But KITT talked as well and appeared to possess AI so I am not sure I believed it was real ... The real problem is that now the main roads are 20mph, people use the back roads at speed to try and get to their destination in the shortest possible time... The joys of forward thinking councils 🤓

According to the proposed changes to the ward boundaries, this is about to become goose green village ! Sigh

Not at all, because you live too close to Bellenden village which is far posher (according to those who live there) then down to earth and common old East Dulwich I agree with Kel go away posh people and leave ED to those who have been here for more than 10 years (Kel does 11 years count ? )

Personally I believe that avoiding beans, onions or fibre for 24 hours prior to your climb will ease the wind thus stopping you from getting blown off the dome.... 🤓 It will also make it more pleasant for your fellow climbers

Opportunity for Cooking amateur and chef
TheArtfulDogger replied to franckfoodie's topic in The Lounge
Not to pour cold water on your idea but knowing quite a lot about food and catering health and safety I believe there are a number of issues that you would need to overcome with this concept. Namely 1 safe storage of food both pre preperation and post to ensure there is not any cross contamination between raw and cooked foods.( needs to be alppplied at each premise ) 2 traceability issues around ingredients 3 allergy and other health related issues (if someone died from a nut allergy, who is responsible, the chef, or you as the intemediary supplier) 4 kitchen hygiene and cleanliness (again who is responsible of the client gets food poisoning due to dirty kitchen environments and whilst most people are clean in their own kitchen, I bet they haven't received the required h&s training needed to ensure that all risks are eliminated ) 5 local authority inspections will possibly be require on all kitchens providing food Not an exhaustive list and there are other areas that you will need to consider before launching any sort of food related business. -
Louisa You are making far too much noise over this issue in my opinion Shhhhhhhsssss.

If I was a kid today (and milk men still delivered to every door) then I suspect I would be the ECSR's worst nightmare as I used to do two milk rounds, starting at 6am with the unigate milkman, finishing at 12 then jumping onto the co-op milk float at the end of the unigate route to do another 4 hours doing the round in reverse until I got back home again. It taught me about money, mental arithmetic (always adding up or subtracting changes to people's bill on the fly) and improved my memory as I used to remember everyone's order so that we just had a change sheet to work from, but most of all I learnt customer service and the stark truth that housewives rarely come to the door in the nip Let's hope that we can defeat this policy so that young boys can experience housewives on the front door in the nip for themselves....

It's at times like this when I consider road safety for all users that I ask myself " what would Tuffty do? " Ultimately everyone needs to follow the law and rules, otherwise there will be chaos on the roads and pavements for everyone, jumping a red light (regardless of form of transport or reason) is illegal , as is driving or cycling on the pavement. The rules are there to protect everyone and whilst human error is one factor in accidents, where the rules have been flouted (by anyone) then that can also be a major contributing factor to the cause of an accident. Everyone needs to take responsibility for their own safety as well as the safety of others around them to help cut down on the number of accidents / problems.

I just read on the bbc website that the European Committee on Social Rights (ECSR) says the hours UK children can work are "excessive" http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-35430053 Whilst I agree that children should be protected from exploitation and I'm not seeking a return to the "good old days of kids working down the mines" I do feel that there is a valuable addition to a child's education gained through the independence experienced of doing a part time job that also teaches responsibility and financial management. Not sure I agree or disagree with the ECSR here as doing a Saturday job never 'urt me edukaton

Illegal bush meat in Peckham, it's getting harder and harder to get "smokies" these days 😟

Couple of things to do regarding this situation Firstly report it to your local safer neighbourhood police team, via their email or non emergency number, Also attend the next ward panel meeting to raise it as a concern and ask for patrols to target the junction at rush hour to try and resolve the issue (it won't stop it entirely but it will make cyclists aware of the situation) Second thing is to also contact the council on their central switchboard number to report it to them (they will advise who needs to know about it) Hope this helps

Great drawing, but confused by who requested it and is it in response to any (yet again) scheme by Southwark to introduce a cpz (despite being rejected by residents multiple times before)

If you upgrade, you have a month within which time you can revert back to 7 I did it but don't let it default during setup as it has a lot of tracking and reporting options built in, instead go for the customised option and then disable options you aren't happy with Worth seeing and experimenting with but the choice is yours Oh and if you use the XP virtual machine to run older applications then you will have fun as 10 doesn't come with a virtual machine but you can install and run one !
