I had a similar experience a few years ago when a relative said she had seen a letter that I had sent to a solicitor come up on her iPad. I don't have any apple devices so it can't have been that our devices were synched. I tried to find the document on her iPad shortly after and couldn't find it again. It was very odd and we never got to the bottom of it so if anyone can explain it, I'd be really interested too.

Read The Da Vinci Code (probably an exaggeration but entertaining nevertheless). Someone I knew who followed Opus Dei assured me he didn't wear a Cilice 🤔

I think an episode of Black Mirror sponsored by conway sounds more plausible than the left wing plot mentioned on the other thread 🤔 Has anyone seen the film Holes? It could be a perfect solution to potential unemployment caused by AI....dig a hole, then fill it up again then soon after do it all again. I think it could have cross party support rather than just a left wing plot 🤔

There is Trinco as well on Lordship Lane. Tasty and reasonable Sri Lankan food. Amrutha in Honor Oak is vegan and v good. Both worth a visit.

Just check that your friend is happy to sit on the bus for at least 90 minutes, more if bad traffic. It is a very long bus journey but a good one bus route.

Because mopeds and motorbikes are registered, insured vehicles and electric powered bikes are not so they're more difficult to control. The police can confiscate them and the government could enforce registration of them as motor bikes but what other control is there?

It's the start of the autumn council sweep up of fallen leaves.

I believe there's one in the Library of Things at East Dulwich Leisure Centre https://www.libraryofthings.co.uk/catalogue/browse

Another excellent article from Jim Waterson's London Centric reporting https://www.londoncentric.media/p/kitchen-foil-and-algerian-markets?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email Interesting that there seem to be favoured and repeated routes for phone snatching for particular thieves. Seems ED might be one of them ☹️

Are you a very wealthy second home owner? Do you have dual nationality? It's not that easy to leave your country if you're neither of these. Where would you go?

Don't think there'll be much glee around today with what's happened in Poland and France 😕

Make sure you use a chartered surveyor. Party wall surveyors need no actual surveying qualifications to set themselves up as a PWS. You don't need RICS qualifications to be a member of Pyramus and Thisbe society. When a PW agreement is straight forward then it's not a problem to have a unqualified PWS but if you run into structural problems you need a qualified surveyor as a PWS who fully understands buildings.

Spinach restaurant is good for vegetarians.

Being armed is very different. I know a couple of people erroneously stopped by armed police in London and it was extremely scary for them, much more so than being stopped by unarmed police. One of them was given a leaflet afterwards to explain why armed police had the right to randomly stop and search them and their vehicle so that made everything alright! So I don't think it should just be minimised by saying they all carry guns in that area so it was ok. It was a ridiculous bit of policing which we clearly agree on.

Wasn't he making an ironic remark?..after all if you have a punchable pair of balls, you probably shouldn't be in the women's loos. I think we can agree that five armed police for such a remark on X by this man who, as far as I know, has never been considered a violent threat to anyone, was inappropriate and a worrying development about the policing of speech in this country.

And if it's not a technical loophole ie it's just wrong, do you still feel so happy giving your money away?

While it is the case that if the rules are broken one pays a fine. I have no issue with that. Unfortunately Southwark (via cameras or poorly trained traffic wardens) has incorrectly fined people in a number of different situations. Southwark then has to pay a number of staff to do a significant amount of unnecessary paperwork in responding to appeals, refunding fines, correcting signage etc and this is wasted money. It is right that Southwark staff and councillors should be held to account for wasting our money which is why it is worthy of BBC news. They could just get it right the first time.

Although yesterday a delivery guy on an electric motorised bike stopped at a red light crossing and waited for me to cross while a dickhead in lycra and helmet sped up and swung across the road to go over the crossing behind me at speed. So it's probably just dickheads and danger seekers ride dangerously and others don't. 🤔

Bob what happened to your career as an underwriter?

I have to say I have only ever received a reply from one of the Goose Green Councillors and that is James McAsh. That's not to say Cllr Smith hasn't read my email and done something about my question but he has never replied.

I've used ziffitt and I liked it because they collect from your house so no lugging of heavy boxes; once accepted you know they're definitely going to take them whereas many charity shops just don't want books. But it takes a bit of time to scan the books. The amount you receive is small so I wouldn't do it for the money. For me the main attraction is the collection of the boxes from your house and the fact that they actually want the books that you send them.
