I've run before sunrise (elderly woman wearing thick unflattering , but warm, gear.) I haven't noticed this guy. Is the earlier daylight improving things?

A friend has taken some to a dementia group and I took some to Sense this morning

I've got about 25 jigsaws 250 to 500 pieces of wildlife and nature. They were bought for a learning disabled adult so I had education in mind. Most are thick cardboard but about half a dozen are wood. They are all complete. Anyone think of a local charity shop which would like them?

Problem with BT installing fibre optic cable
Sally Eva replied to mayfly's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I think part of the problem is that BT has all its work done by Openreach which is a separate company. One guy from BT explained to me that he had no special connection with OR and could only deal with their call centre in India which was as useful as we all know such call centres to be. so the BT staff whom you talk to have no influence on the work. -

Ring them up. They assessed the household on the phone, agreed that we would almost certainly save money and activated it.

Lidl Peckham parking fine - advice please
Sally Eva replied to EleanorT's topic in Roads & Transport

I use Firefox and Opera and I don't get ads in either. I haven't installed any adblockers. Probably in settings. I get asked about cookies in both and they are easy to reuse and delete I don't use Chrome or google search.

As I think Colville might agree, it's hard to overemphasise the level of chaos. My complaint line went to BT and was fine. The problem was that he had to get info from OR and his only contact was OR customer service which was the normal level of customer service you find everywhere ie didn't answer the phone, didn't give any sort of sensible answer when they did etc. And they were one company, OR was BT's only supplier. "Our computer systems don't talk to one another" the BT guy said, by way of extenuation. Try Ofcom

I had a choice and decided to give up my landline and rely on mobile. I'm 71. Key to this choice was learning that in a power cut a digital landline would not work. I did change my internet to BT. That was fully installed by a very nice Open Reach engineer who plugged it all together. The whole experience was a lesson in chaos (BT/Openreach) and frustration (me). But the end product was good. The guys who did the work were charming and delightful, fully trustable to help plug in the digital ohones,

Power of attorney is straightforward to do oneself. For a will consider Anthony Gold. As executors, I second Malumbu. Choose sensible relatives considerably younger than yourself. If you haven't got any, consider a solicitor

Lloyds Pharmacy North Cross Road is closing
Sally Eva replied to Lynne's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
It sounds like a corporate decision rather than anything pharmaceutical. Nunhead shops include two pharmacies in a brief shopping street both flourishing. The staff at Lloyds may have been demoralised if the shutdown was happening however hard they worked. -
Who do you work for?
