Re: Anyone know what's going on with Everyone Bikes?

Thanks everyone for your replies and I agree - what a shame. In the end we went to Balfe's bikes Streatham as they sell Frog bikes (https://balfesbikes.co.uk/our-stores/streatham/). Really good service (thank you!). Just a shame no longer a bike shop on our doorstep.

Anyone know what's going on with Everyone Bikes?

Does anyone know what is going on with Everyone Bikes on Northcote Road? The website says it was due to be closed until the end of September but it's now very much October and no sign of any life. We went by on Saturday and there was a sign on the door, and they're still not answering the phone or r...

Re: noisy builders.. please help!

Thank you everyone for your suggestions/comments/sympathies. I agree it's a tough one and I honestly don't expect anyone to go out of their way to fit in around our kids or to delay the project. However, there have been many days when there has been little or no noise all day and then the banging st...

Recommendations for a beauty salon/therapist needed!

I have just had a terrible experience at the Tranquility beauty salon on Bellevue Road. I normally get all my waxing done by the lovely Aleesha at Independent Mind Body Soul in Balham but she is away, and the other therapists booked up. I often find it very difficult to get an appointment there. I c...

Re: Very experienced nanny looking for 3/4 day position

Hi Mummies, This is just to vouch for Kerry who has posted an advert on NVN. Kerry is a fantastic nanny and a lovely person and we would highly recommend her. She has looked after our children from time to time and they (and we) loved her! Kerry is such a kind and warm person that our children insta...

Re: Marmalade caterpillar/ afternoon pre school

From what i remember we paid for the number of afternoons we attended. Mornings are different I think as they are so popular that kids need to go every day (or at least you have to pay for 5 days even if you don't use them). It would be worth talking to the administrator Miss Sue about it. She's bri...

Re: Conker Gardens Recommendation

Hi, I just wanted to second what pinkpeony said about Conker Gardens. Tina and Dan recently transformed our back garden from an unused mud patch to the most beautiful family-friendly space. We could not have imagined it could ever look so fantastic, and everybody who sees it comments on how gorgeous...

Re: Marmalade caterpillar/ afternoon pre school

Hi. Our son did his first year at MC as a 3 year old afternoon Caterpillar. We too were a bit apprehensive before he started, but we need not have been. The staff are absolutely amazing and our son was and is extremely happy there. If a child is struggling, the teachers certainly communicate that to...
