The guy sound like a knob, it would wind me up too. That said Huguenot has a point. Even if he stopped taking the pss it would be unlikely to have much effect on your own parking situation. On balance, it's probably not worth falling out over.

Hi, for those of you who aren't already aware, there is a new campaign to re-open Peckham Lido ( http://peckhampeculiar.tumblr.com/post/94561844474/lets-reopen-peckham-lido ). If this is something you would support, there is a petition you can sign here: http://www.change.org/p/southwark-council-re-open-peckham-lido?recruiter=22054042&utm_campaign=signature_receipt&utm_medium=email&utm_source=share_petition Thanks

Seen this 2 year old: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nQT31Noq1eE nice language

Why would you enter that area with a dog in the first place? It's fully fenced off so you actually have to go out of your way to get in there. It's clearly signed. I think some behaviour is just intended to invite challenge / cause a row. We should care if some selfish pr*ck is vandalising the kids swings.

Yeah, I'm not sure either.

Staffies chewing the swings are likely to cause damage. They shouldn't be in there and considering that Goose Green is opposite, there is absolutely no reason to.

.

FFS - I've just been nominated to do this. Really don't like this BS, but I'm going to look like a real miserablist if I don't take up 'the challenge'. Any advice?

There is so much of this type of 'like if you think cancer is bad' type rubbish on Facebook. If you want to give money to charity do it. I reckon a significant number of people taking this 'challenge' couldn't tell you what it's for beyond being 'a right larf'.

Assume it's named after The Great Wave off Kanagawa. Predates 2011 tsunami.

Wikipedia: "A meme is an idea, behaviour, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures."

Fundamentally, sales is about convincing people either to buy something they don't want, or to pay more for something they do - At least with EAs it's the latter.

.... that said, I do think they get a bit of a hard time. Most EA's I've dealt with have seemed decent enough - a bit schmarmy perhaps, but that's true for all sales jobs.

You live near a popular public park which very occasionally has evening events. I appreciate that it probably disturbed you, but at the same time, I am sure a lot of people enjoyed their evening. On balance, it seems to me that you may be over reacting.

I can recommend cycling - only 4 miles

How much does does your father pay for a coffee in this scenario?

Please no more speed bumps. Can't we actually police the rules and arrest the hoodlums.

Apparently most of East Dulwich spends it's time riding up and down on the pavement - either a push bike (although only when certain people are watching, so you have to plan carefully), or on a dirt bike (depending on your socio-economic grouping and shopping preferences, so you may or may not be eligible). I assume it's the same for the over 55's, although Louisa may be able clarify.

Perhaps I look like a policeman - certainly never occurred to me before, but would explain why all the pavement cyclists disappear when I come walking along the street.

Well it's clear that it's just me that cyclists don't want to share the pavement with. I don't know whether to be glad, or whether to feel offended.

... although it does depend on where you shop, of course.

Then you may be arrested for riding your dirt bike on the pavement, but the charges will be dropped later. Page 22 of the Highway Code, paragraph 26.4
