heh heh heh! (long time suffering poster ahoy, SJ)

ah! so Scott strikes again! He cleverly uses the EDF to drum up publicity and business for his pub. He then sells it to a chain, and not at a loss, I expect. Funnily enough it's a lot better behaved as a neighbour to us queiter folk since Scott left. So no tears there. But sad to see that he's got into the habit of helping himself at the expense of his neighbours. Thanks to James for doing his job and highlighting this blatant disregard for their convenience.

And I was brought up with an outside toilet and if you wanted hot water it had to be boiled on the stove. I think what I'm trying to say is you get used to anything and children will wash in cold water once they're used to it. We don't want our living standards to be raised, do we, we're not softies, us

Okay, phew, relative quiet at last. The shrieking woman and her friends are gone. Just some loud conversations in the street. This week-night despatch was brought to you by neighbours of the 'well-behaved' Actress.

The woman with the awful voice is singing (at the top of her voice). Her singing voice is no improvement on her shrieking voice.

They're still yakking and squealing outside the Actress. There is one woman there who has a particularly loud and carrying voice. I expect that they will carry on until the deadline of 11 pm

It is entirely surrounded by houses. The Actress is NOT mindful and considerate of its neighbours. At the moment, a couple of dozen people are yakking and squealing at top volume on the terrace. The noise is invasive and very unpleasant. The hot weather brings the drinkers out in droves and we can't keep our windows open because of the noise. The only reason why the Actress seems to be less of a nuisance than the GE is because of the vigilance of us local residents. We remember how cleverly Scott (remember him?) used the Forum to launch the Actress. A lot of Forumites fell for his bait, poor fools, and swallowed his marketing strategy whole. They seem to be still falling for it even now. (But of course Scott is long gone, having sold out to a chain, laughing all the way to the bank.)

Some Iceland food is not good for you but no need ot give it a special pummelling for that. A lot of M&S food is also not good for you. The people who want M&S on LL want ready meals and convenience food. All ready meals - even M&S ready meals - are full of salt and other bad stuff. Buying from M&S doesn't mean that you are buying healthy food. Their milk might be got from happier cows but I fear that M&S doughnuts are as bad for you as Iceland doughnuts.

MInder, while you're about it, could you also ask about these strange foreign birds that I saw in St James's Park? I'm so worried about the threat to our native pigeons. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5b/St_James%27s_Park_Pelicans.jpg/800px-St_James%27s_Park_Pelicans.jpg

Yep, more blocks of flats - that's what I expected. Do you know when they're planning to demolish?

Two houses on Crystal Palace Road near that junction are on with estate agents at asking prices of ?900k and ?800k So it's very doubtful that the police station will re-open there - the location is much too valuable and anyway it won't get planning permission. Get ready for yet more 'luxury' flats.

Jimmah, thanks for pic, but you've got a toad, not a frog!

sophiesofa, leave the rats alone - tie some string around your trousers if you've got a problem with them and stop being such a human bully
