Not sure that really fits with the ?One Dulwich? raison d?etre, which is to allow people to drive wherever they like while professing a love of clean air.

I have seen many osteopaths over the years, having a longstanding problem with my shoulder and recently had treatment with Will Westwood at Goose Green Clinic. I had been unable to use my shoulder properly for several months, but after a few sessions with Will and doing the exercises he recommended my shoulder is back to normal. I am very happy to recommend him.

Actually, the house is very much on fire. Attention spans are short and news cycles are shorter but we are in a climate crisis and the current drop in CO2 emissions is a drop in the ocean compared to what is needed to prevent an unsustainable increase in global temperatures. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-52370221 Pollution is one aspect but the emissions associated with car use are just as dangerous as the virus over time. We have an opportunity to improve transport for all now and we can?t go back to individual car use as the norm.

"If I am about to turn left and there is a bicycle behind me, I signal with my end to make sure the genius has seen me and doesn't try to undertake me the moment I slow down to turn left (a constant occurrence). " Really good of you to indicate when you're turning left. There's probably even something in the Highway Code about it. From a cyclist's point of view you wouldn't believe the number of car drivers who don't bother, or who indicate once they're half way round the corner.

Any pubs likely to be playing The Fall tonight? If not we're clearly doomed as a society.

Quite. There are very few people in London who actually "need" a car and if the alternative is cycling, you definitely don't need a car. Public transport? Anyway, anything that encourages cycling is a good thing.

One unique idea - don't do them. We tried it and after the initial surprise no-one was that bothered and you save a huge amount of waste and expense, not to mention breaking the cycle which puts pressure on other people to do the same.

The Gowlett did a good one on Mondays, but it now just does a monthly one on Sundays. The Montpelier does a good one on Tuesdays, but has stopped for the summer rather bizarrely. Anyone know of one on a Wednesday?
