Barclays Bank closed (temporarily)
Dulwich Born And Bred replied to singalto's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I got this email from Greenpeace: Greenpeace activists have shut down more than 95 Barclays branches all over the country - and 5 of them are currently hosting pop-up exhibitions showing the effects of the climate emergency. They're there to demand that Barclays stop bankrolling climate breakdown and start funding a better future for the planet and its people. Banks are as guilty for the destruction of our climate as the fossil fuel companies they fund - we can't let them get away with it anymore. Can you help drive this urgent message to Jes Staley, Barclays' CEO? Barclays are the worst bank in Europe for funding the climate crisis - they finance fossil fuel companies with billions of pounds a year. We need to be loud and clear in telling them that this just isn't acceptable. -

The B12 in yeast triggered off my skin disorder so that didn?t work for me and the supplements just didn?t absorb properly with me so I stopped being vegan despite trying it for over a year. -

I had the same issue. I?ve got IBS and auto immune illnesses and as a plant-based diet is heavy in grains, nuts, seeds, legumes and carbs I ended up with a constant swollen stomach as well as another auto immune illness. I find I fare a lot better with fish and the occasional grass fed/free range meat with vegetables and fruits that isn?t too taxing on the gut. Your body is your best guide.

They just changed the light outside my house yesterday to the new bright ones. It?s outside my bedroom window too and it?s horrid. It?s so bright. It?s really strange looking outside at night and seeing it so lit up. What was wrong with the old style lights?!

I checked online and it said: WHAT DOES THE TICKET PRICE INCLUDE? The ticket price includes entry to the festival and access to chef demos and all the acts on the music stage. Dishes are priced at ?5 each and drinks vary from bar to bar.

I think you have to pay for food and booze on top of the entrance fee. paulu197 Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > personally can't wait - and the price is good too > as it includes beer and food. not complaining

Sad times.

So when/why is it closing?

I stand corrected, Rock Steady Rum Lounge https://www.rocksteadyrumlounge.com/

Rock Steady Lounge or something like that. Is it going? Why?

How utterly awful and scary. I hope that he is caught and punished for his primitive behaviour.

It?s not easy to swap though, so if you want to downsize/upsize within your own area, it?s virtually impossible to find something and that is assuming the other person is up for the swap because people have to consider schools/work/family/health. It?s not a simple case of someone has a three bed in Dulwich and can swap to a one bed in Dulwich because they rarely exist. They did documentary about home-swapping and it?s not easy or realistic for most so they have to pay the bedroom tax despite trying to swap. Another example is that a two bed house is considered a three bed house by Southwark Council as they state that the dining room is a bedroom, this is baring in mind that the living room isn?t big enough for a dining table nor is the kitchen so the tenant is paying bedroom tax for a dining room. fishbiscuits Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > TBH the bedroom tax seemed reasonable to me.

I got my tree from EDT for ?25. We are very happy with it. But it?s round the corner from me so it suited my needs. shell Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > At the risk of being very unpopular I'm afraid I > did buy my tree from tree amigos.

Mural in North Cross Road?

Apparently anyone could go in any shops on NXR and vote but I didn?t even know about it until I stumbled on it by chance online.

That is good as a few have told me stories of being left to lug things upstairs whilst they watched them struggling as most like to carry as many bags as possible to help speed up time, not good for their backs!

It?s not their job though to lug things upstairs to the kitchen, their job is to deliver it to your door. It?s back breaking stuff lugging everyone shopping to the van, off the van, to the house, and then usually offloading the bags to you and they have to do it at every house. I shop online because I don?t want to go to the shops, push a trolley around, pack, put it in a car, unpack and then sort it out indoors, so I?m quite happy to take over from my front door and they seems quite appreciative of the fact that I?m making things easier for them too.
