(This message will no longer be an announcement i.e. at the top of the listings, after lunchtime today (Monday))


I'm happy to announce a new area of the forum called The Lounge. After listening to what people have to say there's obviously a need for an area where people who use this forum can talk about things that aren't related to East Dulwich. A place to talk about music, meeting up, flirting, the benefits of Omega 3, the situation in Iran etc etc


You may hear me say every now and then "Take it to The Lounge" which is the polite way for me to say you're going off topic please go and take this elsewhere. I may also move or split some threads over to the Lounge as they will be more comfortable there.


I hope it works and thank you for using the Forum

Dear Administrator and Mr Keef,


Hurrah! At last, somewhere for 'the chattering classes' (my husband can be so nasty sometimes) - to chatter! Can I have the big aubergine coloured velvet armchair near the window? Mine is a big milkey latte and a large slice of blueberry cheesecake, .... oh rats, I have to work. Nevermind, I can chat later - that shall me my chair though, OK? I can't wait to hear all of Ms Polly Dorners news.........

How about a Garden Lounge area? Then those of us who like to scrabble around in the soil can have a great forum for flower talk........ (I can hear the collective groan of the under 30's.... or am I being appallingly ageist? )


Hurrah for ED and all our differing interests. Arcade fire and clematis armandii..beautiful combination. And it's sunny outside !!! I'm going off to commune with my crocuses (croci ? no )


skinny latte with almond croissant and a nice herbaceous border please.....

    • I've heard of one called Fox Angels perhaps google them?
    • Whilst walking my dog in Peckham Rye Park this morning, we noticed a fox in the undergrowth near to the park entrance at Colyton Road and Forest Hill Road.  It was dragging its left rear leg and brush along the floor. I have looked online for a local rescue centre but can't find one.  Does anyone know of a local wildlife rescue centre?  There seem to be a couple for birds but no other form of wildlife. Thank you.
    • Meanwhile, I'm withdrawing my previous high appreciation.  Firstly there were my attempts three days ago to provide the detailed information they needed,  to enable the technical team to check a specific post in their log  and see the server responses.  I found myself as if going round in circles.   The bot eventually told me that it was Support I should be sending it to, rather than 'here in chat'.  I'd been following the links to the numbered Ticket throughout and had not even been aware I was in a different part of the building.   It was beginning to feel as if I was being gaslighted so I just gave up, and went off to educate myself on the latest requirements the biggies such as Gmail require in ther DNS security information.  I've long had an SPF record, and it's now clear that I should be ready to install at least a DMARC, and preferably a DKIM one too, in my domain's DNS record.  I'd not noticed any recent problem before the migration, so had assumed (but haven't yet checked) that Plusnet have been inserting their own secure identity confirmation items, for known subscribers like me who use their mail relay to send email as from their personal domain.   Anyway, I've just  had another try at giving the bot the required information, and that seems to have succeeded, so I'll see wait to see what the Greenby techs say about it all. On top of that, yesterday evening I was searching for a really important email which I had to reply to,  which I'd purposely put in a separate Plusnet webmail folder.  I found that all my added folders there were empty, just as in Vladi's reports, which I'm immensely glad  of.  Knowledge of his experience and a fairly quick and successful resort  to his strategy worked for me too and helped ratchet down my alarm, which was present even despite the knowledge that somewhere I should be able to find another copy of the file. It could have been otherwise.  A system fault like that, unreported and left uncorrected, could potentially contribute to doing people real harm.  I remember two years ago, a single instant of deep fear, on hearing something on the radio about the dire legal effect that could result from an inaction similar to one of my own, that was immediately followed by a slight oddity in my hearing in one ear.  I connected the two and measured my BP for a period shortly after.  That more or less confirmed that there'd been a marked jag in my BP, occasioned by the moment of fear, that gradually declined.   Two or three days later I woke up with a severe  hearing loss in that ear.  That led to a referral to an ENT consultant, but by the time that arrived the loss had thankfully been more or less reversed.
