What is this Drone Show? Drones are not allowed to fly around willy nilly are they? It’s an intrusion of privacy. I had to report one flying over my back garden and surrounding gardens a couple of years ago but the Police fobbed me off.

That was my question about Ed Davey and has he lost the plot? Are you a Lib Dem supporter? What do you think about his speech?

I wasn’t asking if anyone would vote Reform? But as you’ve brought it up. It was a very theatrical speech as usual by Ed Davey. Why he mentioned Nigel Farage’s name 38 times but Keir Starmer’s name just once in his once in a while chance to push his party’s plans for the future I don’t know. There was nothing laid out by this man in the plan for the future and his general election grab for 2029?

Just started a new thread but struggling to read your response Malumbu?

After his disastrous speech today in Bournemouth is Ed Davey starting to lose the plot? Genuinely wondering why anyone would vote for the Lib Dem’s?

Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.

Not me!

The OP might have found the ‘Creative Trump’ protests entertaining but I found them very disrespectful to our late and great Queen Elizabeth who was interred at Windsor Castle 3 years ago. They would have had more impact on projecting the images at Chequers today.

Childish behaviour by the aforesaid protesters!

Private schools are being lambasted by this Labour government so you might need to think about the state secondary schools in the area and there’s a good few that are on a par.

He’s got to go. Especially after he was in contact with Epstein after Epstein had been found out regarding his perverted crimes. And the photo of Peter in his fluffy white dressing gown and Epstein on a patio somewhere?

I would phone ahead to check whether they are accepting donations. I’ve been in the shop a couple of times over the past few years and seen people turned away with book donations. There are a few parking spaces outside the row of shops there and it’s sometimes pot luck but I’ve usually parked ok. Let us know how it goes Sue. l

St Christopher’s had a new charity shop opened up a little while ago, taking over the old music shop in West Dulwich. I went up just after they opened and couldn’t believe the prices!

Angela Rayner had this country at her feet but as soon as I saw that photo of her lounging about in the kayak off her new seaside home, vaping and drinking!

And? I was replying to the OP’s query.

Unfortunately Southwark do not recognise Bank Holidays in their traffic schemes.

Back to the topic of flag flying and ‘far right groups’ as you’ve said in your original post. Where are Starmer and Rayner? One is on holiday and the other is floating about in a kayak having a vape.

Well I think it was very patronising Sue! Is nobody allowed to comment on something they see whilst going about their usual business? It was very upsetting to see the school boundaries being ripped apart.

Turned right from Lordship Lane today onto Townley Road (before 3pm as you’re allowed to do whilst driving a car)! but was met by another set of temporary traffic lights halfway along. Thames water have finished doing a big job there but now looks like another company are on site and widening some of the pavement for some reason. Can’t see why as it’s on the side where the private coaches park up during the term time and the pavement has been fine for many years. Only thing I can think of is that the private school want another crossing?

Thought the Poundland chain had been saved but this branch seems to have come a cropper just a while after it opened and is now definitely closing. A hive of activity today as I went past with everything stripped out.

Went past Dog Kennel Hill school (now had a name change for this September) this morning and the hedges and bushes that were previously on the main road and all around were being totally annihilated ! 3/4 or more people with chainsaws etc. Felt so sad for the wildlife within.
