Castleton

Planning an autumn trip, anyone familiar and able to give tips on good locations for accommodation etc? Ways of getting around, things to see off the beaten track?

Has anyone looked at Leigh on Sea? 47 minutes from Fenchurch St, a few arty places, cinema in nearby Southend . It's got a tidal nature reserve on the doorstep of the station..

I can't believe we still flush perfectly clean water down the toilet! Grey water systems should be mandatory too

I hope you never run into the last character eating chicken on my bus-he was an older guy, and when he'd finished his food, removed his dentures and picked them clean 😗 I'm still getting over it!

We just count the pieces!

I really hope this is true, but it wasn't the case when I worked late shifts at the station branch

I can recommend Bluegrove House, in Bermondsey SE16. Never seen such a clean, caring place. I visited a person there, I have no other ties with the place

A delight, but I love Paul Giamatti. Funny, touching, perfect Christmas movie released in January!

Tree surgeon, Southwark Council?

I was about to come on here and ask the same about the 37! No info on bus stops, don't even say closed outside North Dulwich station with the road closed!

If you don't have any response locally, I've always found Meetup.com has many groups for every different interest you can name

So many book bargains! Coffee table type books/gifts available Looks like 50% off bric a brac too!

Lordship Lane branch only. Adult shop only. Because a refurb over the Christmas period is happening, they are clearing the books at 50% off, some lovely bargains! ALSO-NOT OPEN CHRISTMAS EVE THIS YEAR

Objected

Southwark has now relaunched it's HERE TO HELP COST OF LIVING FUND. To be clear, it's for low incomes and people NOT on benefits but worth a look. Search cost of living fund on the council website

You & Yours on R4 covered this yesterday, interesting listen

I got a text and am not even a customer, never have been

I'm sure there would be! There's a woman already doing some similar sessions called Tiffy

I had an expected delivery date given on the tracker of Sunday but the excuse given was 'property inaccessible' which to my knowledge has never been the case :-) Inaccessible because delivery was not even attempted IMO

Just offered the flu jab from Tessa Jowell surgery by text, I'm not 65 yet!

Can't see the ad, but it's possible to report a post directly, via the actual post

I'm always recommending Meetup.com for leisure/cultural activities.

Sinead O'Connor. Only 56

The new charity shop in place of Pearspring has a back room full of books.DVD
