Maybe a better comparison would be my thread thanking the staff at Kings for looking after me so well when I broke my arm? I just think that publically thanking someone is a good thing and provides balance to all the reports of burglaries and thefts and other depressing things.

Hear hear for StraferJack actually.


Occasionally in recent weeks I couldn't help feeling PR has been using this forum as her own personal blog. Seriously - we get that you enjoyed your recent trip and enjoyed taking lots of photos, but posting them up here with a running commentary - and lots of people going "wow - thanks for sharing". Is that really appropriate for a community forum? It wasn't really a very inclusive activity, was it? There used to be a thread where lots of people posted a single photo or two that they'd taken - that's much more in keeping with the ethos of the forum. Rather than me saying - ooooh, I've been on holiday - would the people of East Dulwich like to see my snaps. Gosh - I think twice before inflicting my holiday snaps on family and friends.


Not to mention the fact this forum really can't afford the space such photos use up.


Get a blog - those generally interested will follow.

As I said ? I?m glad PR was unhurt in the accident.


And I think that thanking people who have helped is actually a Good Thing and I generally support it. So I?m not against any of that in PR?s post ? that wasn?t where my criticism was aimed at.


But beyond that I hesitate to say anything lest I get sworn at again. And I?m not sure what cliques have to do with it either

Personally, a simple thank you to the person(s) in question usually suffices, but each to their own...

    • My bird app just picked up swifts before I heard or saw them!  
    • I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you.

    • Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him! 
    • ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
