(This is my first time using the Forum so I apologise if this is in the wrong section. I'm not intending to spam)

South London Samba is a new drumming ensemble based in Peckham/Nunhead. We are a group of young people (around 10 of us) aged between 15-21 who love to drum. I (Adam Ouissellat, in photo above) decided to start the band at the end of 2012 and saved up to buy all the equipment. Our drums are Brazilian surdos/bass drums and snares. I arrange tunes to be high energy and exciting, and although we use samba drums we aren't confined to any style.

We would love to perform anywhere! Any schools, fairs etc. are exactly what we are looking for. I am aiming to build support in the local area and hopefully expand. I appreciate any help/ideas/suggestions. We started at Ivydale School (rehearsing and then performing in an assembly) in December but have not been able to continue. We are in dire need of a rehearsal space with storage so if anyone is able to help, please contact me. The band is invite only as I want to maintain a high level of performance but if any schools or groups want a teacher I am more than happy to. Non-members won't be able to use my equipment though as it is very expensive.

  Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country. 10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies. Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge. I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

  I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining. And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend. So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure. I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

  If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

  I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy. We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
