I’ll look them up. I do love travelling to spend the day in the park all day, Hyde park is one of my favourites especially the water fountain in the summer months

I saw this on my Instagram feed last week. Is it nice?

I looked up Cookie Island, it looks good. I usually go to Clowntown but I’ve been wanting to find a different soft play space. Thanks girl.

Old MacDonald farm - there’s lots to do! Inflation nation in Colindale, the museum of docklands have a nice interactive area called Mudlarks which has soft play too

I've been to the one in Epsom twice - once with nursery aged kids and once with reception aged, and it was great! Loads to do and kids always had a great time. Some of the adventure play areas are quite high up and require really good climbing skills but there are other options, including an indoor play area if the weather turns.

I second hobble down farm! It’s so good. Went around Easter with my 6 year old. So many activities alongside seeing the animals. They also had horse riding too.

Maternity allowance

Hi guys! So I am currently on maternity leave with my boy and pregnant again, my maternity leave is almost over (I took the full 52 weeks off) so I am due back work soon! I have just had an email saying I’m not eligible for statuary maternity pay again and they are sending me a form to apply for maternity allowance! I would only be back at work for approx 6-8 weeks before going on maternity again! So I thought I would use my holidays instead of actually going back but the manager has actually refused them. What I’m wondering is, if I was to hand in my notice, would I still technically be eligible for maternity allowance and get the full amount or would it be the £27 a week? Because if I did do that, then they would obviously still have to pay me my holidays that I’m entitled to?

Change of religion when married.. advice please!

Hi all, my husband has very recently and out of the blue turned to Christianity (we were atheist). I’ve been super supportive, we’re speaking a lot about it, I’m reading the bible to understand. To be clear I don’t have an issue with it at all (I went to a Christian school, just wouldn’t say I’ve found Jesus myself 🤷🏼‍♀️).
I just wondered if anyone has been in a similar situation? What if I can’t come to the same conclusion and we end up not being of the same religion?


Really hoping someone’s gone through similar and may give me an idea of how it turned out please 🙏

Extending maternity leave beyond a year

I’m due to go back to work in June and my baby to nursery after a year off (I work in the nursery she’ll be attending).I can’t claim funding for her until September so considering now staying off with her until then.

Does anyone know how this works? Am I entitled to just tell them I’m doing this or is it something that can be refused now my maternity leave and 52 weeks leave entitlement is up?

What’s a cheap little gift you could buy for anyone. The only thing I could think of is a scratch off lottery. What else is there?

I’ll take any ideas?
