Hi Amber I am looking for someone to walk my dog, are you able to send me your details? Thanks Sophie

Thank you for posting the links - I had one in my garden who was in a very bad way but the time I got to finding the appropriate charity to call, he had managed to jump over the fence and disappeared. He was in a lot of pain, poor thing. Will keep this handy in case he reappears.

Do you have their details? If I Google them it seems to direct me to 3ed party contractors. Thanks

Try Natalie Wood, who is a bespoke dog trainer. I used her for my puppy and found her to be a godsend! She is on 07977 522 537. Her website is: https://nataliewooddogtrainer.co.uk/ Good luck!

If this is how strongly you feel perhaps we can then, as dog owners, ask joggers, children or adults without dogs to not permit, use or access the dog walking perimeter? I am flattened by joggers when I go there, all trying to do their PB and striding past anyone without any care of sharing the path or social distancing. No? I thought as much. Can?t have one rule and then ignore others. Let?s be respectful of each other, given the circumstances we are all facing.

Good evening, have you or someone you know had their car windows smashed last night/this morning in Camberwell Grove? It happened to my flatmate and we have been told that at least 4 other cars had the same thing done. There has been a real spike in crime lately and we want to get the police more involved. If you have suffered the same please can you PM me so we can combine our statements and shout a bit louder! Thanks

Hi there I am in the process of moving to a new property on the 24th July and wondered if anyone was going away whether they needed a house/pet sitter during this time? I am a professional, lone female of a certain age (so well past the partying hey days!)and would love a feline/canine companion to look after and keep me company. I have vast experiences with pets having had cats and dogs all my life and I have worked in the past with a dog walking/boarding company if you need references. Thanks Sophie 07740 593 859 [email protected]

Thanks for the suggestion, but it is family visiting me in ED and I would prefer to stay local and promote the area! Thanks again.

Hi Does anyone know of any events on New Year's Day that I could bring a 5 year old to? All suggestions welcome!! Thanks in advance. Sophie

Sorry to report but just witnessed someone on a moped cut through a lock and drive off with a red, road bike which was locked to another (this was secured with a D-lock). It wa on the corner of Barry Road and Peckham Rye, outside Roy Brooks Estate Agent. The moped number plate was chipped but it had R15 and NW. Some kind passers by stopped as I wanted to make sure I wasn't mistaken. They have contacted the police. Really sorry if that was your bike. There was little else we could do, but please contact the police and let me know if I can do anything further.

I really don't post anything like this, but I wanted to warn anyone from using this company, operated by Tyrone. I have had drama after drama with empty promises, builders failing to turn up and messages being ignored entirely. It was a simple project to render and paint some walls. Unfortunately the first builder tried to hike the price up, the painter only turned up for one day, made a mess and didn't complete the job or return! The entire project is incomplete and Tyrone has shown no signs of coming to fix or remedy any of his shoddy work. I have now consulted lawyers to see what compensation I am due - but please double check all testimonials and get competitive quotes, as Bespoke Builders are certainly not what they claim they are!

Thank you all so much! Another quick question, did they reinstall your ceiling lights or did you need to find an electrician? I have just paid to have them installed before realising how bad the noise above was! Doh. Thanks again!

Hi there Can anyone recommend a company they have used for sound proofing? We live in a converted house and we suffer terrible impact noise from the occupants above us. We feel we know their lifestyle a little too closely! Any recommendations would be very helpful, thank you in advance.

Me too, me too! Any recommendations - please?

Just a tip I found useful, when you get your next motorbike cover, write your number plate all over it. It may diffuse anyone from stealing it, as it will be harder to sell. Unless they nick the bike as well! Sorry to hear of your woes, mine was stolen outside my place on Hindmans Road and I managed to get the numberplate of the van they loaded it into. Police still came up empty handed.

Can you send their number please? Thanks!

Hi - we need to move out of our house in a month or so and wondered if anyone has used a good cleaning company that they could recommend, for an end of tenancy clean (and cost). Many thanks

apologies for the echo!

I have received an answer from the council, "In answer to your enquiry regarding the temporary installation of yellow lines along Hindmans Rd. The lines have been installed to enable Thames Water to install an anti flood device to prevent internal sewer flooding to 20 Hindmans Rd.They are necessary to maintain traffic flow during the works. Works are due to start on Monday 28th April and are expected to be completed by 19th May.Once occupation of site is in place the lines either side of site can be removed and remaining linage opposite site will be removed on completion of the works. I have attached a copy of the traffic order advertising the restriction.I would like to also inform you parking restrictions will not be enforced until Monday 28th April. I hope this has answered your enquiry satisfactorily,please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any more help. Regards Caroline Law Network Co-ordinator Southwark Council [email protected]" There is also an attachement of the public notice - clearly not public enough in my opinion!

I too live in Hindmans and am flummoxed by this. Is this because of the new development that is being discussed behind 16-20 and the need to get emergency service access? It would explain why both sides have been painted (for fire engines to turn if need be)However, this can't take place before the developments are actually built, can it? It seems insane, and highly impractical. Tyrell Road and Oakhurst Grove is also going to be affected. Please help James and Renata!

That is a shame. I bought some lovely pieces there and the owner, Abigail was always a delight. Hope it continues to do well elsewhere.

Hi - Can anyone recommend a dog walker, who is able to look after a nervous Labrador? She is very well trained, just anxious around a large number of dogs. She is more interested in ball play rather than dog play and is very sensitive to sound (large bangs, raised voices etc). I would need her looked after during the day when I am at work and the odd weekend. Any tips on how to lessen her anxiety would also be hugely appreciated! Thanks

Lordy, guess I will have to sit it out and wait for a freezing partner to come in - thanks for the updates.

@JosephineB - hang on in there, my partner is on same bus and apparently there is another numpty bus driver refusing to move and blocking the entire road; apparently the police have just shown. I guess you would be able to see that as well! Are the buses actually going up/down Dog Kennel Hill do you know?

That's great news, was it the old man I mentioned earlier? Whoever it is, I hope they get the treatment and care they so clearly deserve.
