Hi Admin,

Ever since the server upgrade every time I click on a message in a thread I have to refresh - sometimes several times -before the message loads. Is anyone else having this problem? Any idea what could be causing this?

Thanks,

-A

And don't even think of letting anyone have access to them.


18/6: edited to remove an example selection of ten icon smileys (five of them animated). Even a few seconds of them can make some feel queasy. :-(


The ascii versions, as eg used above and by Sue below, are of course always usable. Ed [22/6]: But now again likely to be translated by the forum software into the graphic ones.

Dear Admin,


Have we ever had any thoughts about a proper jobs section? Either advertising local jobs or for smaller london firms looking to tap into local East Dulwich talent? I don't feel it fits within the tradesmen cleaners section or the general classifieds (more item based) and could warrant a place of its own. Nor am I talking pyramid schemes, spam or make ???'s whilst at home junk. I'm thinking any jobs in local shops, bars or SME's or any central London firms looking for part time workers (of which there are lots in the happy nappy valley of SE22).


I've struggled to find a suitable spot for mine and so just wanted to check where's best?


Thank you in advance.

Hi


We have had a couple of requests about it before but I don't think it warrants an entire section on its own. I want to keep the forum as compact as possible with as few sections as possible otherwise it will become a sprawling mass, I would only be persuaded if there was a big call for a jobs section however at the moment there's not.


Thank you for your suggestion though, and it is on the list of possible new sections but in the meantime please post it in the East Dulwich business section as long as it's an ED business looking for someone.

I've not used anything that's not on the forum server. But i don't think I dare say any more.


But while I'm here, can I at least gripe again about the way the forum software erroneously treats some ascii strings. Below is an arithmetic series. Look what it does to the bracketed 6 term. All that's needed to correct that behaviour is to change the mapping in the smileys file, or remove the entry entirely. I assume that not many people use the ascii form for input anyway, or that it's canonical for that particular smiley.

      Such a shame the Odeon and bowling at Surrey Quays has gone

      By Rockets · Posted

      Went to book a film to find Surrey Quays Odeon is no more. Such a shame, I didn't realise everything was being  shut there. Used to love a bit of bowling at the Hollywood Bowl too. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/rotherhithe/surrey-quays-odeon-cinema-confirms-august-closure-date/

      Nunhead Art Trail information

      By Sue · Posted

      Thanks for the link! I should have thought to add that. If you click on "artists" in the menu, there is information about the artists, but it's very difficult to relate it to the map when you can't print off the map (at least I haven't been able to, but I've only tried from my phone so far).

      Do you mean the small charity shop on Lordship Lane just before you get to the roundabout? Near the pharmacist? Can't remember what it's called. The Mind Shop is the one on the corner after  you have crossed  the road to go to the station, and I'm pretty sure the jeweller/watch repairer wasn't there - it was actually on Lordship Lane, at the roundabout end though. Crikey, I had forgotten about the video shop. The stationers was a strange place, but they sold art stuff as well which was sometimes useful. Then some time later there was that large place - ED Deli? - next to the EDT, which had very yummy Florentines, but seemed to go into a gradual decline until it eventually closed. If it had opened a bit later it might have survived, but probably gentrification wasn't sufficiently advanced at that point. Platform 1 was for a series of pop up restaurants, wasn't it? Or at least, a restaurant with a series of pop up chefs. I don't recall it ever being a cocktail bar? And they were originally going to call it a very rude name ( which sadly I can't remember,  but I think it may have been Pussy Liquor  - I don't think they were cat owners) and there was a whole thread on here where various people pointed out that it wasn't a very appropriate name, so they changed it 🤣🤣🤣 I think someone must have thought it was hilarious because I think Meat Liquor had just opened down the road ...  For a short time there was a very good South Indian vegetarian restaurant, but hardly anybody went to it, and sadly it closed. Again, it might have survived now, it was probably a bit too early in the gentrification process.
