  1. Sue, the street was empty, it wasn't my street, but an adjoining one which doesn't ever had many vehicles on it, as it's a school street, plus is a short/small street. There were only resident cars, and about 6 if I remember rightly. If there had been a delivery vehicle there, then my parcel would have been delivered! It wasn't. None of them were. Extra security, I have a camera, so I can see who comes to my door. There were no deliveries.
  2. I've never had issues with the official Amazon delivery drivers, but the casual ones, yes. Last month I didn't receive three different parcels. I was in, watching the tracking whilst working. Tracking changed to delivered, but no doorbell ring. Went to the door and there was nothing there. These were all weekend deliveries. Searched the immediate area, but nothing. I was too quick to get to the door for someone passing to have taken. Amazon were good, as usual, to refund/send replacements, but one seller was clearly suspicious, and I had a short battle with them. With all of those disappearing parcels, the tracking showed the driver at a standstill on a nearby street for as long as two hours. The last time, I actually walked to the road in question prior to the supposed delivery, but there were no vehicles which looked like they were delivering.
  3. ah, you didn't say that in your original message, otherwise I wouldn't have suggested. Hopefully it will be found safe and well.
  4. if you are able to, take it to the emergency medivet in Camberwell. 7 Kenbury St, London SE5 9BS 020 3816 1010 Call them to say you are coming.
  5. If you call the noise team when it is actually happening, stand outside, so they can hear it. They will have no problem in finding where it is coming from if they come out. You must keep a diary though. Other than witnessing it themselves, they need evidence.

  7. Update - I have taken them to the 24hr Medivet Hospital in Camberwell as they are either unwell, hurt or exhausted, perhaps all three. If they are yours, or you know who they belong to, please contact Medivet on 020 3816 1010
  8. I've seen this cat before in various parts of East Dulwich grove, but they're in my garden on Trossachs right now. they don't look great so wondered if anyone knows much about them.
  9. Saw about 3 or 4 on Trossachs either Friday or yesterday, can't remember.
  10. I don't disagree with Nigello, but the same problem will continue. Too many people will turn up, and those who get their first, will get in, others will be turned away. So you could go there every day you want to swim and unless you get there earlier than everyone else, you may not get to swim at all on all those days.
  11. I'm not disagreeing with your feelings as until I got to grips with the system, I was struggling to get a space, but surely those who aren't 'diehards' will lose out as well? It would be so frustrating/disappointing to schedule a time in the day for a swim, walk to the pool, only to find the pool was oversubscribed, so no swim. From what I gather, the lane swims are for 'diehards' who want to swim constantly in a lane, be it fast, med, slow. Where the other sessions, public swim, family swim, senior swim etc are for those who just want to swim generally. There is something for everyone.
  12. Removing it would then mean, some people who turn up to swim may have to go home as there is no room in the pool. The sessions aren't really long enough for people to wait until one person comes out.
  13. The Dulwich pool is back in working order now. I went yesterday evening. The booking app has been difficult, and I did have issues, but the manager sorted it out fairly quick for me. You will need another card, (new Southwark one) which might be the issue. Go in and speak to them if you can, sort it on site. From my assumptions, Everyone Active left the pools in a mess, disrepair. Southwark are picking up the pieces. Whilst I personally don't like booking either, there realistically isn't room in the pool, say during lane swims, if more than 10 people turn up per lane. It's just not big enough, and a turn up and swim would likely end in chaos and not a great experience.
  14. Weedkiller with glycophosphate can also damage car paintwork. Any spray residue on paintwork, after they have sprayed on kerb side, needs to be wiped off. I had to do this a year or so ago when I saw them spraying.
  15. The frontline Plus stops the eggs hatching in your home, not sure if that was the one you tried, as there is a basic frontline. I only found it the best for my cat. Others didn't work.
  16. no experience, but found this on council website.... apologies if you have already seen. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/home-owners-services/buying-selling-subletting-and-remortgaging/buying-unused-areas-or-space-in-your-building
  17. This isn't debate. Nor should trans people be debated. Why would I want to share any views I have on here? It's very clear, that any views which don't align with yours and Alexander2022, are not of value.
  18. Perhaps that's because we can't be bothered? Like the saying....don't feed the trolls. However, basic respect for another human being should ALWAYS be challenged.
  19. You have just talked about a trans woman you know - I am guessing SHE identifies as female. Therefore, you should be referring to her appropriately, not misgendering her. Why should she use male toilets or male changing rooms? She isn't male. Which toilets and changing rooms would you be expecting trans men to use? Think about it carefully.
  20. So you're basing your ideas about trans people on blue haired spicy straights and an old transsexual who was a gay man and regretted transition? Sad. You need to get out more and meet some trans people. Put some effort into doing so instead of moaning about a minority group you know nothing about behind your screen.
  21. Wondering how many of you commenting have actually met or even know a trans person or, at the very least, have had a conversation with a trans person to find out what it's like living in the UK right now as a trans person.
  22. It's been fixed for a while now.
  23. When I searched a month ago, there weren't.
  24. There's one Clapham Common way https://thecactusclub.co.uk/
  25. Pool temperature is now sorted as are showers after 2 weeks plus. The changing room however, continues to be very cold. Not as cold though, as section you have to walk through to get to it.
