  1. Thrush is a fungal infection so it seems doubtful a vaccine can "cause" it. It may be a symptom of lowered immune defences.
  2. That's impressively mad even by the standards of anti vaxxers. All joking aside this stuff is dangerous and could result in some people getting ill or dying.
  3. I had my first AZ dose yesterday afternoon. By the evening I felt tired and a little nauseous. Over night I had aching legs and back, headache, woke at 2am really really cold and then at 4am I was feverish and sweating buckets. Now feeling a bit washed out and tired but otherwise fine.
  4. I understand that and it must feel terribly unfair. I was just cautioning against that approach. Your complaint is about the freeholders enforcement of your lease, focus on that. Getting involved in arguements about how they have treated another lessee seems a bit of a distracting cul de sac. I would concentrate on the lease which is your legal agreement with the freeholder and should govern the behaviour of both parties.
  5. Surely it boils down whether this garden included in your lease and you have exclusive access to it or if it is communal land owned by the freeholder that you have access to. If it is the former then I think permission should not be unreasonably witheld (does your lease state you need permission and did you seek it?) If it is the latter then you have encroached on land that is not yours. We have access to communal gardens in our block, our freeholder would take a very dim view of residents erecting sheds and other structures in the gardens. I would also not point to the poor behaviour of other lessees to justify your case. As a director of a freehold company I would take a dim view of that. The whole issue is whether you have acted within your lease and whether your freeholder is being reasinable. That is it.
  6. There seems to be an epidemic of poor driving at the moment. Near us there are a good number of garden walls that have been smashed in to - including ours late last year.
  7. Thanks for the update Brian. It's really saddening if this is true, the woods have been a really great resource for all of us this year. I remember when things got really hard in Spring just having a quiet green space to go and sit and gather breath was a life saver. If any costs - for lock replacement or clean up fall on the Trust I am sure many of us will be willing to help financially and practically.
  8. Your soil stack shouldn't back up in to your sink surely?
  9. That's what I thought! On first look the human waste referred to seems to be coming out of a broken outlet pipe not a soil stack, I am stuggling to think how that would even work!
  10. Cloth ones have different levels of effectivness depending on how they are made and what they are made of. Whereas the paper surgical ones are a known quantity as hospitals have used them for years.
  11. We walked from Forest Hill to Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury's yesterday evening. The smell of woodsmoke was very noticeable around Goose Green and the station.
  12. Do a lot of people drive to Melbourne Grove to visit the shops there? I would assume most people walk.
  13. At the moment 500 people can go in to our office(you have to book in advance and people who struggle to work from home are prioritised.). It usually holds 5000 people. I would be happy to go in but I am not in the priority group
  14. There is a pretty large Spoons less than four bus stops up the hill in Forest Hill though.
  15. Small outdoor socially distanced events are legal surely? If you can go to the pub why can't a few older people sit apart from each other and listen to music outside? Honestly this is the most mean spirited post since people threatened to report the ice cream shop for legally selling ice cream. We need to be careful but you get the feeling some people aren't happy unless everyone is miserably sitting at home eating their "essential food".
  16. May be try Helen Hayes, the local MP. I understand she was very helpful when Dulwich Hamlet had problems.
  17. Signed. I think this is a great initiative improving a very neglected and run down space.
  18. I love blackberry bushes but they grow like weeds everywhere in SE London. We have one at the corner of our garden that no matter what we seem to do keeps on returning.
  19. This was imposed on TfL by the government as a condition of the bailout. Also you don't HAVE to go in to the CC zone if you don't want to.
  20. Ahh nasty. Then yes surely the Council should arrange cleaning. And surely in the meantime residents need to stop using them.
  21. Maggots will arise from flys laying eggs in rotting matter, particularly meat. Has a reason for these infestations been discovered? Are the bins being emptied and cleaned properly? Are individual residents keeping their properties clean and rubbish free?
  22. Masks are already compulsary on public transport and have been since mid June. As you say there is a practical issue with masks in pubs and restaurants. In theory you could make people wear them except when they are sitting at their table.
  23. There is a huge difference. Like saying why pay chips from the chippie when you can buy oven chips and make the at home.
