I’d like to recommend Vinton McNab, who just completed a painting job for us. He was thoughtful, efficient, and his work was of a high quality. His number is +44 7708 501936

Well @march46 increasingly it does because one filter makes low traffic for one street by forcing it onto another. I refer you to the forthcoming Ryedale closure for a living, breathing example if you want to see exactly that in effect.

One filter does not make a low traffic neighbourhood @Rockets.

My experience of the Forest Hill Post Office isn't good. Typical is today, where I arrive at 3:30 with parcels already labelled ready to be scanned and dropped off. There's just one of three windows open, a 30 minute queue, and a hand-written notice up that the service will close at 4 PM instead of the advertised 5:30 The woman working there came out and put a physical barrier at the end of the queue, then asked the last person to tell any further arrivals not to join the queue as she won't be able to serve them. When she made her way back through the locked door, I managed to get her to take my parcels with her behind the counter, but didn't get them scanned, so hoping for the best.

bagels aren't that good for you - high carbs, processed. stodgy, but I suppose you can add healthy fillings. a bit like pretzels.

yes.. ditto.. also, and thanks doc

Hi, I’m a Creative Robotics student at UAL’s Creative Computing Institute, with 2 years of experience teaching afterschool coding and robotics clubs (ages 6–15). I’m no longer able to continue at my previous schools due to location, so I’m looking to take on a few students for private tuition. I’ve been building robotics projects since primary school, and through teaching I learnt it is one of my passions to inspire young people to explore technology through hands-on making and creative thinking. Location/ Travel I’m based between Peckham and Limehouse I could travel up to 60 minutes possibly more for group lessons Online coding only lessons are possible Pricing I’m aiming at £30-45 per hour (depending on location, and whether it’s a 1:1 or a group) An optional £25 one-off cost if you’d like your child to keep their own BBC micro:bit V2 I would be happy to offer a discounted first lesson and a short intro call explaining how the lessons will work and what we will aim towards Lesson format Ideally 1:1, but small groups up to 5 or 6 if they’re all in the same area 60-75 minutes works best, but could go down to 45 minutes minimum What you need I can bring all equipment, but I strongly advise the child having access to a laptop/ desktop for lessons and tinkering between. I am looking at getting a spare laptop to loan but this isn’t yet confirmed Safety I have an enhanced DBS I can provide references from both parents and teachers upon request Lesson Ideas Robotics (ages 6-12): focused around a BBC micro:bit V2, we’ll progress from simple builds such as step counters and reaction games, and build towards a programmable mini car, that your child can keep building and tinkering with independently afterwards. More advanced robotics (dependent on skill and age): using boards such as the ESP32, more complex sensors and learning real prototyping skills and techniques used in industry and throughout creative professions Coding: Scratch, MakeCode, Python, JavaScript, C++ and more. Projects are more independently tailored to your child’s age and level and can move as quickly as appropriate If interested please send me a message with their age, skill, location and preferred days. Or reply to this just saying that you might be interested, so that I can see how much interest there is.

Week 20 points... Week 20 table...

Brace yourselves the surrounding streets.....the Ryedale displacement is heading your way soon..... Honestly, this is the biggest admission that LTNs don't work - "we need an LTN to deal with the fallout from the other LTNs"!

Surely for cultural reasons the best bagels are in the East End. Although this random ranking, whilst having three in the East, does have one local to here! TBH I don't think I have ever had a proper bagel. I know the ones from the supermarkets come nowhere near. Helps if I attach the review https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-bagels-in-london

Hi, we are looking for wrap around care for our two children based in Dulwich Village. I need help particularly Tuesday and Wednesdays after school until 8/8.30 pm. We are pretty flexible as live next door to schools so could manage with some breakfast club and after school club if role is for a student not wanting too many hours. Equally we could do 2- 3 mornings and 4 after school days for someone wanting more hours. please private message me if interested. We need some to start after Feb half term. thanks claire

@Rockets it's good that you appreciate the benefits of active travel. I forgot to add that this could help address the obesity epidemic and the rise in Type 2 diabetes. Whilst clearly a separate thread you raised, and I discussed, segregated bicycle lanes. Per km you are 48 times more likely to be harmed cycling than driving. Motorcycling even higher https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5aa168ace5274a53c3f3eae8/pedal-cycle-factsheet-2017.pdf As said come and join us on the light side, you'd be an asset.
