1) a general hint: Never use the windscreen wipers when someone has thrown eggs on your windscreen. It will make things worse. 2) when I read the title I thought maybe they had actually thrown the well known Motorcycle cleaner GUNK on your car, in which case it would have been a hint to clean your dirty car, but this was not the case so I am sorry this happened.

OK I just saw the answer to my question in the other thread.

And me. And it was not about the money, it is helping to contribute towards knowledge and information about how our brains work and to be part of a "control group". Always useful to try and help. The money was a bonus. She is a very intelligent kind patient person.

I think theft is wrong. However, in these days with sanctioned benefits and dying people being declared fit for work, theft is inevitable and it is the only way some people can survive. However, this was a group of young men, so it was malicious. How can this be stopped? People who want to be parents have to go to parenting classes and remain responsible for their kids. However, those same people may not be capable, or suffering depression, or any number of issues. There's never any easy answer. But theft is still wrong. HOLY CR@P am I writing on the correct thread still? All you children who are arguing about the pros and cons of the forum should take it to the ABOUT THE FORUM section.

Oh come on, PLEASE try harder than that to sound passive aggressive. "Can't believe no ones got the answer to this very simple puzzle"

What's the singular of Genuis? Or is Genui plural? in which case the superfluous 's' is worth minus 2.

I can spell "Genius".

You're welcome! I get a weekly and daily email alert to things happening in London, from TheLondonist and IanVisits.

Yeah I saw you in your Shard apartment thinking no-one was watching.....

Thanks folks!

Grander scale with Shard on right. Never did work out how to put the photo in the picture instead of the link!

Hi all, hope you like these. Taken from my 3rd floor balcony yesterday (flypast) and today very early (balloons over London). They set off from Battersea Park, though there were so many we couldn't figure out how there would have been room for all of them! Another photo follows this.

Which begs the questions: 1) Were you speeding 2) Did you go on the red light? Either way Appeal and show them the photo from the location. Let us know what happens.

According to the signpost as you come south from Peckham, after taking the left fork where the 343/78/P12s go, and Peckham Rye Park is in front of you at the lights, where you can turn left for Nunhead and Right (where the 37 goes) for East Dulwich - according to the signpost there IS NO road straight ahead (to Brockley/Honor Oak Crematorium). Only left or right. However, I can not quite make out where the OP was describing. Certainly it is badly signposted around all those junctions, but clearly signposted that when travelling south towards Peckham Rye where you've taken the right fork (where the 63/363/12/197 go) that you can only go straight ahead towards Forest Hill Road, and not left or right.

Humdinger that was outrageous. She works in a shop. Doing her best to survive in the big city. Stop lumping all ED / SE22 people as all the same. They are all different trying to make a difference and get on with their lives. As for me, well personally I am delighted the 343 will be extended to Aldgate, but I don't need it for work and am sorry that so many of you are being disadvantaged as you try to get to work and that it is going to be that bit harder. The other day I was being taken to a job from the airport in a limo (long story - wasn't even for a funeral! - and the limo driver said he is actually a paramedic and does the limo driving work to top up his pay, as he wants to try and remain in central London as long as he can. Life's not easy for so many people. You don't know their struggles. They don't need your anger.

Is theft still a crime? Why are we all so upset that this woman told us about it? I don't care that she did so in a way that may have upset you all. She recorded it and doubtlessly told the police and showed them. And yes, MLE is a 'thing'.

PLEASE PLEASE try and attend local safer neighbourhood teams at which your local police will attend. Then discover what they DO do. Who they DO catch. And tell them of your concerns. Seriously, they are trying hard and their budgets are cut. Google Met Police SNT and find the details of your local SNT meetings. They happen every two months or so.

I read it and I wear hard gas permeable lenses. I keep mine very clean and they last a year or more. Yes I get my eyes checked regularly and have done this since 1978!

I must be really lucky here. My friends love my husband and his friends love me. And I would not DREAM of telling him who or when he could see and he wouldn't dare tell me either. But a great example of how our friendships have worked is as follows. I recommended a Humanist Wedding Celebrant to my husband's friend for his son's marriage in Wales. Me and hubby were unable to go. Two days after, husband's friend calls and I answer, and he tells me how beautiful the wedding was, and this man cries down the phone at me with happy tears. Cries. I pass the call on to husband who has not heard any of my side of the conversation. I hear my husband saying, "So how was it? ... Oh that's great! .... Oh really? ... well done ... 1950s? I didn't think there were any of those around! I had one of those. Yeah sold it a few years ago. What size engine? No, the two stroke....." Bikes. That's all he and his mate talk about. His mate cries down the phone at me and after a few words to husband they're talking motorcycles. Cracks me up. To answer the opening poster, if you want to keep your mates, then keep your mates! If she doesn't like them that's one thing, but to make you stop seeing them? Buh Bye!

They're expensive, but I bought me these. They are made from moulds taken from yours ears. It's weird having the moulds taken, and before that the specialist took a little wax out my ears to make for a better fittings. I had motorcycle earplugs, and they really are excellent. Then I had another pair made for listening to music / phone, which is the best quality I have ever known. But for great noise cancelling made to measure fitted earplugs, I would highly recommend: https://www.ultimateear.com/products/squidgy

Mallard Ducklings are there. And getting bigger each day. They love the spinach I give them, too.

Sorry this happened to you but well done for the photos. I hope the police were grateful.

We live on the other side of the park from the festival. It's Monday evening as I type. It's REALLY noisy even behind closed double glazed windows. We attended meetings about this and the organisers said they would lift the speakers and aim them down. Methinks the sound is bouncing right out again! Anyway, personally I think a park in a residential area such as this, with housing so close to anywhere that the festival might be based, is inappropriate. But it is happening. Please email [email protected] if you think it is wonderful or too darn noisy. They need to have feedback. (Edited to give a better email address)

See?? the Council ARE doing something about crime; they're cutting down trees so crims can't hide behind them.
