They're expensive and I've only tried a few things, but the grapes are lovely and not what you can get in most shops at the moment, I think. But it's a very guilty treat, for price and air miles. Which market are you talking about Angelina? Is it just for retailers?

I've been having lessons with Roksana since July when I decided to give the piano one more try. I learned as a child but never really got to grips with the basics and after a couple of slightly terrifying teachers lost my confidence. Roksana has helped me understand the foundations. Having to go back to the beginning as an adult could have been dispiriting but I look forward to my lessons feel that I'm (slowly) getting somewhere, instead of just winging it, as I used to do. She's an amazing teacher. I only wish I'd found her sooner.

Hello, Despite risking their lives during the pandemic, NHS staff from overseas are facing deportation and immigration insecurity. The second reading of a private members' bill to give doctors and healthcare staff from overseas indefinite leave to remain has been cancelled. Please support these workers by signing a petition calling for the government to give NHS and social care staff from overseas and their families indefinite leave to remain: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/563652 There's a letter from the nurse who started the petition in today's Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/feb/08/support-migrant-nhs-and-social-care-staff

Paul came over really quickly and gave me a quote and removed all the rubbish with the minimum of fuss and bother. He also kept the house clean even though he had to bring a lot of rotten dirty rubbish through from the shed.

I've just looked at their website and it has a make a donation button on it that goes through to a justgiving page. https://www.cschub.co.uk/

Thanks Finderloo - they're Turkish Cypriots. Their son drove over today with supplies, they're well stocked up for now. Thanks James - the link on that site for accessing support doesn't work - do you know if they're still running that service? I'll try emailing them

I'll check, their English isn't great, so it's a bit hard to explain different options, but I'll try - thanks Pugwash

Thanks Sweetgirl that's a good idea. I've actually put a call out to friends and they're looking for items as well for them. Hopefully we can get it covered. Take care

I've been trying to get food for my elderly neighbours who are self isolating. They're too afraid to go out to the supermarket for the special older people hour. Does anyone know if there's anyway of getting home delivery for them. The supermarkets I've tried are all booked up. I'm not able to get everything they need at the moment from the shops.

Thanks first mate - will check

There was a dog - with badly injured front leg on the bit of East Dulwich Grove between Half Moon Lane and the turn off to Dulwich Village. Last seen at 7.20. I was cycling on my way to work when I spotted him/her. I stopped and tried to approach but it kept running away. When I phoned a friend to help I lost sight of it. I spent about 15mins cycling up and down trying to find it but had no luck. I'll try to phone the RSPCA in my break this morning. The dog ginger/red colour, quite large and long legged. It's front leg is badly injured, and it can't walk on it. It is very thin and frightened. I'll look again on my way home. I think I must have frightened it more and it went to hide in someone's garden while I was calling someone to help.
