  1. "Denmark hill has a Wetherspoons, an okay railway pub, a train station, a hospital, and a mental hospital. That is all.


    Oh, and a big scary tower with a cross."


    Big scary tower is Salvation Army. Supposedly, one of the best hospitals in the UK - King's College Hospital, Maudsley Hospital - a psychiatric hospital please as opposed to mental, and King's College.

  2. I have somewhere a driver with an assortment of bits including torx. Can you make a firmer identification from, say the RH panel at [en.wikipedia.org]?


    I checked that link out earlier today and had difficulty identifying any of them mostly due to the screws in DVD being so small and also because I am in office so do not have DVD player to hand. Thanks for your help all of you. I will work it out.

  3. A CD that I was playing the other evening has vanished somewhere inside the DVD player and I am not very sure how to get it out. I tried taking the screws out but they are sort of star or flower shaped ones and although I thought the screwdriver I had was for this type of screw I cannot budge them. Any ideas?
  4. So if you want peas, or beans what do you do? Frozen vegetables are usually fresher than 'fresh' stuff as it is frozen shortly after picking, same with fish. Fresh peas only have a short window of availability in the summer. Maybe you buy beans flown in from Kenya, or blueberries from Spain.



    I tend to buy what is seasonal & cheap. I use fresh products up quickly, so nothing is every lying around to go mouldy.

    Are their frozen vegetables and fish inferior? Their crumpets? Inferior to what exactly?


    I don't buy frozen, full stop. If you look at many products in Iceland, what they have in them are not so healthy.

  6. No matter how small a budget you have (and mine is small), it is possible to eat healthily and from scratch by buying carefully. I wouldn't buy from Iceland if I was paid to do it due to the inferior quality of products. However, except for the odd treat (and I prefer Waitrose) I wouldn't use M&S either - too expensive. Not all who live in East Dulwich and environs are upmarket!
