People probably do not know that Lombardy and Veneto, the 2 regions mostly affected by the virus in Italy, have one of the best health system in Europe. The issue is there are not enough beds in intensive care for all the patients which have respiratory problems. Doctors are describing the situation as "dramatic" - this is why all Italy has been closed down, schools, bars, restaurants, shops etc and all gathering are forbidden. Now have a look at this article - Italy has double the ICU beds per inhabitants than UK. https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-can-the-nhs-cope-with-the-increase-in-demand-11953882 Nevertheless people keep going out clubbing and to big sport events as if the virus was an Italian problem only. The government is not responding adequately either compared to other European countries - we should all start cooperating and taking it (much) more seriously.

No thanks. And I do live near the ED train station.

Just had a great massage from Claudia. Without telling her where my troubles mostly are on my back, she found the way herself! Warm, deep tissue massage, you can tell she has a lot of experience. The room is beautiful, with big windows facing goose green. It is a pity the rest of the building is so old and run down. Definitely recommended.

Hello there, As spoken to Mike, I am coming with a friend, probably to the restaurant around 8ish. Look forward to seeing you, Luana

Fernando came today to cut the hedge of my front house, very precise and neat work. He is also a very nice person to deal with. Fair prices too.

Oskar and his team did a great job in my garden which is now completely transformed! They changed the fence, built a flower bed with a corner bench, fixed new hard wood decking etc. The final result is fantastic. Here his number - 07545 372 421. Kind regards, Luana

An another good recommendation for Julian, who made my alcoves bookshelves - very well made and competitive price. They look fantastic. His number - 07931 520 713 Kind regards, Lu

Live near the train station and I have never had a problem - efficient and fast.

Hi, another good review for Joseph. He arrived on time and helped me moving into storage around 30 boxes, 2 beds, mattresses etc. His price was very competitive too.

Thank you Charlie for raising this. I live in Glengarry road too and I am always picking pizza boxes, magazines,rubbish in front my flat that people around dump without any consideration of others. I find it disgusting and always wonder how people have been brought up really. Maybe the stuff you took a photo of does not belong to people living here; unfortunately all the small bits and bobs in the street do come from people living here.

They did the same in Glengarry Road last week and it looks much better.

Hi there, Interesting thread. I am one of those that bid on a property and offered in the end a lot above asking price. I know there are other places and I could have bought a bigger house elsewhere or the same type of property for much less, but I simply did not want it. I am in love with ED, I am happy here and this is just a choice. Nobody is taking advantage, it is just market driven, I have decided to go for it , knowing the market might go down, the mortgage up etc. But if I am taking on board all these risks, is simply because the value of living here is to me higher than the latter. Of course not all of us give the same importance to where we live but if, like me, you think location has a big impact on a (happy) life, then - assuming you can afford it - all makes sense.

Hi, any possibility to have less flights flying above the people living in ED? When I am staying at some friends' houses in different parts on London, both south and north, it is nothing like that. Why is this part of London so exposed? Is this fair to people living here? Thanks

I am definitely in if on Saturday or Sunday! Thanks great idea! luana

Hi, I live in Glengarry Road and last night some people (I think I know who they are and where they live) have screamed and played very loud music till 2am. This is not the first time it happens during the week. I want to go to the police to report the complain. Is there any other advice you would give me in order to stop this happening again?

Has anybody noticed that on this road there is always rubbish? Could the people living around there ask for a green bin so that foxes and cats do not make a mess?
