Sorry - have just realised it's the same standard email the rest of you have received. It will be interesting to see if the next lot of replies are different (given that some of our emails will have differed).

My interpretation is that Honaloochie said "Wat Graham26 sed"... people thought this was a pun, because a watt is a unit of power (but not a "wat", I don't know what that is).


Actually a whole load of electricity related puns just popped into my head, but I'll spare you for now...

You know what you are doing? You are giving them the chance to come up smelling of roses. If this PR woman had any savyy (and being in her particular job, I bet she's pretty good) she'll spin it, roll it out, get some media coverage and noone in the wider world will be wiser that it all started off as a complaint against it on the EDF. It'll look like a major initiative to help the environment. Bravo!

If it means that they turn off the lights and the tvs then does it matter? It'll take a lot more that a PR offensive about correcting poor environmental behaviour for Foxtons to come up smelling of roses.

Ohm I God, Jez and SophieS. Wire you not getting this?

Fuse two don't power yourselves a stiff drink and go back over the thread and figure it out, I might take to my bed faraday.

WoofMarkThe Dog, please contact SophieSofa, arrange to meter and explain, if you'd be so kind. Don't be terse though, it's not her volt.

I'll take Jeremy aside and explain watts watt.

computedshorty - She'd only be wasting energy if she put more water in the kettle than she actually needed for her cuppa. In fact, the use of a flask could be considered the bigger waste of energy as that flask had to be made....AND the water boiled.


Good news that the lights are off....were they all off or just the office lights, with the signs left on?

ALL lights were off - apart from the fridge light at the front. We need to keep an eye out to see whether this was a one-off accident or something more permanent.

      Just had this team/ company demolish a front wall, dig out the trees, build a wall, a place for the bins, landscape the front with stones and the liked and lay a new path and porch with a bull nose stone step. We are very happy with their work, diligent and attentive to detail, (it’s always difficult to know until things have bedded in for a few years but) good quality. Excellent communication. They’re very local, they know the East Dulwich clay, that the buildings and grounds are essentially mobile, and very dependant on the temperature and moisture in the ground. I think the key things for us - busy, always in and out, young kids etc - were we felt perfectly safe with them here, I don’t think they mucked about with pricing or quality once we were set (bits and bobs come up and were effortlessly sorted) and all in all, over the time it took for them to get the right quality (for them! the finish is good) we quite liked the team. We’d have them back in a moment, and are very happy to recommend them.

      Sorry to hear that this is happening to your son. East Dulwich Grove doesn't fall into Dulwich Hill ward, it is split depending on the postcode it would either be Goose Green SNT or Dulwich Village SNT, you may check which one using the link below. On the website would also be the team and any events being held in the future. If it is an emergency please call 999 or non-emergencies 101. https://www.met.police.uk/area/your-area/

      'Foodbank' street collector outside M&S

      By DuncanW · Posted

      CIC is not the appropriate vehicle for a fund-raising intermediary.  CICs are for businesses that typically sell something or provide a service for social good  but are not for profit; a community cafe or arts centre, or an IT skills training centre for  unemployed people. it costs £65 to set up  a CIC, the scrutiny is less than for a full charity, and the administrative burden is pretty low if you don’t file accounts. It’s hard to prove a negative, but if you were trying to build a credible, positive case for giving money to street collectors for CityHive CIC, that might be a little harder still… tho thank you, Zahid for joining the Forum to give it a go.
