Hi, I have a wooden panelled fence that needs repairing, seeking recommendations, in SE22. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hussein and his colleague recently painted several rooms of our house from nothing to finished. He also dealt with things that just came up, like a missing plasterboard and filling/smoothing of plaster. Strongly recommended without hesitation and I would use again.

As people are still posting recommendations, I'd hate the forum not to see mine: My experience with Daniel from Dulwich Plumbing and Heating 07879 220447 and 07852 757 654 is so far negative: 3 Sep I have a drip from hot water pipe. He comes out same-day. He tells me the fee is not per-hour but per-job (i.e. I can't get him to do any other work for the fee.) The job is said by me as "fix the drip". He puts plumbers tape on a nut. I pay him. Later that day, I notice that the drip is in no way improved and text him. He agrees to come at a certain time the next day. 4 Sep After the appointment time (I've already taken trouble to be in) he texts to say he won't come and can he come tomorrow. We arrange for another time the next day 5 Sep Again I take trouble to be in. He doesn't show, doesn't text, doesn't answer various calls, doesn't answer my text asking what's happened to appointment 6 Sep He answers a call (I used the other number) and says he can't come today, and will call me in the morning of the next day. 7 Sep He doesn't call in the morning. He rejects a call just after the morning, texting that he is stuck on a job. I text back trying to arrange an appointment. I receive "Ok I'll text you later". 9 Sep I again text trying to arrange an appointment but no reply. 18 Sep I notice that during Daniel's visit, valves which had no bearing on my problem and thus no need to be touched have been forced, causing them to drip and need further repairs. I state only facts above. Please draw your own conclusions about the behaviour.

It's interesting that in other posts Saied has the same phone number as Daniel from Dulwich Plumbing and Heating.

Hi Admin or Mark, Is there something up with the RSS world? I subscribe to EDF via the RSS link in Google Reader, and it's been great till a couple of days ago. Now, all the posts show as they should in the reader, but when I click on the link on one, it goes to the "home topic page" i.e. Lounge, Wanted, General etc rather than the thread-specific-scrolled-to-the-relevant-message page, as it used to do. I realise this may be a google reader issue rather than EDF, but just thought I'd ask.. FYI the link I use for the RSS feed is: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/rss.php and the link a typical item in the RSS feed itself gives is: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?9%2C217686%2C218577#msg-218577 which, looking at it, looks like a typical attempt to take me to the message-specific item still, but computer says no. Thanks for any help, Macker

Well I still say he's kept 3 quid not 2.

OMG, the waiter must be a thieving-stereotyped-slur-of-your-choice-of-ethnicity, he's kept ?3 but said he kept only ?2!!!
