Warning about recent theft from car.

When going out on Sunday, I realised that we had possibly inadvertently left the car open on Saturday. Upon retiring for the night, I normally check it is locked but having had a birthday sleepover for 9 girls, I was a tad out of routine! Car ransacked and sunglasses stolen from the glove compartmen...

Re: Perioral Dermatitis... help!

So sorry to hear about this - I’m sure it must be getting you down. My daughter has eczema and one thing that, to people’s amazement, truly works - I recommend it over and over; is coconut oil. It is anti-bacterial, antimicrobial, anti-fungal and of course natural. As a family, we use it on hair, sk...

Re: Anyone had a CVS?

I had this - in 2 places for each of my twins. I used hypnobirthing techniques to mentally ‘remove myself’ from the procedure. I also used hypnobirthing for their birth. I suggest you don’t even look when the procedure begins - close your eyes and don’t think about what is happening. If there was an...

Re: Awful gym moment

Have you brought this to the attention of the gym staff? I certainly would. Especially given his attitude when you approached him about his refusal to partner. I’m sure this can’t be an isolated incident. If partnering is an integral part of the training sessions then he needs to participate fully f...

Re: Health club for all the family

I've been a member of Chiswick riverside club for 10 years and the facilities are amazing. It might seem far but if you hit the traffic at the right times it a doddle. Also at weekends you can have a lovely roast in addition to their regular very good menu options. We make a day of it. There is an o...

Re: Lady and cats living in tent outside Balham library/Waitrose

Actuallyadad - how conceited can you get? No need to answer that - I think many folk would concur. Any of us could be homeless and this kind of comment is shameful. Wonderful as all the offer of help is, I think we do need to consider what this lady wants or needs. I took her some babywipes and deod...

Re: Inappropriate individual near our schools

You will be referring to 'The Clapham Tranny'

Not in any way related I'm sure. What a tenuous link and totally unjustified.

Re: Beware-moped muggings in SW area.

Having reported on several occasions, after thinking the car was locked, seeing it had been entered and torn apart inside overnight, i don't bother anymore. Even with the thieves on camera, we watch the footage open mouthed, it seems that nothing can be done. Personally, with the spate of muggings t...

Re: Emotional affairs - all bad?

All the above posts insightful and helpful but WALK AWAY NOW. Throw yourself into something that distracts you and prevents your thoughts from returning to this colleague. Find something fulfilling to do with just your husband - learn to play tennis, go to some foodie / cookery / wine things togethe...

Re: Best dry cleaner on Northcote Road?

A suit Julian?!? A sight to behold compared to your lycra! Not on northcote but if it's a favourite take it to Scobies. I've just had an awful experience with another local cleaners - totally ruined a 300.00 duvet and they were so nonchalant about it, I couldn't believe it. Not even an apology, just...

Re: What do you do with your children's school artwork, photos and school momentos

I swing from being sentimental about things they bring home to getting fed up with the utter c**p. Sorry but sometimes there is so much scribble and scrappy bits of paper. That goes between the pages of Sunday's newspapers and into the recycling. If something has a special message, that's generally ...

Re: soundproof windows

I totally sympathise. Those first planes wake me up- no alarm click needed. I'm close to nightingale lane and can hear the train too. The police helicopter is another thing that disturbs my sleep. I had all the sash windows replaced in my old house and installed acoustic glass.it made little differe...
