Hi All- Just wondering if anyone has had a home water purification system installed that they are happy with and would recommend? Been researching but would like to know feedback from someone who?s actually put one in. I?m not keen on the jug type filters, more keen on an under the counter reverse-osmosis type of system. Thanks!

We went there for lunch recently. I was very excited as I had heard good things and from the descriptions I had read I was getting my hopes high for something special. Unfortunately we left disappointed as we felt that the portions for Sunday roast were rather underwhelming and we basically departed hungry. In my opinion if you are to skimp on portions then the food has to be outstanding, which it sadly (again in our opinion) was not. Perhaps Sunday roasts are not their speciality but it was disappointing and we now hope, if we return, to be pleasantly surprised in the future.

Can someone please contact me if they have experience of installing a Water-butt irrigation system. We have a water-butt. I need the irrigation system installed. Many Thanks

As a cyclist and motorcyclist I have also experienced both sides of jostling for position. I must say I think most road users are fairly courteous and polite when observing others. I have shared many a bus lane and generally motorcyclists are road-aware. I would say that on a motorcycle I am naturally able to pull away slightly quicker up a hill like Dog Kennel Hill than a car so it would make sense for me to have use of the bus lane. On another note I've noticed how annoyingly a lot of cyclists are not making use of the cycle lane system at Elephant and Castle and this is causing problems.

Can anyone recommend a nice/interesting room locally to hire for a privately catered dinner party, approx 20 adults. Many Thanks

Try Tara Fabrications, on Blenheim Grove.

I guess there is a balance to be struck. For example, if we set the limit to 15mph then there would be even fewer accidents, and so on and so forth. But for me 30mph was about right in getting the balance right between flow of traffic and safety. In a 30mph limit zone you can still drive legally at 20mph should you choose to, despite others getting annoyed. Being told to drive at 20mph in the entire Borough feels a bit like we are being treated like school kids.

Anyone else finding it incredibly difficult to drive at 20 mph in the entire Borough of Southwark? Yes, I know it saves lives, but it just seems like you're crawling, especially if there is no other traffic around.

Yes there is also a hand-sized cover right next to the property.

It is spurting out water at ground level, so not sure about what kind of pipe. Don't know what else can be done until the land-owner is tracked down??!! Seems crazy...

Sounds Exciting- Good Luck to you all!

Ed from Arboristics is very good- we used him to work on an ash tree of ours and would definitely use him again.

I have mailed parks@southwark but am still awaiting a reply. -vandam

Nigello- Fair enough point, however posting it on a public forum is also likely to geenerate more interest and hopefully more of a general clamour for something to be done. Thanks for your advice though.
