The Repair Cafe, Nunhead Green Community Centre. Mend it with Mo, Telegraph HillCentre.

Thames Water are responsible for shared drains from the junctions where they join up out to the road. This should include the manhole cover in your garden.

Krystals pharmacy in Nunhead take them.

You could try contacting South London Makerspace, based in Herne Hill. southlondonmakerspace.org -
The larger St.Christopher's charity shop on Lordship Lane is still taking them in.

I think there's a top bar in Burgess Park but I don't know how you'd get hold of the beekeepers at this time of year. You could contact London Beekeepers Association or Bromley BKA - both very friendly. I think doing inspections is a bit more difficult with TBs because the frames aren't supported at their base but you probably know that!

Hi Calsug, sent you a PM. Liz

Davis and Vaughan, Upland Road. Very helpful and they have their workshop at the back of the shop.

Also, wear a mouth mask while you are dealing with the mould so you are not breathing in the spores.

For the repairs, you could try John Procter, the luthier at Nunhead Green.

Could you try to identify what sort of bees they are from the BBKA website photos before you call out a beekeeper? Beekeepers collect honey bee swarms or colonies which can be re homed. If they are under a shed, they probably aren't honey bees, which build comb downwards.

I think these would be herbicides, not pesticides.

I think this is the theory:- Lime based is permeable. This means that when old bricks get wet e.g. after heavy rain, the moisture in the bricks can wick away through the mortar by capillarity and disperse to dry out. If the mortar is waterproof, the moisture is locked in the bricks and comes through to the inside. Modern bricks are different.
-
If it's an old wall, you need to use lime-based mortar, which is permeable, not cement, which is waterproof.

For anyone interested in how the new Ivydale school is going to look, the plans will be on view at a so-called "public" meeting tomorrow, Wednesday 10th December at Ivydale school, 3.30-7.00. This meeting was publicised by an A4 notice being pinned up outside the school. So unless you have children currently at the school or happen to have walked past and spotted the notice, you wouldn't know about the meeting.

Please don't offer her honey, even if it's organic. It may contain viruses. Bees should only have honey from their own colony. A drop or two of sugar syrup is best, made from white sugar, not brown, which can give them dysentery.

Just the word. I love Christmas.

Thanks James. I'll get in touch with her, although this info should be available from Southwark for all local residents, not just Ivydale parents. My children left Ivydale quite a while ago. I've also contacted our local councillor.

I live nearby too and am furious that I had to find out about this meeting from the EDF after it had happened. How did people who attended know about it? There was no local publicity. I had assumed the school would use the existing buildings - I can't believe those beautiful old houses are going to be demolished. Do you have any more info? There is zero on the Southwark website.
