Hello, if you just need a planting scheme, I can do it for you and you get a gardener to plant everything where I'll tell him. I have redone my garden entirely from scratch (removing most of the overgrown stuff, then re-planting to get year-round interest with a mix of evergreen and perrenials/annua...

Re: Black tie dress

I would also say TK Maxx. For something you'll only wear once you won't pay a fortune, yet you'll find a long dress. Paired well with sparkly jewellery and pro makeup (done at MAC for instance) you will look stunning.

Re: Estate agent fees - selling

I have sold 2 flats and recently bought a house BTC after looking for almost a year. My take away is: - You need an agent you get along with.

Re: Northcote House nursery - can you recommend?

Hi There, we have our child there, having had her in another nursery before. It is not the top of the top. Somehow, they just can't seem to get to grips with all the admin that's required.
