Of course I read it and completed the survey before I posted it in here! Why would I not?! And thanks to those above who supported my reasons for posting it in ED section.

We're a Gang????

I've seen a horse fly! (3mins 40seconds in!)

Some people just have no sense of humour.

Dammit, they put it in the lounge!

This is for anyone to fill in but please read the info first before clicking the questionnaire within. It is relevant to our local police situation so don't put it in the lounge!

Non dairy ice cream. Just not right! We need certainly an Italian type specialist ice cream parlour in Lordship Lane, certainly!

I love how this has 400 views. Bought some very fine such product from Tescos the other day for my parents. Sorry, but there you are. I am not being paid to advertise!

I second Huggers' route.

We just got our service charges; they're about the same. 2 bedroomed flat in a block on other side of the park.

They don't know they're living like kings. It's a comparison only us humans can make. It's still cruel to waste their lives like this.

So two more horses died. I find this horse racing lark as unsavoury as fox hunting.

It's wonderful being Atheist, no such made up rules! ;)

Well I fancy chocolate. AND THE CHOCOLATYE FESTIVAL IS ON TODAY AND THIS WEEKEND at the South Bank! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I shall be sooooo high, no need for drugs.

Post has yet to arrive but above post makes me worry tremendously!

" I'm partial to anything but vanilla. " *forwards post to the various Doms and Dommes she knows....*

Well it's nice to know I got a rep as a biker, at least! I have been trying to locate a long message I left about a year ago with heaps of useful links (bikesafe.com etc) but it seems to have been wiped. To my knowledge there is no East Dulwich bikers group although there are quite a few of us on here who are indeed bikers. But we don't meet up! I am a member of TheLondonBikers and strongly suggest you join them. Look them up (remember the 'The'). They do rideouts and are linked to other useful biker groups and informative stuff like FirstAid courses for bikers (FBOS - First Bike On Scene (tho they all agree that should be 'Second Biker On Scene' since the first will possibly be the poor sod involved in the accident)). ANYWAY, for now that is all I can recommend as a bikers group. They're good folk. But to be brutally honest, I see biking as a solitary thing and prefer to ride alone! Having said that, I also tend to work weekends (all over London, on my bike; nope, not a courier!) so rideouts are not possible anyway, but a meet up with you me MrPr and other bikers on here to bomb down to Thanet or Bexhill or somewhere one weekend day that I am free would not be a nightmare! Anyhow, welcome to the forum. And I hope you have a garage. Some reports of bike thefts have been posted recently. And if it is a Southwark Council garage then yes, a 50% increase in rents! Oh - and mine's a Virago 535cc. (This thread is really useful when student sons and daughters of members want holiday work, I get 'em to clean my bike. Life's too short to clean chrome though.) Here it is at the High Pennines which is perhaps a bit too far for a day out.

Back to the thread, this is such a shame, and again sadly typical of the level of service in this country. If they were working for tips they'd change their attitude!

The Americans are moving out of their embassy in Grosvenor Square. A bit far from East Dulwich but a bigger place. They may have moved out already. I'm going near there today so shall report back if it's a goer and I'll check out any broken windows etc. I am also going round Mayfair later so shall do similar recce-ing for you.

I have read all three pages of this thread to try and read and understand the opinions for and against and am just as confused about my opinion. The concern I have about changing from the current system is that people will not understand it and make mistakes, deliberate or not, which could have disastrous consequences. Could someone explain the difference between proportional representation and alternative voting, please?

PM sent. My neighbour has a flat in Spain!

Fair point, and I agree. Thank you. Also, when buying, remember they may / probably will sting you for the service charges. LAS2000 is realy good at trying to ensure the Council are held to account for what they charge.

Yep yep yep. I hope to be there!
