Re: Wandsworth Schools Consultation - Question

Mmh ok it feels like nobody wants to discuss this with me... This thread is in the most viewed ones but people prefer to pontificate on national policies they have no hope of influencing (yes, I am talking about mansion tax :D ) rather than help amend local rules. Shame, it felt that we had the coun...

Re: Wandsworth Schools Consultation - Question

Thank you honeybee for your kind reply, much appreciated. I have indeed taken this to the council, twice. I agree that people tend to move out rather than in and this is what my proposal (as well as the council's) is trying to discourage. I just believe that mine does it more effectively without hur...

Re: Wandsworth Schools Consultation - Question

I think the council's proposition is better than the current situation however 800m is an arbitrary number which may have an effect for some schools but not for others with tiny catchments. I wonder what people think about the following rule: 1. if you stayed in the same address your first child got...

Re: Pauls to Biscuiteers, Fat Face to Flight Centre?

Have to say this flight centre opening is a bit of a mystery... Though hope the shop will look nice, no big red garish signs in keeping with the rest of the road. By the way i think people should stop being so nasty to estate agents here, i am no big fan myself from personal experience but as much a...
