My visa card was blocked yesterday because the bank noticed that whilst I was trying to use it at B&Q in Peckham someone else was trying to get cash out of an ATM in Australia. They concluded that at least one of us was up to no good and stopped the card. Today there was some discussion in the queue in HSBC about card cloning as it seems to be very common. The consensus there seemed to be that the blame lay with card payments processed at Somerfield.

Who cycles to work from East Dulwich?
martinj428 replied to willma's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I cycle between ED & Stratford. Just under 9 miles. Peckham, Surrey Canal, Southwark Park eventually to Rotherhithe Tunnel then pick up another canal to Mile End after which it's the main road. It takes quite a long time I think because there are 19 sets of traffic lights between Stratford & Mile End all of which seem timed to catch cyclists. The journey can take 2 hours by public transport though.
