If it's any consolation, we have had 4 holidays /mini bre...

Revive's Joe Purcell is a planning specialist. He used to work at the council. You can't find better. 

I second that - we used Joe and he was fantastic, used to work in Wandsworth Planning!

Re: New Soft Play Centre

Yes! Absolutely. We used to have at least Bertie and Boo but even that closed. Now we go to the Latchmere and Eddie Catz in Earlsfield - nowhere near!

Please in Clapham Junction!

Depending on your child's age, party size and budget, Kids Fusion at Latchmere are brilliant but pricey (it's around £400 for a basic party package not including food), it's great if you have a large party (up to 35 kids) and includes a bouncy castle and soft play. There is a smaller package for jus...

Re: How to find an au-pair?

Hi, I generally look for nannies and not au pairs like you, but I think most people use au pair world. Also, often there are posts on sw11 mums or sw18 mums on FB to say an au pair is looking for a new family.

Some enterprising au pairs are also on *********

Best of luck,

I have been told that Fledglings is closing in January and will re-open as a Forest School in April. But this is second-hand information. Does anyone have any more details?

Re: Beware London Great Construction / Greg Builder (Mazur)

I am so sorry to hear that. I have tried everything I could. We sued through Small Claims Court and won - but never recovered a penny. The company folded, and there was no point in suing him as an individual, as there were no assets to go after - his house is in his wife's name (I checked Land Regis...
