  1. Are you confusing fibre with cable? Or am I? Because I deffo had fibre with Plusnet. https://www.plus.net/home-broadband/fibre/ ETA: sorry, hadn't properly read your post.

I have found all that palaver completely unnecessary! Plus if you freeze a whole loaf, you then have to eat the whole lot at once after defrosting. If you freeze in slices, you can defrost one or two slices at a time. But to do that you either have to first open freeze the slices, or else separate them with something like easy-leave sheets, otherwise they will all stick together.

  7. Plusnet also provide fibre in the area. I thought every provider did these days, tbh.

  9. Crikey, glad I didn't come across that in my house :))

This was certainly discussed at great length at the time, and if memory serves was raised with Royal Mail by Helen Hayes (our MP) - who also turned out for the protest, which the vast majority of residents did not. By all means raise it again with her, but she really did bend over backwards at the time to oppose this move, with very little practical support from most of her constituents potentially affected. How many people even wrote to Royal Mail about it at the time when there was still a chance to influence the decision? Various options for locally picking up parcels were suggested previously, but I have no idea how feasible they were. I believe it was Helen who suggested a vacant site on one of the small industrial estates round here. Possibly the one near Barry Road.
  11. Isn't this just what we used to call filter coffee?

I don't have a tablet, but I used to use one of those stick things on my mobile until my daughter unkindly laughed at me. I found that once I got used to it, using my ancient huge fingers on the tiny keyboard was actually quite easy :))

    Bread

    Dry skimmed milk is sold in Tesco as well as Sainsbury's and the Co-Op. Don't know if other supermarkets also have their own branded milk. It's probably all the same as Marvel anyway, only cheaper! And yes, I buy sourdough bread and then slice (if it isn't ready sliced) and freeze it. If you open freeze it on a tray, you can then easily shove it into a bag and take out one slice at a time, or however many slices you want.

Wasn't meaning to criticise, hope you didn't think I was, I just didn't want to repeat the information on here. We too have very fond memories of John, and will continue to support Chener books.
  15. S/he has posted this survey on two other sections (at least) in this forum.

  19. I can't advise on the specific issue, but I suggest you speak directly to an insurance broker, or possibly directly to insurance companies rather than filling in a list of questions online. Though if you get a minion who just goes through the same list of questions, that will probably be as bad as trying to do it online ........ ETA: Or whoever did your underpinning may be able to advise, or possibly put you in contact with other people who have had the same thing done for the same reason? Obviously (or at least I imagine that) the reason for the question is because insurance companies assume that any underpinning is done as a result of subsidence.
  20. Not sure how you could interpret my posts as looking for information on making a spiral staircase, but thanks anyway! My issue was sorted long ago and I now have no door at all to the understairs area, and a chest freezer there plus other stuff :)
  21. In my experience some insurance companies lump every type of movement together under subsidence. Others don't. You may need to go through a broker?

You can get mugged anywhere, it's bad luck but it doesn't mean everybody should always avoid that area forever.

  24. FFS. This is London. I walk alone late at night all round here. It's fine. As with anywhere at night, or indeed during the day, you have to be aware of what's going on around you. If you don't want to do that, go and live in the middle of nowhere, or else live in London and never venture out of your house. FFS. Again :)) ETA: In case it's not obvious, this is in answer to alarmist posts on here ....
  25. I don't know if any of them still remain divided into two flats, but the houses at the top end of Upland Road have big gardens.
