What is leaking? Is it an appliance or a pipe or meter? Is there something in writing from the Gas Board? Has the landlord been notified? I’d call the local council and speak to someone there.

Wow, that’s a lot. What was the price before?

Scruffy Mummy, so glad to hear that you finally got an appointment. If you can bear to, make a complaint about what happened previously with the practice manager. Do you and your husband listen to the Movers and Shakers podcast related to Parkinsons?

It was on Twitter/X but from a couple of days ago.

Wonder why there’s a shortage of GPs. Is it illness or maybe they don’t want to pay the cost of getting in a locum. Locums can earn circa £100 ph for a day’s work. There is an online advert with a company called Dream Medical for a locum GP for a 12 month rota close to ‘Dulwich’ station paying £80 ph. It also says they pay travel and accommodation costs. Sounds like it might be Tessa Jowell. Could someone find it and post the advert on here, for some reason I can’t do it at the moment. I typed in Locum GP Dulwich London and that came up. It seems like the NHS has a separate list for locum GPs. Did anyone else see this posted a couple of days ago regarding A&E at Lewisham Hospital. Grim.

I was referring to pedestrians needing to be fearful of being robbed by youths on bikes.

I guess the bread they have that day is going to have the previous days date on it as the store wouldn’t be able to sell it the day after, The Lordship Lane M&S used to yellow sticker their freshly baked bread at the end of the day.

What a way to have to live.

That’s a shame. Do you know what the premises will become? I’m quite sure the dry cleaner near the Post Office took the duvets to the launderette on LL/corner of Pellatt Road. One of the women who worked there told me.

I love their onion bhajis and the green sauce supplied with them. The dal is good too. Not tried the dosas yet. Just had a look at their menu which looks very interesting.

What other NHS outlets are there aside from phlebotomy?

I was told that the two local M&S stores donate their bakery items (such as the bread) to the Albrighton. This is instead of yellow stickering them at the end of the day.

This looks like an excellent solution.

Heartblock, thanks for the link you posted. It’s not good that the company running Tessa Jowell has managed to reform several times and leave their creditors significantly out of pocket. Apparently they owe £4.3 million to unsecured creditors. They also seem to be skilled at financial irregularities. Wonder if Dr Love’s departure had anything to do with this.

In case anyone doesn’t know, Dr. Jonathan Love no longer works there. He left last year. His departure was announced by on the website. I miss the old Melbourne Grove. I feel it went downhill when Concordia took over.

I’ve been asked for date of birth but no ID was requested. This was when I’d ordered some kitchen (vegetable) knives. I also noticed online that John Lewis won’t even send out any knives by delivery and this includes knives as part of a cutlery set. What if you were unable to get to a shop?

Sight hounds or sight hound crosses (lurchers) often catch and kill squirrels. I’ve seen it happen once. The park gardeners have confirmed this to me and one I spoke to said that she was happy about it as the squirrels dig up the bulbs they have planted. There are many squirrels around the lake area. And to confirm, I’m not happy about dogs killing squirrels. Sight hounds (and other dogs) often kill cats and small dogs as well. I’m not happy about that either.

Tell us what really happened. Why was she off the lead there? But, you weren’t there were you?

Very irresponsible owners of that poor dog but I hope this story stops it happening to any other dog.

You could advertise on the Olio App.

Is the charge going up this year?

Thanks for posting.

Yes, they have helped me in the past. I do use them for MOTs.

I’d report it to 111. Similar behaviour to men/boys who have been seen doing flashing/indecent exposure.
