As you later said that these leaflets were put through letterboxes, how do you know it was the Labour Party which put them on trees and in bus shelters? It could have been anybody who wanted to publicise more widely what was in the leaflets. I am going to a local Labour Party meeting tonight. I will make enquiries.

Crikey. You really are bored, aren't you :)) This is quite an interesting thread, if you wanted to join in the on topic discussion :))

Presume they're not the only 2 So you don't actually know what the flyer is about or how many have been put at bus stops or trees.

What leaflets are these, and which bus shelters are they in?

Upstairs at The Old Nun's Head?

I got an email that said anyone could apply for free trees, which were a Rowan and a wild Cherry, and if you got them and only wanted one, you could give the other one to a friend!

I chain drink tea, so it's a pot and a cosy for me :))

I drink PG Tips. It's the only breakfast-type tea I like. It never occurred to me until recently that their tea bags might contain plastic. I've been putting them in my compost bin for years :( Looking at their website, it seems that they are still "moving to" fully biodegradable tea bags. So maybe I will move to loose PG Tips. Time to get a tea pot and knit a tea cosy :)) ETA: I've just looked up the price. ?2 for 250g in Tesco :)

I would have suggested The Ivy House in Nunhead, which is very child friendly and runs various children's things in its ballroom. However they often have live music in the ballroom on Sunday afternoons, though I don't know if they are at the moment. Might be worth trying? It's a great room and would easily hold the numbers you say. https://www.ivyhousenunhead.com/ 020 7277 8233 ETA: To forestall accusations of a vested interest, it's London's first community owned pub and I have community shares in it :)

Happy to be proved wrong, but I've never known clothes moths to be attracted to light?

I can't help, but I wonder if a chiropractor might be able to advise (both on the back pain and the best mattress for you?) Daniel at the Dulwich Chiropractic Clinic in Crystal Palace Road is excellent, and has many recommendations on here. http://www.dulwichchiropractic.co.uk/ I hope your back improves, back pain is horrible.

Damn, I would have loved to have seen that!

Oh no, hope they haven't been eaten by the heron :( But last time I saw them they were quite large, so hopefully too large for the heron :)

I'm using their Instant Ink - they monitor your ink levels online and post you ink before your cartridges run out. You pay by page rather than the amount of ink, so whether this would be good for you would depend on the sort of stuff you printed, I guess. But if your printer is old it may not support Instant Ink? You could ask/complain via the Facebook Messenger I used - they seem very helpful?
