This wasn't a party, it wasn't at the weekend, they had their windows wide open and it was just anti-social. It was so loud they couldn't even hear their own doorbell :)

If the foxes are such a massive problem for you, and personally I love having foxes in my garden, why don't you report it to the council and let them deal with it?

Mapquest does much the same thing, as do other sites. They don't necessarily go the way you want to go though :))

pommie Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > you can ring environmental health and they can > come out to check the noise level/time etc xxxxxx And then, as happened to me recently, when I got bloody annoyed with hearing Queen and Radio GaGa for about the zillionth time through my closed windows from a house halfway down the street, when I was sitting quietly in my living room trying to read the paper,I went and rang the relevant doorbell and because the music was blaring out so loudly all down the street they couldn't hear the doorbell. So I phoned Southwark Noise Control, who eventually turned up (nearly an hour later), came into my house and said it wasn't loud enough to cause a nuisance. Even though I could hear every bloody word. Through a closed window. So I said what about all the people living nearer, and they said tough, irrelevant, those people would have to make a complaint themselves. So I said but if you go into the street you will find that you can hear this noise from one end of the street to the other, as you must have heard when you got out of your car, and they said tough, irrelevant, we have to hear it from inside the house of the person who has complained. End of. Edited to say: This was on a weekday evening. I have no problem with one-off parties on weekend nights.

Brilliant! Thanks EDKiwi :)

Yes, I go to Oxford via Victoria on weekdays, all the places you mention are out of the congestion zone provided you stick to the correct route. Just not sure how to get to Camden from the Edgware Road :-$ and then from there to Harringey :-$ Will consult a map - thanks!

I need to drive to Harringay (in Haringey :) ) tomorrow during the day. Looking at a map, seems like I could do Elephant, New Kent Road, over Tower Bridge, up Commercial Street, Great Eastern Street, City Road then Upper Street. Then easy from there. Are there any traps like one-way-systems on this route which might take me into the congestion zone by mistake?

Dulwich Medical Centre, Crystal Palace Road.

Get a 176 night bus to Goose Green and then walk the rest of the way?

OK .... 343 47 If they've gone just stick a pin in your list :))

So can we have a list of the numbers that have already gone, otherwise I could be here all night trying numbers and getting them turned down :))

Christ, I read that too, I never realised you could get electrocuted via a TV aerial. Thank God I never tried to go on the roof and move mine :-S

RTFP (that's Read the F-ing Post :)) )

Am I too late? Have people been sending you numbers by PM? Can I have 3 and/or 13, or have they gone? I'll make a donation anyway. xx ETA: That's a bit bizarre, I tried to make a donation on the hospice site but having filled in all my details, all I got was a list of their bank details - wouldn't they be better setting up a Paypal account or something? And they say they can only deal with specific amounts on the website - yet they've left it to me to send the money via my bank? So why the specific amounts? Am I being even more thick than usual? :-$

How very annoying - I never looked at this thread before because I thought it was yet another W**f joke and life was too short. Now I find it was an actual lottery, and for good causes. :-$

Just want to add my belated thanks, I posted on the other Uplands thread by mistake, forgot about this one :) The pizza was great and I was delighted to find a lager I hadn't tried before which actually tasted of something - now will be in this week to try the Broadside (thanks so much for having Broadside, Scott!!) Also delighted to discover a fellow melodeon player wannabe who lives in my road :)) :)-D

You could try (as a temporary measure to encourage the cat to go - and then hopefully continue to go - elsewhere) putting loads of bramble stems over your bed, or something else prickly. I used to do this along a wall to keep cats off, and it seemed to work :)
