Can I place information about monthly series of music at hospice and review on new vets - first in what is on although not in ED but Penge and second in lounge Also what is the form about selling pets - fully understand that this is a public forum but do feel that other platforms should be used re selling animals - just interested so I don't offend folk

I couldn't agree with you more - more like a race track at certain times of the day. I looked the other day and seems to me that whilst there is 20mph signs at top end - by church, doesn't seem to be any other markings. Not sure about road by Peckham Rye. Would happily sign a petition for introducing some form of calming measure - know that Southwark Council I think need to monitor road for a period of time before doing something about it.

South London Jazz Orchestra - heard them play yesterday afternoon in Ruskin Park and mentioned anyone can join. Think it might be community led? Anyway, I thought they were good.

Call them?

Recycling - Can you help?

Had them a couple of years ago by cafe area and near FP Building - was told not enough use at all so went.!! Real pity - would sign petition or whatever to get them installed but need more than just a couple in park. -
Go onto Ruskin Park website - think kids pool is no open. Wouldn't have thought you could go near paddling pool in Brockwell today as they have event on and seem to have closed off vast sections of park

Dulwich Park at Francis Peak Centre -
Science Museum in London - think Tim Peakes space craft is on show, Hornimen always has things on, how about a walk in London - years ago took an 11 year old boy on a walk round London - guided - ours was lawyers etc. Also we took a boat put on Regents Park. Coding?? Cooking Classes? Really depends what he likes but hope this helps. Wimbledon Chikdrens Theatre? Christmas Tree Farm - actually animal farm!

Hi, I need 6 bottles of their dill and mustard sauce which I use for fish plus salad dressing. I am in ED and just can't get there before the end of the month, so if you can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Do send me a PM. Enjoy the sunshine & weekend festivities...

Hi All, I am planning to go to this on Friday 6th July and was wondering if anyone wanted a lift? Only one way I am afraid as I won't be coming back until Monday, if you can wait until Monday, then wil be a round trip. I can take 2 people, even better if you can navigate..!! Cost per person to be discussed. PM if interested.

OMG.. only just joined Talk Talk and customer service etc is so appalling have left for a competitor. Speed was not even up to scratch and they admitted it.. What was strange was the fault I had from existing supplier b4 I moved to them was still there even though BT guy came and assured me that he had installed a new line. Broke my contract as they could not help - tried but you are sent to a call centre out of UK. I got South Africa and Phillipines. Finally demanded to speak to a Manager. To make sure this was all documented, sent e mails. They do respond, days later. Expect calls from Welcome Department - who don't actually know what is going on with your account, would have thought that in this tech age, everything should be on screen..praise, complaints, etc.. Certainly not in my case.. The problem so I understand it is everything comes out of a box somewhere and don't assume, if you are near two boxes you are likely to get connected to them. All other companies aside from I believe Virgin & Sky use BT lines.. Then you have the problem as to who is responsible for which bit of line. BT I am told might or did in the past put their prices up by 50 % whilst still in contract.. Having learnt all of this, when to be frank I neither had the time or patience.. I guess there is too much traffic on lines at certain times & whoever you go through unless it is Virgin or Sky simply in my very basic understanding too many folk and teck using a line. Could go into it further but well, at the end of the day, it is the companies that control it and depends on where line starts and finishes with regard to who is responsible for what. Gone rthough different frequency as well.. Given a website fast.com which in my case showed the different speeds at different times. Good luck to all.. All I want is a reliable service not one that is so erratic, you never know what is happening..sometimes e mails went through, others not at all, and as I run a small business just cannot afford this. What I have learnt, is not to put all your eggs in one basket - so, my broadband will be with one company and my cell with another - if one goes down or weather or anything else, at least you have another company. Guess if I was in my 20/30's or that era, now fully understand why the young have 2 phones.. Only wonder what happens to the older generation who experience what I have been through. Hope this helps some... Not a rant as such, but more frustration to have to learn about all this..good learning curve though.. Not sure what to expect from next supplier.... Thinking about going back to paper pen and fax..!!

I was in DV circa 6.30 & passed half moon lane as well. Green Dale, that was what I was thinking of..sadly, no sighting.. I only mention the hospital'cause a couple of years ago, that was where a dog was found after extensive looking but, by pure chance & no building works as now.If it is scared and no doubt hungry,just hope it is found soon...clearly must be hiding somewhere during the day & the only other places I can think of are school grounds. Will be out again tomorrow anyhow, so will check if more sightings.How about putting photos up on trees - not all use forum. -

Any more sightings??? Going out around 6 so will keep my eye open.. Has occurred to me that just maybe might find a building site to take refuge..ED hosp??? Really feel so so sorry for ISIS... Best too keep my mouth shut as to how I actually feel, and as I have compassion, God only knows how owners must be feeling for this to have happened.... -
Curve ball here, but how about tea tree oil? I am not a fan of chemicals..!!Or even lavender, that has worked for me in the past..

So sorry to hear that... Would suggest you report to Battersea Dogs Home as well and perhaps check later today or tomorrow. I assume she is microchipped so you may like to let them know your new address - a bummer at weekend also local dog wardens of both Southwark and Lambeth - sorry don't have number. Will keep my eyes open. Hope you find her soon -
Can one join an adult beginners group for French? How much? When and where

My understanding though doesn't effect me - walker can walk 5 at a time but only 3 off lead at once...yes, interesting how they plan to police it as not enough staff to start with - perhaps community pay back - now that would be a joke..!! Most dog walkers I know would frankly welcome being licenced as we are considerate, well most of us are and being doing it for a number of years. It is more the start ups who then employ other staff as far as I am concerned when things tend to come unstuck and leads to us self employed walker running our own business dealing with complaints and aggression from general public. Real pity that whilst I believe proposed certainly by Lambeth last year did not go ahead. Frankly wish Southwark would do the same thing and Lambeth then everyone is singing from same page. Almost certain walkers in Battersea have been licenced for years so what isthecproblem in our part of world. Do agree that woofers should be on lead during breeding season for birds but how many townies care?

Thanks for that .... glad it isn?t just me going through it but to be fair as I totally distrust them and have insisted on e mail trail the guy I have been dealing with is fine.. it is the company and other agents/employees or what ever they are who is main problem.

What to do in Dulwich with a 4 year old.
beansprout replied to Pugwash's topic in The Family Room Discussion
How about painting her own plate or mug? There is a place in ED that does this - for the life of me can't remember what it is called but maybe other EDF folk might give you contact details. Best I can do is from Goose Green going towards Peckham Rye Park, on shopping parade on left near Tesco's. Not sure if it is still open but last year a play centre opposite Brockwell Park near Herne Hill area. -
I would not touch EE personally - having been with them for over 10, the fibre they suggested I went with is dreadful so have now moved to another competitor. When called to let them know I was cancelling within cooling off period the were incredibly rude and to make matters worse chose to threaten me as well. Seriously now considering takingvthemattercfurther as I have e mail trail but sadly not for yesterday conversation and agent/employee refused to send me e mail.
