Friday afternoon friends' birthday drinks down at the Dog, followed by snifter or two in Inside 72, then ate an excellent red snapper down at the Drum, back to '72 for beer and Jack Daniels, cocktails in Black Cherry, then back to the Drum, poured myself into a cab at 2.20am.

More of the same on Saturday

Sunday: Superglued myself to the sofa with a copy of the Sindy.

Went down to Ramsgate on the Kent coast. Lovely to see the boats bobbing up and down in the sunny harbour. I didn't dip my toes in the sea though. May have to borrow my friend's lovely dogs sometime (I think one of them is in love with me) and take them for a walk on the beach (and no doubt a swim in the sea! - wet shaggy retriever anyone? ::o)


Had meal at a lovely Thai place there. Looks a very unassuming place but superb food - regularly in 'top 10 lists' for best Thai in south-east. Owner said she's currently practising her lines for a part in a Channel 4 film about Chinese gangs!? A man from Harry Potter films was also eating there. I didn't know who he was and was a bit miffed when kids wanted his autograph - I think he may have been in Auf Wiefesen(sp?) Pet. He had a very very deep voice which sounded a little scary! I also learnt how to say thank you in Thai (koppen ka!)


Drove through some lovely Kent villages on the way there - masses of poppies evrywhere.


Was up early and back late on Sat, so Sun was a lazy day.

    • 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.    
    • 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. 
    • I just wanted to add to this stream. We employed Paul Edgeley  to fix our lights upstairs. They had suddenly all gone out and we could not isolate the issue. He came round the next day and fixed the issue - a problem with the old wiring in the attic - he put in new wiring for us. We were so happy with the job  that we asked him to do some other work in the house. I'm happy to recommend Paul.   His number: 07802627967
