Running down a hill because it's there

Skipping

Trailing your hand along a metal fence and feeling a bit funny as your fingers bounce off every pole

The crunch of a really crispy leaf under your plimsoll (hard-soled shoes just don't get it)

Hope & Greenwood's lavender truffles

Tracking down a song on spotify you haven't heard since you first french kissed (or hearing it at Lucky 7s)

Orion's Belt

Dicing onions with german steel that you sharpened yourself

The first ros? of summer being a good one

Laughing til a little bit of wee almost comes out

Singing along to Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves in front of the mirror

RosieH, I respectfully worship you from afar. You are a queen of your sex.

If I were twenty one and a half years younger you'd be fending off my clumsy advances on a weekly basis.

Together now "And every night all the men would come around...and lay their money down"

Unexpected arrival of DVD box set I forgot I ordered in the post, hurrah!


Predicted four whole days in a row of sunshine.


Infectious joy of friend who is going on holiday on Monday.


Tiny hope still aflame that someday soon I might actually find somewhere permanent to live after only six freaking months of looking.


Silly list threads that make me laugh, because God knows we all need a bit more laughter in our miserable, humdrum, lives.


Work colleague has announced his wife is expecting a baby.


Yesterday was payday.


Today, the world is good.

      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.

      postal collections

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      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.
