Re: Stupid question on washing machine

I had the same problem a couple of years ago and got these guys to replace the rubber ring around the door. From memory it all cost about £80 http://www.streetsaheadrepairs.co.uk/contact-us

Re: Exercise on the common - any 10am classes?

Artur Nowicki who runs Reach4fitness runs a really good circuit class on Sundays in Tooting Bec Common at 10.30am.

He also teaches at Balham & Tooting Leisure Centres and his circuit classes are brilliant (hard work but worth it)

Re: bureau de change

hi,
I find that the post office is usually pretty good. alternatively, outlets like Travelex do give a good rate if you pre-book - not sure if you can do that with cash though

Re: Have you been burgled & insurance co won't pay?

As previous posters have recommended, Hiscox are very good. Yes you pay higher premiums, but when we got burgled they were sympathetic and professional and paid what was due without any unreasonable requests. Very impressive.

Re: cold sores in young children?

You can catch the cold sore virus at any age - and yes it is contagious. However, if it's right in the corner of the mouth it may not be a cold sore - go and see your GP who can confirm and can prescribe a cream to get rid of it (for kids I don't think you get much over the counter for that type of ...
