The views she has are too challenging to ignore! Doubt whether she's a rook trainer... 💪🙅🏻👩🏻‍💻

Love that suggestion of taping 2 cds to your eyes as it scares them!

Brilliant - but how did you manage to get my RADA audition tape!

Interesting - but scary!

In my Road! Near the children's playground in EDR.

Yesterday morning when walking back from yoga around 7.45am, two massive rooks swooped down from nowhere and attacked my head and neck. It was terrifying as at first I thought I was being mugged. My neighbour heard me scream and came out to help. She said her elderly mother had the same thing happen the day before. I've never heard of birds attacking people before but others have since said that they have been known to do do this when nesting. There was a whole row of them sitting along the roofs and chimneys all squawking - very scary - know how Tippi Hedren felt! I've reported it to Southwark Environment as I couldn't think who else to go through.

You can't possibly know this for sure - you are speculating.

Are you suggesting locals should ignore this stuff? They clearly have had problems with planning their opening but they haven't really engaged with their future customers and taken them with them. There is so much choice (a good thing surely) that new businesses have to really engage with locals.

This doesn't put the rest of the threads to shame. It's perfectly possible to have many different topics running at the same time on a variety of subjects. None of them cancel the others out.

Maybe get out more, read real journalism and worry a bit.

It's the present occupant of the role we are all demonstrating against today. Any American President should be invited though disagree, like Jeremy Corbyn, with caving into his demand of full state visit. He is here mainly to put his already being negotiated trade demands on the table, inc NHS, agriculture etc, and to meet with likely future Leaders/PM to make sure these happen in the way he expects. We rightly should all be very afraid of how this will change people's lives and the lowering of food safety standards and employment rights. If you are not worried by this nor demonstrating then perhaps ask yourself why.

Madness. Love the way you think calling someone a politician is an insult. Very transparent.

Hi again VB Yes you are right - the anti Trump march tomorrow - perhaps I'll bump into you there? As I said to you before, apart from the Trump supporting/border line racism/sweet porn, my main objection to you is your focus on age - you've clearly decided I'm old - goodness knows what that is in VB land? I'm clearly a "far lefty" too - whatever that is - sounds very 70s - who's showing their age now... Border line racist - re-read your own rare non sweet-related post and think on. Don't think you're at risk of putting anyone on here in "their place" - wherever that is. Aah - too much sugar maybe? Bet your sweet shoppe manager is enjoying all the negative publicity you're generating for his shoppe.

Not sure anything you say is worth getting knicker twisted about but your posts (when not about Trump and border line racist) on the sweet shoppe are definitely way over the top.

Well that's the bit that's missing of course. It just needs someone from Southwark to let people know what the reason for the delay is and what the plan is.

I like others on here subscribed to the new process to have garden waste removed, yes, but also into a new system necessitating new bins, stickers, sharing with neighbours, new collection system etc. and it hadn't fully been implemented. Like others I am considering withdrawing and signing up when they are ready to roll it out fully. Unlike you I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories, particularly on such a First World issue, and think it's more cock up than a "trust" issue. Just an opportunity to rant about a Labour Council on your part again.

VB Think you are confusing things that Trump has said and actual truth/reality. Your second post above is very dodgy.

No haven't received anything yet given the scheme was originally supposed to start on 1 June. I've paid but no service and no official notifications from Southwark explaining this. I'm thinking, like others on here, of applying for a credit card refund until we hear if the scheme is still planned.

You appear to be a Trump supporter and notice the way you slip in your view on transgender and the military. Also your use of the word "filthy". All round depressing.

It's closed - deal with it.
