  1. Great! I love (most of) our ED murals. Except the one on the side of what is now The Lordship ......

  4. You can check when the next bus is due and where it is now on apps like buscountdown. I use it for the P13. And yes, you can hardly blame the bus company for delays outwith their control.

Depending on the type of damage to the car, you can sometimes still keep it (and hence insure it) even if it is written off and you are given the cash value. It is sometimes cheaper for insurers to do that than to pay to get the car repaired. You can then pay to repair it yourself. ETA: obviously you would only do that if you could get it repaired more cheaply than the money you got for the car when it was written off, or at least for the same amount (assuming you wanted to keep the car).
  7. Phone the Financial Ombudsman? Their office was incredibly helpful when I phoned them. https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/ It sounds very stressful, as well as unfair. Good luck!
  8. womanofdulwich Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Care to share the oil free recipe Sue? It's this one: https://www.cearaskitchen.com/fluffy-oil-free-hummus/ I use a can of chickpeas and just shove all the liquid (aquafaba) in. I don't measure it. I use half the amount of chilli powder she does, and sometimes I add a quarter teaspoon of turmeric (for health not taste reasons). I only use one clove of garlic, but obviously it depends on the size of the clove and the strength of the garlic. I make it in a (tallish) measuring jug with my stick blender on a speed of 6 then turbo. The first time I used my food processor, but with the stick blender there is less washing up :) I've tried other hummus recipes and I really don't miss the oil when I make it this way.

In that case the chemist mentioned by Peckhamgatecrasher above may still have a CCTV record, depending on how far back the record goes? Really glad your husband and child are OK, it must have been awful. I hope the driver is caught.

I like your thinking, KK! Especially the tracking device! Genius! (Well, depending how much they cost ....._
  11. I make my own. I have a great recipe which doesn't use any oil. It takes about two minutes (with a jug and a stick blender) and tastes much nicer than the stuff you buy in supermarkets. One batch lasts me several days :)

  13. I can highly recommend Russell Perring. 07852 972052. Very competent, reliable and reasonably priced. He has lots of recommendations on here if you do a search.

I hope you have complained about these, particularly the last two? Royal Mail can't do anything about stuff like this unless people tell them. And probably better to complain centrally rather than directly to the delivery office, so that you can be sure that there's a record of it. https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/307/~/im-a-personal-customer%2C-how-do-i-make-a-complaint%3F The more people who complain about apparent theft or attempted theft by Royal Mail employees, the more Royal Mail can look at patterns, collect evidence and pin point who is probably responsible. They can then set traps (or they used to, I don't know if they still do).
  16. Do they tell you if they are cooking in dripping, or do they just look at you and class you as an ancient person? What if you are a vegetarian? ETA: It would never occur to me to ask. I just assumed all fish and chips were cooked in oil. Is there a big notice warning people about this?
  17. There are three (I think) zebra crossings at that roundabout. Which one are we talking about? I had assumed it was the one on Lordship Lane, but am not sure now.

She has also told someone on another thread (a regular poster on here) that they are "either really stupid or trolling".

It is getting food delivered (sorry but that's part of modern life) but more to the point, people keeping their engines running, which should be made illegal.

  22. Ganapati has some good veggie options - we've just ordered a couple via Deliveroo. Only a few actually vegan, but likely to be more interesting than the Lordship Lane offerings, and only a tad more expensive. I'm not strictly vegan anyway. The menu you can download via this page is the current one - they change it quite frequently I think: http://www.ganapatitakeaway.com/ If you want to eat in, it's this page: http://www.ganapatirestaurant.com/ Haven't been there for ages, but now wondering why :) Had in mind that it was expensive, but Memsaab seem to have put their prices up, so it's now comparable. We used to mostly go to and have takeaways from Surma, but sadly it's closed. ETA: If you are a meat eater, their chicken is free range, which I'm pretty sure isn't the case at other local Indian restaurants, though I stand to be corrected.

I realise you've just googled Science Fiction and extracted that from a much longer definition, but have you actually read the book?
