Re: How much will my husband need to earn when we return from overseas.

Hi Homeward Bound. I don't blame you for wanting to move back to this wonderful area of London. To fully understand your options I would recommend that you speak to an experienced Mortgage Broker who understands this scenario and can work with you throughout the process. If it helps I have over 30 y...

Re: VAT a big fee mistake!

It's a dreadful idea. The unintended consequences will be disastrous for many families, not forgetting the possible closure of many private schools....and where do those kids then go to school if the local state schools are already full?  I feel sorry for the kids here, as well as the hard working m...

Re: Rough sleepers hub and hostel opposite Battersea Arts Centre, Lavender Hill

This is a 'homeless' hostel proposition not a prison for criminals. Thing is the area has an increasing problem with more and more people sleeping rough in shop fronts on St Johns Rd, Northcote Road (the old All Bar One frontage for example), and of course St Johns Hill outside the station. You and ...

Re: Will you let your son play rugby?

Its really easy to become extremely cautious with this sort of thing when its your own children. I totally get it. However what I would say is that the rugby clubs including Ironsides are extremely rigorous on safety these days due to the obvious nature of the sport.  Your son will start with non-co...

Re: Out of control schoolchildren on St Johns Road

I'm afraid I also have to disagree with Homemaker if she is alluding to Bolingbroke Academy. The school has been a wonderful success since it opened. I have first hand experience. The issues happening along St Johns Rd near McDonalds is coming from a mixed groups of young kids - many of which are no...

Re: Out of control schoolchildren on St Johns Road

This problem has sadly been going on for some time. I hope the individual from Ploussard is doing OK. The immediate area around McDonalds is definitely the congregating area for these feral kids. I have witnessed the same individuals using intimidation as a means to have fun on more than one occasio...

Re: Ex owes money

Hi Lbgjan. If it's deemed a gift by the courts then no interest would be owed - the money was given. The difficulty your sister has is to somehow demonstrate that money was not 'given', but instead provided in good faith to help her and her ex-partner to buy the property in the first place.  When th...

Re: Ex owes money

Sorry to read about these troubles your sister is having with her ex.  This sort of issue is not uncommon.  Just to clarify something for me, when the property sold did your mother receive her original 65K investment back from the sale, and that your sister and ex agreed to give her an additional 10...

Re: Wandsworth council first local council in country to issue speeding fines for drivers breaching 20mph limits

@chorister I already said I’m happy to drive 20mph in residential areas especially when I’m worried about children coming out between cars. It’s the main wide road I have an issue with. There is a section off the A3 heading toward Wimbledon that’s a wide main road with a whole planted separation be...

Re: Thinking about buying a home but not sure what happens to market in times like this?

There is never the right time or the wrong time to buy a home as far as the market is concerned. You are not professional property investors looking to buy low and sell high in a short space of time. You are buying a long term investment and more importantly a home for yourselves. When you eventuall...

Re: Taxi deliberately drives at cyclist

Shocking! I hope this taxi driver is caught and charged accordingly. He should serve time for this and never again should be allowed to drive on our streets.

Re: The Breakfast Club

It's good breakfast in a home from home feel, but to queue like this is completely irrational. We have often driven past scratching our heads mouthing the suggestion of trying Cote on the corner instead - equally as good and no queue! But maybe not quite so hip....but you don't eat 'hip' do you? Tim...
