I was also born in Hammersmith hospital (<waves to previous posters>) and my passport says London. Offspring born in Chelsea & Westminster and passports say Chelsea.

Re: Honeywell, Ravenstone or Henry Cavendish?

Of those 3 I’d go Honeywell in a heartbeat. You’ll need to be within about 300 metres. Aim to be between Honeywell and Belleville so you’ll get one if not the other. Both are widely considered among the best schools in the borough. That said I do hear good things about the head of Ravenstone.

Re: Moving house

It wouldn’t be a total showstopper for me. There are plenty of schools in Earlsfield, you’re not tied to going to the closest school by distance. When it comes to filling in the forms the January before your child is due to start, you can add 5 schools. Plenty of them will have places, even the “goo...

Re: Save the greens at Clapham South - your help is needed.

I’m not a fan of a pitch and putt but give me that over a youth centre any day of the week. I think the number of tennis courts should be increased personally.

Re: Ravenstone school

955m on offer day in April 2020. Chances are it changed a fair bit by September as children got offers at other schools higher up on their preferred list.
This is a useful link.

Re: Money help

I hope this doesn’t sound harsh but you need to either get married or get a job. You have absolutely no rights whatsoever if your husband were to leave you. His money is only your money if you’re married. Did you discuss you taking voluntary redundancy together before you made the decision? I’m not ...

Re: Can anyone recommend a removals company?

You can’t go wrong with Burke and Wills. I’ve never heard anyone complain about them.

Re: Husband has visited escort- advice please

@admin can you not put a zombie thread alert on threads over a year old?
This forum used to be widely used in the area and now it’s like no one runs it any more. Such a shame, I used to find it invaluable.

Re: Husband wants us to separate /divorce

Is you husband for real? Move out with nothing and give up your children? I have no experience of divorce but absolutely categorically don’t move out. It doesn’t matter if everything is in his name if you are married, you should be entitled to a fairly sizeable percentage I should think. Get yoursel...

Re: Kensington Wing Natasha Singh

Natasha Singh delivered my baby via C Section also, albeit Mina Savidou was
my consultant throughout the pregnancy. Can’t fault either of them for their exemplary care.

On a pure vanity note, my scar is totally invisible 6 years on. For this alone, I’d recommend Natasha Singh!!

Re: House sale - estate agent recommendations

Depends where you are and what you’re selling. If you’re selling a house between the commons, I highly rate Rampton Baseley and Thorogood’s. I find the Lavender Hill and St. John’s Road agents over price to win the business and end up having to reduce asking prices eg Dexters/winkworth etc. RB, Thor...

Re: First pregnancy, completely overwhelmed

Read the NICE guidelines. You absolutely can have an elective c section on the NHS. Explain you have tokophobia (fear of childbirth), say the same to the peri-natal team. It’ll take a while, they’ll try to talk you round, stand your ground. All elective c sections are different obviously, but mine w...
