Ah! A layby would be a good idea, to be able to drop people off at the station - is that what it would be for? It's always a pain having to try to stop near the station (illegally I guess) and shove people/luggage out of the car as quickly as possible so as not to hold up traffic .....

Or is it the shopping experience itself that you find better in Waitrose than anywhere else?? And if so, why? I'm genuinely interested :)

There's another recent thread about this on the forum somewhere .....

I suspect Southwark Council's financial priorities at the moment do not include employing Town Centre Managers if they don't already have them, but hey I could be wrong :)

And you'd like to see all those independent shops put out of business, with all the personal misery that entails, so that a large company can open yet another supermarket? If local people did not want what they are selling, the little shops would not still be here, regardless of what you may think of them :)

Happy New Year from me too. :)

Very sorry to hear this. Alan M, that's a lovely quote from The Prophet.

You have to wonder (well, I do) why Starryeyes felt the need to register and post on this forum solely it seems to have a go at Dr Gupta and the DMC - and to say things which almost certainly are not true.

I believe there used to be a man who lived in Southwark Park (I think it was Southwark Park) for years in some sort of make-shift accommodation in an out-of-the-way spot, but he eventually got chucked out :-S

I saw Dr Gupta just last week. I didn't ask for a particular GP, he just happened to be the GP I saw when I went. Starryeyes, what on earth are you talking about, "weeks of trying to get an appointment"? You can almost always get an appointment at DMC the same day if you go first thing in the morning. And if you can't get there first thing, you can certainly get an appointment quite soon.

We saw this tarp quite a while ago, must have been November, didn't think anything of it at the time.

Put in food/plant material recycling bin? Or, in bin bag in non-recyclable bin? Or, phone local vet and ask if they have disposal service?

Aliens. East Dulwich equivalent of corn circles. :))

Puzzled's post was a reference to what has happened at St Thomas More Hall this year.

Well I went, walking very slowly so as not to wreck my unfitness strategy, but what did I see on the blackboard? Nothing but a list of booze - tempting as three Speckled Hens for a fiver were, surely this is not what I was supposed to be looking for? Did I miss it? (quite likely :-$ )

Thanks Minkey. But walking down to Morrisons would affect my Get Very Unfit Over Christmas campaign :) So would eating fish, come to think of it :)

Best oven cleaner? Somebody else :))

Oh alright then ..... I'll force myself away from my chair for ten minutes .....
