But QuestionAir had a notice on it saying it was being refurbished?

Of course as soon as I posted the above, it stopped, having been barking very loudly for ages .....

Does anybody know in which house a barking dog in the North Cross Road/Crystal Palace Road area lives? The noise (frequent, and particularly bad today) seems to be coming from a garden in Crystal Palace Road between The Great Exhibition and The Actress, but towards The Actress end. However sound is a strange thing in the way it travels, so I could be wrong. With all my windows closed, I can hear it in every room of my house. The dog barks at various times of the day and night, and seems to have arrived a few months back.

Sorry if I'm being dim, but have I understood this correctly? You and your neighbour live on a road with a CPZ, which means that people who don't live on your road can't park there, as the CPZ presumably was introduced to ensure that residents (including you and your neighbour) are able to park in their own road. But you don't want to make the effort to apply for the permit which would enable you to park in your own road. So you both park on CPR "pretty much daily and nightly", thus taking up spaces which people who live on CPR could otherwise use. Those people probably include parents with small children having to carry the children and all their paraphernalia from their car to their house; people with heavy things which they find it hard to carry a long way; people with mobility problems which aren't severe enough to qualify for a disabled parking space; people having to make several trips to and from their car with luggage, shopping etc.. Do you not find something a bit wrong with that? Especially given that the residents of CPR are not able to park in your road. To be clear: I am not suggesting that only people who live in CPR should park there. I am suggesting that to park there night and day when you could quite easily park in your own road with a small amount of effort on your part is ..... well, you decide. Or is there something I've missed here?

Crikey those reviews are bad. The manager keeps responding that things will improve, but these are ongoing issues, aren't they? Do they not carry out any staff training at all?

Why do M&S need another shop so close to the existing one??

The price went up from ?10 to ?2000 and she paid it???? She paid ?2000 in advance for someone to fix guttering????

Over ?200??? Seriously, check out Asda next time. My partner got decent thin lensed varifocals for under ?50.

Oops sorry brain malfunction

I have a dual fuel radiator/towel rail which I originally got to dry towels when the main heating wasn't on. I've only used the electric option about twice, but it could be a cheaper solution than underfloor heating?

Oh FFS

Sexist as well, then. Great.

I find it quite amusing that they give the calories in each dish so precisely. How can they possibly be sure that every dish of pork belly is exactly 503kcal?! :)) http://www.therealgreek.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/TRG119-Main-Menu-PG-1.pdf It all looks very yummy, and I got quite excited about the very reasonable prices until I noticed that they are recommending "three or four mezes per person", and then you have to add salad etc ...... Oh well .....

There is an article about the existing ED WI in the latest issue of the Dulwich Diverter :)

She has a really strong prescription, and they do thin lenses included in the price. At least I think that's why she went there. She used to travel from London to Watford to get her Asda specs, before this branch opened! They don't have a vast range, but I found some I liked and I'm quite fussy :)

RPC, sorry about your glasses. Asda opticians do varifocals at really good prices, all in. My OH and I both got some recently. There's one on the Isle of Dogs right next to Mudchute Farm. Lovely staff, too.

The noise team at Southwark and the hours they work were reduced a few years back due to council cutbacks, I think.

So Kibris, you are calling someone who has been a member on here for years and found someone's behaviour sufficiently concerning to call the police a liar? I don't find that kind of behaviour in any way amusing either.

There was a post on here a while ago saying someone was looking for shoes in bins. Weird. Wonder how often she finds any?!

Oh dear :( ETA: How was he acting oddly?

But there was a brief flash of light before (or possibly after, I can't remember now) each one, which was weird. And they weren't very close together. I thought it was thunder/lightning at first. I looked out of the window but couldn't see any sign of fireworks.
