  1. I'm not sure about what I saw today and just wanted to put it out there... A friend and I sat on one of the benches near the pond and a guy had a small net that he seemed to be catching fish with! Smallish fish, he just went from side to side and put the catches in a bucket. When we left, I asked what he was catching and he said insects for his koi carp! It wasn't insects! But is it suspicious? We both felt uneasy he was taking something from the wildlife
  2. I used a beautifully cooled 63 the other day, in fact my favourite moment was a passenger plugging in her hand held fan, to further aid comfort!
  3. Anyone on Twitter could check, seems to be the way things get communicated frequently these days. Lack of sign on the door was certainly odd
  4. Just before 6pm, approached and the store was closed. no sign that I could see...Pile of baskets etc in front to make it clear the doors were shut
  5. I recommend Meetup.com too, to expand your horizons and make new friends
  6. Yes, came here looking to post a link if it wasn't done already! Voted for DH of course, I really like the work the volunteers have done... Wonder if something similar could be done at ED? I'd be willing to play a part..
  7. MEETUP.COM had been invaluable for me getting to new places and meeting folk
  8. Meat is murder was a big one in my day
  9. I feel the same about the short ED trains!
  10. Harry Belafonte. 96 years old. ps there must be a word for thinking someone was dead already, surely? Because alas I did.
  11. I got mine a couple of months ago. It's really hard to find although it was mentioned in a leaflet drop from the council that I assume every household received? UPDATED TO SAY THE WINTER FUND IS CLOSED THE NEW 2023 FUND WILL REOPEN SOON. ASSUMONG THIS IS WHERE IT CAME FROM
  12. I've got Advocate, from the vets. Expensive but shop around. Found it improved his skin condition as I don't think he gets fleas (indoor puss)
  13. Southwark are giving residents a one off payment of £100 and everyone I ask has never heard of it! I don't have the link anymore, but council website/cost of living crisis is probably where it is. I answered a few questions, not many and received a letter to take to the Post Office. £100 cash payment
  14. That's really poor on the side of the Housing Assc. I can't emphasise enough, keep a diary. And record any noise nuisance if you can. HA should be able to signpost you to mediation, if you feel safe doing that.
  15. Dry cleaner next to the Post Office Lordship Lane has done a couple of good jobs for me
  16. Nigel Lawson former chancellor
  17. A new one is being installed, I asked the builders! Paid for by Sainsbury's
  18. Charities can use 'rag' type items as long as you tell them. They are given money by weight
  19. Phyllida Barlow, brilliant artist/sculptor.
  20. Steve Mackey from Pulp, (guitarist) dead at 56
  21. If you're still suffering after surgery hours today, remember SELDOC is operating. I find it more helpful to be honest
