Assuming Peckham Arch is still sheltering all-comers, Dr Bike will be under the Arch indexing gears, pumping up tyres, tightening brakes and giving wise advice on filthy chains (?clean it? would be a printable precis)

Nothing costs anything. The wise advice is naturally free. One professional mechanic and two first-class amateurs. Maps, chat, cycling gossip. I?m afraid there is sometimes a queue but they clear it quickly.

There must be more to it than that. Er, no there isn?t. We don?t make a profit. You don?t have to join anything, sign anything or do anything more than let the goodwill roll over you. Wave as you go by.

All these good deeds are funded by Southwark Cyclists not the council (no money) or Sustrans (ditto). We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer, more enjoyable cycling in London, pretty much as their name says. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk

  Something doesn't quite smell right here and probably it's not the chicken. Both the OP and TheWeekEnd specifically mention chicken thigh fillets. TWE purchased £14 worth of chicken thigh fillets and they were thrown away "probably for the third time". £14 equates to around 12 fillets which is a lot. Could some have been frozen after purchase and then thawed? And thawed properly before cooking? TWE has a total of 4 posts of which 3 are on this thread.

  Thanks to all for the advice, very glad to have this community for these enquiries. Here is how it got resolved in case its useful for anyone in the future: I had ordered some garden waste bags, and when the Veolia person came around I just asked them, and they were more than happy to take it no questions asked. 🙂

  I keep seeing a thread 'missing cat', but you've been found. Not sure if all would consider that a good thing. Not a lot new happening .... When you back in Blighty?

  In March Oli and his team did an excellent job of the following work at a property I manage. 1. Completely removing existing broken front path. Covering and securing the void (coal shute) beneath using concrete lintels, waterproof membrane and concrete. Laying a compacted sub-base and new clay pavers. 2. Removing broken fence. Securely installing 6 fence posts and 5 fence panels across the end of the back garden. Base of posts wrapped in plastic sheath and set in post mix. 3. Removing broken render from terrace steps and cleaning then re-rendering steps where needed and repairing other parts. 4. Jet washing rear patio. I would like to thoroughly recommend him to you for a job done very well at a fair price.
