Aston kindly came out yesterday to reinforce a fence post and secure a loose kickboard. Very punctual, friendly and professional in challenging times. Very pleased to recommend him.

Date: 15/04/2020 9:28 pm (GMT+00:00) To: Subject: Domestic violence during COVID Good evening, There is no briefing note today. However you may have seen news headlines in the last few days reporting on an increase in domestic violence since the Covid lockdown began. The Met Police are doing a lot of work to address this issue, one element of which is a poster campaign. We?ve been given the posters attached in this email to circulate in the community. Local teams will be distributing them where they are able to. However I kindly ask for community support with this as well. If you have access to a printer and any noticeboards in your estate or local area, please could you put up copies of these posters where you can. It may help someone who doesn?t know where to turn or feels they aren?t able to get any support in the current situation. Thank you very much.

Excellent. Thanks ianr.

Note from IlonaM: The children's book attached to Owen's email is too large to attach (6.4MB). Has anyone got any suggestions please how to distribute? Many thanks. Date: 14/04/2020 11:51 am (GMT+00:00) To: Subject: FW: COVID19 Briefing Note - 11/04/2020 Good morning Apologies for the delay in circulating this weekend?s briefing note out; I took a few days of leave so wasn?t checking my emails. The weekend was certainly busy for officers on patrol with many people moved on from parks and open spaces. Unfortunately one of my PCs was punched in the face by a male on Borough High Street, who has subsequently been charged with assaulting an emergency work. Officers also arrested a male who had been seen exposing himself in a park in SE17. I attach the briefing note in PDF copy in case of formatting errors. I also attach Coronavirus: A Book For Children which looks interesting and may be of use. Have a good week. Owen

Brilliant KK!! Currently donations stand at: ?7,674,827.69 - he must be over the moon!

So get behind Tom as he does 10 laps a day! A bio on Tom: Tom was born and brought up in Keighley, Yorkshire. He went to Keighley Grammar School and later completed an apprenticeship as a Civil Engineer. Tom went onto being enlisted in 8 DWR (145 RAC) at the beginning of the war, and in 1940 was selected for Officer training. He was later posted to 9DWR in India, and served and fought on the Arakan, went to Regiment to Sumatra after the Japanese surrender and returned to be Instructor at Armoured Fighting Vehicle School in Bovington. Watch Tom on the move on our YouTube channel (copy link below): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4V2b25sB9jf33aQlKCO8cQ NHS Charities Together is a collective experience representing, supporting and championing the work of the NHS' official charities. NHS Charities give ?1million a day to the NHS, providing vital funds to help the NHS do more. So we here at Maytrix thought, what better cause to donate to at a time like this. Maytrix is the company owned by Tom's daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore and son-in-law, Colin Ingram. We set this page up, without any idea that it would become as highly visited as it is, and more of 'heartwarming' story for the local region. It is completely blown up, and we are so proud to be representing Tom and his 100th birthday walk for the NHS. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity. Please send us your videos saying 'please donate' to [email protected]'

It still reads 'foxy'! Not sure of the point you're making ianr. I did not participate in the thread you are quoting. Let's focus on the point of the thread, shall we?

Every death is a tragic loss, whether in hospital, at home, in a care home, at home or abroad. It is painfully tragic that those looking after us on the front line are succumbing to the virus because they have not been given correct PPE.

All those taken by the virus, some of whom are remembered in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/18/not-ready-to-go-tributes-paid-to-uk-first-named-victims-of-coronavirus A truly sobering read.

I managed to send a couple of Lindt bunnies to my mother from this website: www.flowersbuydelivery.co.uk [https://www.flowersbuydelivery.co.uk/last-remaining-easter-chocolates-2020-c-284] Arrived safe & sound and caused much amusement!

Date: 08/04/2020 8:55 am (GMT+00:00) To: Subject: COVID19 Briefing Note - 07/04/2020 Good morning Please find below the most recent briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. I also attach a PDF copy in case formatting in the email goes awry. It came out late last night so I didn?t pick it up till this morning, hence why it is dated yesterday but only being circulated today. This week I?ve spoken to Southwark News about our policing approach in the borough. If you?re interested in reading the article it can be found here: https://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/man-fined-coronavirus-lockdown-city-hall/ Have a good week and be safe. Owen

Watch out for the supermoon tonight 7-8th April: https://www.almanac.com/content/full-moon-april?amp 'Venture outside on the night of Tuesday, April 7, to catch a glimpse of April?s full Pink Moon. This full Moon?which is a supermoon, the first full Moon of spring, and the Paschal Full Moon?will be visible after sunset and reach peak illumination at 10:35 P.M. EDT. ... Thanks to the fact that April?s full Moon will be closer to Earth than either other supermoon in the series, it will be the biggest and brightest full Moon of 2020! ... The First Full Moon of Spring & the Paschal Full Moon April?s full Moon is the first to occur after the March equinox, which makes it the first full Moon of spring and the Paschal Full Moon. The Paschal Full Moon is the full Moon that determines the date of Easter. NOTE: In April 2020, note that the Full Moon occurs on April 7 in North America, but crests in the wee hours of April 8 (2:35 A.M.) Universal Time. (Universal Time is the mean solar time in Greenwich, England.)'

Not yet.

Jusr getting the automated ones - BT broadband etc.

I ordered one the other day after reading that the WHO was going to review its advice on mask wearing. I haven't seen any update on that yet. I rarely go outside, but I thought it is better to have one just in case it becomes necessary. I ordered one for my elderly mother as well as she goes shopping occasionally.
