I bet the Police know/suspect who they are, but the days when you can just grab them from home or youth club are gone. They might stash the knife somewhere.

That's truly weird. Wondered if it was a PI with a twitch. the-e-dealer Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Would the DWP or any proffessional agency signal > to come over ? I don't really think so that would > be a give away!

Would any agency (DWP etc.) have any reason to follow you - sounds to professional - I couldn't follow like that. DWP followed a work colleague in the most horrible manner a few years back - and then confronted him with photos of himself. Mind, coincidences/correlations happen too (and have spooked me until I've started thinking about it)

I'd pop in for a pint now and then if it re-opened as a W.

Looks like there's possibly loads - but how many before we look for something sick in society as a whole back then.

Leon Brittan on Sky News about a dossier he was handed in the 80s by Geoffrey Dickens - so off celebrities and back to Westminster.

I'm not that observant maybe - as I have been caught out :) A while ago a 'mugging' outside Peckham Rye station was broken up buy a loud 'CUT'. Hadn't even seen the cameras and I was right in shot. Police I think still make arrests as a team, and could rush out of a car mob handed in a frightening way - but not using clubs I agree. Not seen anything reported though about this, which is worrying. Mustard Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Clubs?

We used to have our post exam parties on the beach - or miles away from civilization :). Suppose that's a no no now.

I've actually been in situations where what I thought was an attack was in fact filming or an arrest (Don't see the sweeney stuff now though).

Flowers aren't - nothing like knotweed - are the leaves the same as the flower - something purple there too. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=japanese+knotweed+flowers&rlz=1C1CHFX_enGB507GB509&espv=2&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=deSuU8fZF46BPYnVgJgP&ved=0CDUQsAQ&biw=1199&bih=747 keluar Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > A neighbour's friend (environment related) said it > is japanese knotweed.

My iphone 5 is definitely faster in general use.

Every time I get on a plane something strange happens. usually starts with "Is there meant to be this much turbulence" "Sir, I'm afraid we're due a lot more" Enjoyed Egypt, Greece, Spain and France - but only once in 5 or 6 years. aquarius moon Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Am I the only one who never goes on holiday? > > I have my reasons for not doing so but haven't > been anywhere for 8 years and then it was only in > the UK. > > Are there people in the same boat who, for > whatever reasons are spending their summer in > Peckham or ED & and quite happy/have no choice to > be here, rather than on holiday? > > Would be nice to know I'm not alone.

But I still will get my mobile out when I choose. Mind you I know my body language says Keep Off - which is how London has made me.

I doubt the guy was acting alone either.
