If you were blind, partially sighted or in a wheelchair, it would be very shocking. There is a highways department in Southwark.

Thanks. Any idea how this idea can be rolled out to other wards?

James, Is it only East Dulwich Ward that offers this training?

there is a woman selling fresh pasta already in Northcross road market on Fridays and Saturdays.

What does the speed watch do beside measure the speed?

Post on James Barber's thread.

Southwark Council can levy heavy fines for polluting like this. Especially bad when windy. Take some pictures and email them.

Call Southwark Environmental Health, 0207 525 2000 and report it.

As far as I know both Ayre's and Kindred's make their own dough. I really like granary bread especially for toast and prefer Kindred's, but they usually sell out quickly. I was expecting not to like the Asda bread, but found it pretty decent, especially for toast and if you are on a budget. Another place to get interesting bread is the Turkish Food Centre on Camberwell New Road, next to Greek Orthodox church. Good place to stock up with beans and lentils etc. It helps if you have the use of a car. They also have decent pasta - 3 bags for one pound. The Greek place is open until at least 10 pm 7 days a week, and I think the Turkish centre is until at least 8 pm.

I find some of Ayre's prices to be extremely high, their crusty rolls for example. I think they are 40 pence (or more) each now. If I want rolls now, will get them at the Greek bakery in Camberwell Church Street, or even Sainsbury's where they do two packs of 4 in the bakery section for 65 pence. The Greek place also has good sesame bread for less than ?1 a loaf. I also like the granary bread at Kindred's much more than Ayre's. I went to Asda on the OKR a few weeks ago and found they did loaves of bread from their bakery section for 80 pence each, and they not bad at all.

More loud fireworks going off here last night and the night before.

Do you keep him in at night? If not, I would start doing so now. The foxes are very bold now.

I just bumped a post with contact details they made in the What's on Section.

Margot, What road are you in?

The plane noises don't bother me as I don't live at the same end of ED he does, however I do have sympathy for him.

Noise is subjectve - Fireworks that sound like rockets and bombs going off for more than an hour are torture. A pretty display with a bit of wooshing is different, noisewise, and possibly safety wise. After reading the laws on fireworks, I cannot see how they are better than they were before, whatever they were before. Nothing to stop older kids buying them for younger ones. Even if they are only sold on a few days a year, then there isn't anything to stop people stockpiling them to set off at other times. The current laws allow fireworks to be let off for 16+ hours a day.

The OP asked for British made goods.

There is a company called Calzeat in Scotland that makes scarves, and other textiles. There are also a number of Welsh companies making blankets, one is Melin Tregwynt.

Going to displays is different than letting them off mindlessly in your back garden as long as they are supervised or done by competent people.
