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.

THIS HAS BEEN FOUND-

THANKS TO ANYONE FOR LOOKING!

I have hardly used my scooter over winter but when I went to get it out the other day I could not find it.

I think it may have been left in Peckham Rye Park or Lordship Lane.

It looks a bit like this

And also it has my phone number on the front

Many Thanks

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.

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.

Hello All, and especially Councillors.

I was walking up Brockley Footpath (between Limesford Road and Linden Grove)with my elderly Mum and Dad recently and looking at the Cemetery wall. It is leaning at such an angle that it looks like an accident waiting to happen, maybe not next week but one day. I mean if someone is walking on the footpath when it collapses they will have no chance. So I am just wondering are there plans to straighten or re-structure the wall?

Many Thanks,

Vandam

Hi -

I am looking for recommendations for a reliable car dealership in SE London as I will probably be in the market for a second hand car quite soon. Will be looking for a family car in the <?5k sort of range.

Any thoughts or pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

As a fellow biker I was really sorry to see this thread!

Will keep a lookout and fingers crossed.

My bike was taken once but got recovered so you never know!

Your trip looks amazing, Well done for doing that- Inspiring.

Hi-

We used Lordship Lane Carpets and were very happy.

Boulangerie Jade on Barry Road which took over the 'homemade' site is a very nice place for bread and pastry treats.

Hi All-

Can anyone fix or recommend someone to fix a fridge door that isn't staying shut when closed.

I was recommended someone on Anerley Hill but cannot get through so need a back-up option.

Thanks,

vandam

I met morganico once up near Herne Tavern and he seemed like a really sound geezer.

I for one am very impressed with what I've glimpsed and have nothing but respect for the skills of folk who can carve wood in this way- Spectacular!

Well done to all involved!

I really like strolling down North Cross Road Market on a Saturday morning.

Errh, that's it.

Relax people.

:)

Looks like they have started doing some re-surfacing on St Norbert Rd, Yippee!

hopefully they will do the entire length of it down to Brockley station.

St Norbert Road in Brockley is an absolute shocker- cracks and holes all over the place, if you ride it at night even with a decent light on you just have no chance of knowing what heavy bumps you might hit !! It is way overdue a bit of re-surfacing.
