  1. Matt Hancock seems to say (Marr/Ridge) there are four planned phases Contain, Delay, Research, Mitigate. Whilst looking found this example of a corporate response from Coinbase (FinTech) https://cointelegraph.com/news/coinbase-releases-its-plan-for-the-coronavirus-spread

I hadn't even heard of it until Warren Gatland said Wales rugby players needed it and now it's everywhere :) Edit: and Yes I think it is a good thing as you described

I assume there's a link to Italy, China or similar as there's a nasty cough that's going around with a temperature that I don't think is COVID-19.

  11. They need to stick to this sort of witticism (c/o sh*tlondon) https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10158145191119923&set=gm.10157553463323791&type=3&theater&ifg=1

  13. Ireland Italy rugby match cancelled unsurprisingly.
  14. Stockmarkets seem to have taken fright of something related to this today - maybe it's Italy. -900 in the US

Well I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt - they are professionals like you say.
  16. Anyway the upshot of it is - if my concerns were met before this came out I wouldn't be here talking about it and I'd love for a well run center with a nice space to work for the community around here (I originally thought it was for Uxbridge due to a link I followed).
  17. Blah Blah Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > And having already insulted young people with low > level mental health problems, you now conflate > them with 'gangs'? Really? No you still miss my point - I quote "In council briefing papers it is envisaged as looking like a ?cross between a Starbucks and Apple store?. It will also have an open access policy. Gang types (and I don't mean valid users of the service) will be drawn to that like a moth to a flame unless there's a plan to stop that happening (like a security guard). They really want to make something nice with a nice atmosphere for 15 - 25 year olds (or younger) by the sound of it - but that is just what will attract others. If anyone saw the BBC show "don't get mad - get even" they had a sort of teenage hangout and I see that as exactly what the council sees for this space.
  18. Back to my more rational debate anyway (after very little sleep last night lol). Hours of use are OK for me - don't forget what scares me is 'gangs' hanging around outside all night - its difficult to justify my concerns without putting myself in the front line and I won't do that. HOURS OF USE The use hereby permitted for the proposed health centre; purposes shall not be carried on outside of the hours of: 0900hrs - 1900hrs; on Monday to Fridays; 0900hrs - 1300hrs; on Saturdays, and; 0900hrs - 1300hrs; on Sundays and Bank Holidays. Reason: To safeguard the amenities of neighbouring residential properties in accordance with The National Planning Policy Framework 2019, Strategic Policy 13 High environmental standards of The Core Strategy 2011 and Saved Policy 3.2 Protection of Amenity of The Southwark Plan 2007.
  19. I will certainly start 101'ing all the anti-social incidents around here mind you because it's getting me down.

You've got me wrong - I'm talking about the center being cuckolded by other young people - I mean Zone2 etc. . Anyway I'm out of this - more drunks shouting last night - some boy punching a street sign repeatedly. I might join the exodus from Co-Op House - So many people waiting to sell once the issues with cladding are sorted.

    Mine was OK on a Samsung watching on Sky but anything on Sky I have to turn the volume right up - switch to Netflix and you get deafened. Great first episode of the last series :)
  22. Don't get my moans wrong Tasha - I moan at everything I don't know but if it works great. It's better to moan at first and be pleasantly surprised than be enthusiastic and disappointed. Re: security - everyone around here seems to want to have a piece of everything - if our main flat doors are left open people come in just to see what they can find - meaning you'll get loads of different people walking in if it's open.
  23. Tesco Rye Lane requires a permanent doorman and between that and 255 Rye Lane is a Ladbrokes betting shop. Why didn't they consult the residents first about how this might be done as this isn't going to work without massive security - what happens when dealers start hanging around ?.
  24. and heres the website of the company managing it https://www.groundwork.org.uk/ I take it they will need doormen on the door if it's a coffee shop for vulnerable children ?
  25. https://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/new-mental-health-drop-in-centre-for-young-people-coming-to-peckham-in-may/ Here we go - I don't see how this benefits the residents above as was promised me by Tower Homes 10 years ago. Are they part subsidising my huge rent portion. I'll find out.
