  1. I know I shouldn't bite, but .... Would you like to give some specific examples of exactly why you consider this orange faced narcissist with the apparent mental capacity of a gnat (that's probably being unfair to gnats) and a clearly rapidly declining memory the "best US president of the last 50 years"?
  2. I have a very large (at least four seater), very old (bought when I moved in circa 1990 🙄) sofa which I am very fond of. It was extraordinarily expensive (from Heals) at the time. It has loose covers and large feather filled cushions (on the seating part). It is completely sagging at one end (the end I usually sit) and I think the springs have "gone". Some time back I had a quote to repair it, and I can't remember what it was, but it was a lot, so I decided to put up with the sagging as it's not too bad if the cushion is plumped up. Every so often I look at other sofas, eg corner sofas, but I can't quite bring myself to say goodbye to this one. To get to the point. There are various DIY solutions online for sagging sofas eg putting a sheet of hardboard or something specifically made for this purpose beneath the cushions. However there seems to be mixed views on how successful this is in terms of comfort. Has anybody tried this, or other remedies? Did it/they work? I know I could just try it and see, but it seemed to be a good idea to ask first!
  3. I had no idea there was an EDF summary email. Can't people just look on the EDF itself to find out? There's an events section!
  4. It depends how the problem was investigated, which might not mean testing the scales. As I've already said above, people can check things for themselves when they buy things.
  5. I don't know if it's still possible to get referred to King's dental hospital for orthodontic work? You could enquire? I have had very good experiences there in the restorative dentistry department. I don't know if that's the same thing though.
  6. My ex (who worked from home) used to ask the JWs in and ask them questions they couldn't answer. They didn't stay long 🤣 I'm not sure that the Trump's America version of Christian fundamentalism (and now the apparent Reform version over here) bears much if any relationship to anything that Jesus ever said, for the most part. As far as we can tell from the New Testament, anyway. But what would I know, all I know is from school. Apart from my Christian Scientist grandparents, but to the best of my knowledge they didn't rant loudly in the streets, just sang loudly at their meetings. And to give them their due, never ever tried to force it on my siblings and me.
  7. Are they connected to a local church? What do they rant about? At least you can cross the road and get away. What I really object to is the people who do it at bus stops, and worse still on buses. In the latter case, I did once ask them to STFU. It was so long ago, I can't remember if they did.
  8. That's awful. Did you complain to this man?
  9. To the best of my knowledge there are three shops on Lordship Lane selling fruit and veg (or at least displaying them outside) and sadly I now no longer go to two of them because of, to put it kindly, the "mistakes". Those I've actually noticed. (the other one I just admire the wonderful display but assume I can't afford to buy anything).
  10. I didn't know they were on Deliveroo! Wondering if central East Dulwich is within 2.5 miles (crosses her fingers)? According to Google maps it's a 40 minute walk from mine, so I guess it depends how fast you walk. Will consult ChatGPT for hopefully an accurate assessment of the actual distance (or look on Deliveroo. Duh. 🤣) ETA: Chat GPT says about 2 miles. But I had first uploaded a screenshot of their website with their address and postcode on, and before I could ask my question it had come back with a rewrite of their website blurb, which it didn't have a high opinion of 🤣
  11. My garden has been completely empty of birds since I took down my bird feeders (I have to sort out the garden before I put them up again in a different spot.Cats were sitting in wait).
  12. You need to book I think? We couldn't get a table when we tried!
  13. A Google will tell you. These are just a few examples which came up first.
