Re: Solar panels for residential house

@chorister sadly I think it's a catch 22 - until they become more cost effective, people can't afford to put them in and with London being quite transient and many people moving (as in our case) it makes it a non starter as they take 20 years to pay themselves back.

Re: Small business networking in Tooting Bec, February meet-up

Are you planning any day time meeting ups? I'd love to go, but evenings are tricky as my husband gets home from work after 8pm usually. Thanks

Re: Advice on how to transfer out of independent school into state

Sorry to hear you are having a tough time. My best friend has been going through a very similar situation and having to consider similar options for her children, although not in London.

Re: Photographer for 40th Birthday Party?

What can you see yourself doing with the images afterwards and what kind of pics do you want from the event - do you want a photo montage, or a physical book to look?

Disney Land Paris trip

We are thinking of taking the kids to Disney Land Paris for a few days. The kids are finally tall enough to go on all the rides! Has anyone been and which of the hotels would you recommend or avoid?

I used to work in Oval and the nursery was on my way to work which, although wasn't why we initially chose it, was a big help and the other nursery we were ...
