We want to know what a day at the beach with the classics costs us.
First up: What do you pay for fish and chips? And what's the most expensive takeaway fish and chips you have come across?

This is my nephew in law and his wife Samantha is my niece through my sister's family. Dave is a photographer for people and teenagers who love skateboards. They were supposed to be with us before Xmas. for us (my partner and I) know they will be on the long road to recovering between 14-24 months. My partner is a survivor from his motorcycle accident and he knows what to feel like. I was a deaf health carer nurse and worked with many young teenagers and people in the hospital for 6-8 months many years ago. The photo below was taken 7 days ago and it is on the website GoFundme.com if you can donate or share with your family and friends.

Good evening,

My name is Nicola and as the new year is coming to an end and people are getting busy or going away, a little extra help is sometimes needed!

If anyone is needing some extra help or even a bit of time to themselves, i am happy to help! I have many years of experience with children which im happy to provide references for - a clean full drivers drivers license and a first aid certificate. If you would require a background check i would be more then happy to do so!

I am happy to work around price frames that suit you as i understand this time of year can be a bit rough, however a little goes a long way.

Feel free to message me via Neighbourly or contact me by email at nicola-jane.larsen@outlook.com

Merry Christmas!
