  1. No collection here today,5/4/22, Worlingham Rd
  2. I was having a heart attack. Is this urgent enough?
  3. I had to go to Kings A and E recently, and, given that it's so near and the ambulance service is so stretched, we went by car. After 9 hours in A and E I couldn't help wondering if I'd have been better off calling an ambulance as I watched paramedics wheel people in. Does anyone know which is the best approach?
  4. When we rang the original insurer to say we were cancelling, they said "Oh, that does seem a bit high. we could have lowered it if you'd asked"!! There were several answers to this, I felt, but couldn't be bothered.
  5. It was a few years ago, but I think about ?250.00
  6. We changed to Aviva. They wanted a survey, but since they then charged only about a third of what our original insurers wanted (and they included free contents insurance) we felt it was worth it
  7. I can see it's being "renovated" I was just curious as to why, after turning a very nice house into a heap of rubble, it's just being left like that
  8. The one near the corner of Archdale that's had builders in for months seems to be turning into a tip. materials and now rubbish piled in the road taking up parking spaces and no work being done, it seems. Anyone know what's going on?
  9. I noticed a pigeon wearing a ring on its leg amongst those foraging in Sainsbury's park. Does that mean it was a racing pigeon?
  10. I'd like to know if people think it's worth changing to the Tessa Jowell centre?
  11. Having spent 45 minutes waiting for the phone to be answered (when I could have walked there to make an appointment in 5) yesterday at the DMC, I'm not surprised
  12. I told a passing postman that we'd had Christmas cards this week. "Already?" he said "No, not "already," I replied.
  13. Unfortunately, Alec1, your theory doesn't hold water. All my life nearly all post has arrived on time, in spite of the distances involved. So why is it such rubbish now?
  14. Throw in dreadful GP and dental services and you've got the full set, Brideshead
  15. Thanks, Loki286. Fascinating and dispiriting If you could send your post on to people such as Helen Hayes or anyone you think might listen - the Times and the BBC for London seem to be investigating at the moment, without endangering your job, it might be of some help to you and your colleagues (and us consumers) There again....
  16. Article about TM in today's Times, with SE22 singled out for mention. All due to Covid, of course. Not closure of the sorting office, non-employment of Christmas casuals etc. Now waiting for birthday cards. (along with Christmas cards, of course)
  17. Most of my cards weren't franked either.
  18. Article on this lunchtime news. Actually mentioned ED and Peckham. No mention by RM of closure of Sylvester Rd, of oourse.
  19. Frank Lampard has just got away an (alleged)traffic offence, thanks to clever lawyers.
  20. If everyone who'd posted a card which had been delivered after Christmas asked for compensation, it would be a big blow to RM.'s budget
  21. Can't beat the November date, but did get three cards today
  22. They are installing a new camera at Grove Vale crossing this morning. Don't know for sure, but possibly ULEZ
  23. What E2 was told doesn't sound like the official information BicBasher was given
  24. So that's all right then! I'm sure the lost hospital appointments, legal papers, bank documents and so on were just an inconvenience.
  25. 5 cards this morning
