Still looking for a hairdresser in Surbiton. Rush??

12 years ago...

Rush have just opened in Surbiton. I looked at their price list, their top stylist ( apparently they are called Directors now) charges £72 for a cut and blowdry !!!! Goodness it is Surbiton not Chelsea. However on saying that they have 50% off at the moment. Has anyone been there yet, what are they like? Otherwise any recommendations please?

Anyone know a good dog Walker / sitter?

12 years ago...

I will will soon be inheriting a new man of the house, a 9yr old male Miniature Schnauzer and I'm trying to find a good / reliable dog walker / sitter fro the Surbiton area who will be able to walk him every (or almost every) weekday.

He can be a handful and mischevious (noisy) to walk, but delightful nonetheless :-). If you know or can recommend anyone I'm all ears!!

Thanks

From today Waitrose Surbiton are changing the 'free newspaper' rules. You will have to spend £10 instead of £5. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.... apparently tea and coffee rule stays the same.

Air Training Corps 1034 Squadron - junior cadets?

12 years ago...

Can anyone remember the name and any other information re the junior cadet force that shared the ATC premises at 1034 Squadron?
I don't know much about it except that they wore a quasi-military uniform and think they were probably of a similar age range to the cubs.
Despite sharing the ATC premises I don't think it was necessarily an intro group for youngsters keen to join the ATC. Please correct me if this is wrong.

When I say shared I believe they had a separate hut on the ATC grounds.

My sister and I both attended this school between 1953 and 1958 and I wonder if there are any members of this site who were there during this time.

Plumber?

Can anybody recommend a decent plumber, please?
I'm having trouble with our heating/hot water system and am keen to avoid picking a plumber's name at random off yell.com!
Thanks

Barbie-cide

12 years ago...

I really can't believe there have been no comments on the new nail bar on Victoria Road.

Turners might have been a rubbish jewellers, but they always maintained their beautiful shop frontage. But painting it Barbie pink. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham. Whoever was responsible should be strung up from one of the new lampposts.
