How is the New Rule of Six going to work in our Pubs and Restaurants . ?? It Cannot work. Can it ?? I can see Pubs and Restaurants having to close again. DulwichFox

There is a Post Van outside my house at this time (12:00) Delivering parcels to several houses. The Parcel van comes most days. Of course I do not always see it. It does not Always stop outside my house. When I order things on line (Not very often) I use the company's mail service E.G. DPD and use their tracking system. It's very good. Royal Mail also have a Tracking System. DulwichFox

My Postman comes Every day. Not always at the same time. Foxy.

Brown Garden Waste Bins without Licence Labels are being taken away this morning. Foxy

Thames Water seem to be on site now on Ulverscroft Rd. Water is still on but would advise local people to keep some water to hand in case it goes off again. Foxy

Back on the water issue.. Large amounts of Water was coming up through the road surface on Ulverscroft Rd. Work was carried out at the end on Ulverscroft Rd. on North Cross Rd. The water was turned off and the water coming through the road surface stopped and the road dried up in the sun. At 15.15 (01/09/20) the water was turned back on. Water again is now coming up through the road surface on Ulverscroft Rd. The real fault has NOT been resolved. DulwichFox

Whatsapp is NOT Secure,, WhatsApp has confirmed that a security flaw in the app let attackers install spy software on their targets' smartphones. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-48282092 I do not use this App DulwichFox

My water is now back on.. Foxy

I do have an old Oyster Card. Not sure it would still work. I got it at a time before you needed to give any details. Foxy

Conways supposed to be doing Pavement repairs. Currently Whately rd end West side. Parking restrictions in place. Work going on until end of December. ??? Conways engineer say 10 weeks So probably 6 months DulwichFox

No water on Ulverscroft Road this morning. There has been a leak for some time now with water coming trough the road surface. Water now turned off but no one working on site. DulwichFox Just had a Text from Thames Water to put some water aside. Ok if you have any ?

I have an early appointment at Kings booked for October which I will have to cancel I have lost a couple of other early appointments.. The changes to Freedom Pass times have meant the early morning Sainsbury's sessions for vunerable and elderly folk are difficult for those who do not drive, having to drag heavy bags of shopping back home down Dog Kennel Hill. Moving the Bus stop outside Mrs Robinson will involve removing the Pedestrian Crossing. NOT such a brilliant idea. FOX

A ?1,000 fine would stop them doing it again. Sounds a lot but what does it cost to get it cleared up. ?? ?20 fine is not going to deter anyone. Hit these people Hard. DulwichFox.

TFL are not there to assist people. Their policy along with the policy of Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is to make public Transport as difficult as possible for people to use. Especially the Elderly. The government's decision to restrict Early morning use of the Elderly's Freedom Pass has been welcomed by TFL along with The Mayor. Sadiq Khan is driven to work in ?300,000 five-litre armoured Range Rover while commuters endure packed Tube trains and drivers face new ?15 congestion charge #Hypocrite DulwichFox

I went on a day not covered by the deal. I'm not worried about the deal. I eat out on days when it is quiet. I was just saying the food has gone a bit down hill. Shame. Foxy

I'm in. if I remember Foxy

I did not make it clear.. I paid the full price .. NOT the 50% off deal DulwichFox.

I used to be a Big fan of Jonnies I used to like their Shish Kebab served with Rice or Chips, salad and side of Chili Sauce. Recently I visited them and had the same meal I had enjoyed many times before (Pre Covid) The price had risen by ?2. The meat was inedible.. Tough, Chewy fat and gristle. and a smaller amount. The salad was smaller too. I used to always leave a tip but on this occasion I did not and explained to the owner ? why. She said YES i know you you are a regular. She took off the price of a diet cola I had also ordered. I will not be going back. 50% off or Not DulwichFox

Iceland do 8.5" soft Hot-Dog rolls (frozen). Reviews suggest they tend to fall apart ?? I have had Hot Dogs at the Football and Fairs where the rolls tend to fall apart. If I am making a Hot-Dog at home, I tend to use small Baguettes. Baguettes 8 - 9 inch ish available everywhere ... Co-Op .. M&S... Sainsbos.. Foxy
