I posted a thread last week about Streetbank - a new website dedicated to helping communities lend, borrow and give away things and skills to their neighbours - and there's been a really encouraging response from people who've had a look at the site and signed up. The latest person to sign up has a 1 and 3 year old daughter - and has recently posted clothes to give away to a good home.


Really hope we get more and more members as word gets round...takes 3 minutes to sign on and who knows where it might lead...free stuff, more work/business opportunities - less waste - perhaps you'll even make a new friend or two in the process.... www.streetbank.com

I just wanted to give an update on Streetbank.com which is now really starting to take off in East Dulwich.


We've recently seen sombrero hats and piano's being lent and given away (in that order) and there have also been some very happy tales of new friendships forming as a result, too.


The more people who join, the better the site becomes so do please spread the word if you can. It's so easy to join and is a great way to bring communities together - as well as save money and energy too, of course.


Facebook, twitter and LinkedIn status updates for those who've joined seem to work really well. With each new member, the site becomes a little more useful and much more fun, too.

    • No hesitation in recommending Pavel and his excellent company. So glad we were able to have a slot in the schedule. Our move has been stressful in many ways so it was a huge relief to have the contents of our home dealt with by kind, responsive professionals. 
    • I have someone from Which Tech phoning on Monday afternoon. I couldn't get an earlier appointment. I am hoping that now there is a visible display, they will be able to get me online and then  remotely control the laptop and identify what went wrong and whether it is an ongoing fault or, if not, whether it is likely to recur. If they can't, or if they identify a hardware fault,  I will have to grit my teeth and let John Lewis's third party "repair" company take it away and deal with it 😭 I'm very grateful for your advice, but when I saw "Windows will restart automatically" my immediate reaction was to think "but suppose it doesn't" and "suppose the screen goes black again" which I know is very negative but I'd rather someone else was there when I did it, albeit on the end of the phone! Meanwhile, every cloud etc, as I have installed Word on my phone, which I didn't know was possible, and I have been editing and printing documents from there.  I haven't investigated whether I can do the same with Excel, but I will see what happens on Monday.
