Join us on Tuesday for a stimulating and thought provoking practical talk about planning ahead.

Planning ahead for the one thing in life we know is certain: Death

Ann Kenrick and Trevor Moore will lead an interactive, informative and thought provoking evening explaining the key decisions you can make in advance, to ease the burden on your family and friends if you lose mental capacity and when your life finally ends: formal matters like Lasting Powers of Attorney for financial affairs and for health and care and Advance Decisions to refuse medical treatment; informal matters like the type of funeral you would like and end-of-life care options.

Let's embrace this sensitive topic and take steps to create a legacy of care and consideration for others.

Ann Kenrick is former CEO of the Charterhouse almshouse, member of the Education and Research Committee of St Christopher's Hospice and founder of End of Life Matters, a venture supporting people of all ages to create end of life plans and give them peace of mind.

Trevor Moore is a humanist celebrant and Chair of My Death, My Decision.

      I am sure what the new plan is but who knows how the postal service will work from here onwards

      postal collections

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      My experience is that my local letter box does have week-day-ly collections - but I think very early in the morning, not at the old 'around 5.00pm' times. There are several daily collections from the box outside the Forest Hill Road sub-post office. I don't think the 'Monday' tab is now ever changed. Mail collections from boxes have got nothing to do with the service we (don't) get from the Peckham Delivery Office. Your Wednesday 12th posting would probably only have been collected on Thursday 13th, if it was posted after 9.00am. If it was being delivered in East Dulwich (where the Peckham DO does come into play) then getting it by the following Tuesday is probably par for the course.

      Are there no daily collections from post boxes any more? On Wednesday Feb 12 I posted a Valentine's Card in the postbox which is about 20 metres from our house to make sure it arrived by Feb 14 (yes I know I could've put it thru letterbox but that's not as romantic is it). After I posted it I noticed the little metal thingy said "Monday" but I thought this must be a mistake and had not been changed. However, Valentine's Day came and went and no card arrived. In fact it arrived on the following Tuesday, Feb 18 so I'm guessing the Monday collection metal thingy was correct. Has it ever been announced officially that there are no longer daily collections from letterboxes? I remember a time, not even that long ago, when the red postman pat van would pull up at least twice a day, every weekday.

      Missing cat

      By Roddy · Posted

      My lovely tuxedo cat, Rexy, has been missing since Wednesday which is very out of character. Rodwell Road area, SE22. He is a rescue cat so really quite timid with people he doesn’t know. If you spot him, could you please contact me? Many thanks. He is chipped and neutered.  Photos attached.
