I see their website has it as https://www.royalmail.com/services-near-you/delivery-office/peckham-and-east-dulwich-delivery-office-se15-5au, though I wouldn't be at all surprised if they're also distinct administrative or operational entities for some purposes. I note, for example, that Peckham (SE15) isn't on the list.

A reminder of the current situation. Covid-19 Eligibility: https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/covid-19-vaccine/ Availability: NHS are no longer running their own appointment-making system. This winter's version is still available from pharmacies until 31 January. They may have individual availability times, see: https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-offering-walk-in-COVID-19-vaccination-services Flu Flu vaccinations (65+, pregnant, higher risk, or private) are available from some pharmacies. See https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-that-offers-free-flu-vaccination for details of eligibility and a link to a pharmacy finder. Some may offer appointments: you may have to dig down into their individual listing. RSV Currently eligible/recommended: If pregnant (at 28+ weeks), or age 75-79, or became 80 on or after 1 Sept 2024. This has been available from GP practices. I was offered one by text. When I responded a week later they didn't have any available but gave me one by appointment three weeks later. https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/rsv-vaccine/ Other vaccines https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/

There is also the compendious Traffic Signs Manual which you might find useful: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/traffic-signs-manual. "The Traffic Signs Manual offers advice to traffic authorities and their contractors, designers and managing agents in the United Kingdom, on the use of traffic signs and road markings on the highway network. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction and the legislative background."

Back in the stone age it wasn't uncommon to see dog turds in the street that had weathered and turned white -- probably residual calcium from what they'd been fed. At that stage I think they were pretty friable and close to disappearing. Mother Nature doing her bit.

In case anyone's wondering, ED is back in the list of DOs currently performing poorly. I got the email saying so yesterday, and the daily list is still as above.

https://bnf.nice.org.uk/drugs/naproxen/#exceptions-to-legal-category has: "Exceptions to legal category" "Can be sold to the public for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhoea in women aged 15–50 years subject to max. single dose of 500 mg, max. daily dose of 750 mg for max. 3 days, and a max. pack size of 9 x 250 mg tablets." You can also scroll down on that page for a link to a list of all individual medicinal preparations, including for each its legal category (eg POM).

Walk-in Covid-19 vaccinations are actually available until 31 January. See https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/covid-19-vaccine/ for eligibility details and the link to https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/covid-19-services/covid-19-vaccination-services/find-a-walk-in-covid-19-vaccination-site/. FWIW I get mine done at Kristal who have always seemed pretty efficient. https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/ covers all vaccination types. RSV is done by GP practices. Flu vaccinations (65+, pregnant, higher risk, or private) are available from some pharmacies, some by appointment. I've checked one of the latter and they have dates shown available well into next year. https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-that-offers-free-flu-vaccination The original and current title of this thread is "Covid Flu and RSV jabs - you have until the 19th of Dec to get these ." I suggest it be revised tomorrow the 19th -- I've never seen online booking available for same-day.

Hi. I remember seeing numerous posts like this over the years, and don't recollect a single one in which someone's replied: "Oh yes, it's ...". In fact I don't remember seeing even a single report of someone going out and trying to locate the noise themselves. I think I do remember suggesting the use of a cardboard tube as direction-finding aid if they do, as I know that some sounds and frequencies are difficult to locate by direction using ears alone. But I'm still looking forward to one day reading the news of a mystery noise unmasked.

Lime bike phone theft 11.12.24 7pm
ianr replied to Wreath-theif's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Well done. If you're interested in helping to possibly nail down the perp -- to get them identified at least, even if the police/CPS don't end up with enough for a prosecution -- I wonder if it would be helpful to: (1) contact Lime now, to tell them of the time and location and incident, and that you are reporting the theft to the police, and ask them if they are able and willing to check their bike location records for the incident and _retain_ them for use by the police. It may be that records of each bike user's travels may not be retained long after their hire period has ended. And (2) notify the police on-line, with the basic facts. -
No experience other than of web searching. [smiley] PO's own website pointed to a uk.gov page which pointed to: https://consumer.paypoint.com/international-driving-permits, which lists quite a few local Paypoint-enabled stores and says what's needed for the application.

https://geomap.southwark.gov.uk/connect/analyst/mobile/#/main is the map location, and attached is my harvested search result. I selected the "Parking Bays (Traffic Restriction Orders)" folder from the RH list of overlays, then deselected all the many item types with labels starting 'TRO' until finding the orangey one labelled "TRO Double Yellow Line" that lit up the CPRd ones. There's also a facility on the map to open a table of TROs, which I'm happy to leave to someone else to investigate. Unless you can find only one TRO matching a location and, after careful reading, find that it's of limited duration that's been exceeded, I think you should probably assume that its matching yellow lines are thought to be active. If there's a disparity between the map and actuality I've no idea if that affects a line's legal status. PS And better not trust my negative finding of no other line types on the map in that location without confirmation.
