea Park or other local parks affected too? Have they caught the person ...

Re: Cleaner wanted SW11

Thank you for the reply! I don't mind using an agency at all. Would you mind letting me know what the company was called and the name of your cleaner, so that I can ask specifically for her?

Cleaner wanted SW11

Hello, Could anyone recommend a really great, hard working, honest and reliable cleaner for either one or two mornings a week in Battersea starting in the new year? I'd really like someone with good references who can speak good English and sees things that need doing, rather than a lot of guidance!...

Re: Chicken Pox Vaccine

Hi, I found out when I was pregnant that despite having had chicken pox when I was a tiny baby I wasn't immune so I wanted to make sure I had the jab as getting it when you are an adult can be quite unpleasant apparently. I also didn't like the idea of nursing a child with chicken pox whilst being i...

I did end up having to have a c-section but I found out about 3 weeks before my due date, because the midwife flagged u...

Re: BRAC1 Testing

Hi there, I have the BRCA2 mutation and am under the genetics team at the Marsden, whom I have found pretty helpful. However, for screening etc I am now at the Rose Centre at St. George's and I agree, they do seem a bit stretched. When I spoke to the genetics nurse at the Marsden she said that once ...

Re: Maclaren Quest

Yes I do! I bought it last year but haven't used it a lot, so it's in good condition. I think I bought it for £165 or something from Peter Jones. I have the rain cover and a Maclaren cup holder too. £80?
