The DPD one almost got me. And that was hours after I'd taken a phishing scam training webinar! 🤣

I'm glad others are asking this question! Only realized today I wasn't getting updates recently. I don't quite understand these things but the feed doesn't seem to be valid? https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eastdulwichforum.co.uk%2Fforum%2Frss.php

Hi, just wondering if the forum header message should be updated. It is currently: "We are trialing a dedicated East Dulwich COVID-19 Area on the forum here - please keep it useful." Currently gone beyond a trial?

There's a lot of helicopter action tonight and recently. Any idea what is going on? Edit: something going on by Westminster bridge it seems and a helicopter is circling.

Just spoke to our Postperson. They said there's a big push at the moment, that a delay of 2 weeks isn't unusual still but they expect things to be mostly back to near normal by Wednesday.

I'm pleased with 306, but then again, my previous experience was with the big place on crystal palace road.

It is very frustrating. I've had orders arrive within 2 days, but orders from a week before are still missing.

Hi - it is become very frustrating for us now not being able to see a GP for our 6-month old baby. We can only get telephone appointments and we need our baby to be seen in person. Does anyone have a recommendation for a local private GP who would see a baby in person?

Considering the queues there, sometimes it is quicker to walk up to the post office in Dulwich Village and back!

Hi, has anyone else in the streets around Melbourne Grove had someone randomly ringing their doorbell? It happened to us just now, annoyingly waking our baby just after we'd got them to sleep. I rushed out and asked a person walking slowly away if they'd pressed the doorbell. They said no, and then sorry for causing any bother, and then carried on walking away fairly slowly. Young white man, shaved head, quite large, seemed confused. Wondering it it was just us. Many thanks

Hi - does anyone know of a good spot in the area to see the Neowise comet? I'm thinking maybe from Dawson's Hill?

Hi, Just wondering if there are any socially distanced activities in parks etc starting up soon for parents and babies. Sing-a-longs etc? Many thanks!

😆

Is The Actress going to reopen at some point? Their Twitter and Facebook pages are empty and the Instagram hasn't been updated for a while.

Well said.

I think the fox got them.

Thank you!

Hi, does anyone have a recommendation for a good postnatal practitioner?

Only just seen this, but hopefully may be of use - try https://roll20.net/

Yep, Tuesday 8pm

I have to agree with Penguin68. I'd rather see people stick more literally to the rules (particularly those damn runners who put their 'Personal Best' over 'Personal Safety') but there has been little interest from the government in enforcing or even following their own'advice' thus relying on public co-operation. But we the public are not all that totally reliable when it comes to following advice. We have to accept that, assess the risks (quite low at the moment in London) and act in a way that keeps us feeling as safe as we can be. It's a bit like that driving advice...drive as if everyone else are idiots! Penguin68's words are a fair approach for the reality of how people are acting and how little there is of any enforcement.
