It is an offence for an ice cream van to sound it's chimes before 12 noon or after 7pm: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245699/pb14030-ice-cream-vans.pdf

Noooooooooooooooooo! That would be really sad news if true.

Maybe it is the invasion of the Claphamites.

Yeah right. Source please Louisa.

Could it be angels in Peckham Rye again?

Eh? Is this a new pub?

It would be great to have some sushi on the lane.

Disney's 'Fast Play' feature on their DVDs. It couldn't be more misleadingly named.

Are you moving from Clapham?

Welcome

We have an unplanned water feature taking hold in our garden. Every time we have a shower or empty a bath water bubbles up in the garden. We phoned Thames Water but they basically said it was not their problem (albeit very politely). I have no idea who you engage to fix something like this as it involves digging up the garden. Does anyone have any experience or advice? Thanks

Love John Craven Mews Round.

Thanks MarkE, very helpful.

... Actually, just Facebook.

Rather than a minimum wage, how about a statutory relative earnings limit, or maximum wage. Whereby those at the top can only be paid a set multiple of either the median or the lowest salary?

The Thameslink programme was original called 'Thameslink 2000' (which was the date by which it was meant to be completed by). Just saying.

I imagine that the individual concerned was some sort of middle class Guardianista.

I suspect that after 8 years, it has probably faded by now.

Ha! I never knew that, but it's true: https://www.gov.uk/rules-pedestrians-1-to-35/general-guidance-1-to-6 I wonder if any pedestrian has ever gone out with fluorescent armbands at night. henryb Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > The highway code recommends pedestrians wear > something fluorescent at night.

Henryb - you make a good point.

Lady D - I get your point. The costs to others, in terms of the potential consequences of driving a car are not insignificant and there is a huge responsibility therefore, which goes with driving. I think the majority of people recognise this, which is why we have a system of driving tests, licencing and policing. These things don't exist in relation to cyclists which is a recognition that it is a less potentially destructive activity. But that is not to say that there are no responsibilities which come with riding a bike. Having lights on at night is one of them.
