Churned up mess?

Surely there must be some software which can stop this kind of spamming?

Eh?

Stag beetle? Ooops sorry hadn't seen other posts.

Bloody hell, what have they done to the Seven Stars then?? I haven't been there for while, but it was one of my favourite pubs of all time :(

Or you could try this: Is Japanese knotweed driving you wild? Don't curse it ? cook it https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/shortcuts/2018/may/30/is-japanese-knotweed-driving-you-wild-dont-curse-it-cook-it

Thrushes do. They hammer them on rocks to break the shell, so they can get the snail out. I've seen one do it (not in London). Don't think blackbirds do that though.

It's the content of your posts, constantly dissing the people who live in East Dulwich. And pretending you don't know exactly what you are doing. It ceased to be amusing long ago, except perhaps to people new to the forum who haven't seen it all before.

They have done a really good job on the refurbishment, bringing the place up to date without wrecking original features. It is much nicer than it was before, in my opinion. It may well deserve its award. I just want to know who voted, and what the criteria were. Fullers is a hell of a lot better ale than Youngs, in my opinion. I haven't eaten at the Half Moon, though the restaurant part looks lovely, but the food could hardly be worse than you get in Youngs' pubs (or at the Dog) :))

No, but please can you train it to eat lily beetles and asparagus beetles too :))

I can't understand how the child clung on for so long. Brilliant outcome, as Ilona says, and I hope the child's father is suitably punished. ETA: Don't think he was a toddler, apparently he was four. Child not father, obvs.

No

Sorry. Duplicate post.

Surely it's just common decency if you spill paint in a public place to clear it up?

Planes have flown (what appeared to be) straight over my house for years. Today they seem to be flying somewhere to the North. I can still hear them, but not nearly so loudly. Is this my imagination?

I would be devastated if my beloved Birkies got covered in paint :(
