My mum used to go to a Caribbean shop in Sydenham in the 90s but can't remember the name of the shop. The man's name was Roger. Any ideas? TIA -
I look out for them tomorrow over Horniman Gardens. Separately our garden has been invaded by large birds, magpies, a jay or two, starlings, a couple of wood pigeons and less great and blue tits than usual, virtually no long tailed tits and only the occasional dunnock. No blue tit nesting this year either..... Here's a lovely picture when the common redpolls visited a few weeks ago, feeding on sunflower chips with the goldfinches. Note the home made anti-parakeet cage (from a squirrel proof feeder) -
Special Advisors aka SPADs didn't want the report published, I know as I have the contacts. And that isn't Peter Walker. It was published because it was leaked. Look through the executive summary line by line and there are some positive views and some negative ones. This therefore comes across as balanced; as all academic studies should be. Sunak want to appeal to the motorists vote, and therefore Harper picks on the negatives. The Guardian, LCC and the like pick on the positives. That's the way the world works. But as said government wanted it to be a hatchet job, and it wasn't. I expect the LTNs to be still there in years to come. Let's see how Starmer reacts now the ULEZ has got the thumbs up in the Mayoral elections.

I used a white floor paint, whether you keep redoing it depends on how bothered you are about scuffs, which I'm not 😂 I just pretend it's supposed to look like that 😂 I hoover it then mop it with Flash or something similar in a bucket. Some things have stained it in places, but obviously a white floor in a kitchen is liable to get stained. Sometimes I put rugs down if I want a change. You need to make sure the floorboards don't have gaps where water could get in and rot them. In the kitchen I originally had a concrete floor, so tongue and groove was put over it (so no gaps between the boards, though it looks like floorboards) but my bathroom has actual floorboards which were painted white. I know people who have just used ordinary paint rather than floor paint, but I imagine it's not so hard-wearing. You could ask advice in a paint shop.
