Which one is that?

Good chips should be crispy outside and soft inside, in my opinion. Sadly, fresh and tasty is not enough where chips are concerned!

I carry all mine through to the kitchen myself. This has got a lot more difficult since they stopped using bags! I used to pay the 40p for the bags and then re-use them for rubbish etc.. I usually use Tesco now. I stopped using Sainsbury's after they left something I needed urgently on the van, and despite my phoning them very soon after the driver had left my house, they refused to deliver it.

I moved to Elm Lodge, but I do have a number of concerns about it which I don't want to post on here. As a result, I was going to move back to DMC, but I don't know if the highly recommended GP at DMC is still on sick leave?

Mutt. I don't know anything about that artist's reputation or past works, I just really dislike that mural. I think the unlamented and short-lived Patch might have commissioned it? Surely the whole point of many of the local murals are that they are based on pictures from Dulwich Picture Gallery? Because - we are in Dulwich! I think that was a brilliant idea. They are so varied, too. I don't see why you would describe them as "pompous"?

It will also cause you and your kids great harm if you get euphorbia sap on your skin, especially if you then get sunlight on it. Most massive blister I have ever had in my life :(

Have you reported it?

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

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).

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!

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 ....._

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 :)
