The booking system is like the hunger games for swimming, I use the app and you have to make sure you get on it at the right time to get a space, and do it at least 5 days ahead to get a chance if lane swimming (10 people for each of the lanes, slow medium and fast) There's a waiting list if you can't get on, but I've never got a space while on it.. totally confusing as, when Ive managed to get a slot and it says on the website the lanes are full with some on the wait list, i get in the pool to find hardly anyone there, one day there was just three of us, when the website said it was full 🤷‍♂️

The Palmerston is, we went last year & had a fab time, had a vegan roast 👍

It was my partners birthday last week …& yesterday he got some post including a birthday card sent on his birthday from last year ..exactly a year late ..was a big birthday last year & had that age on it ..& the post mark said it was sent October 2022 🤷‍♂️

Hi, part of our gutter & it’s down pipe has come away from the wall & roof, so looking for recommendations for a specialist to put it back if possible IMG_2953.heicIMG_2953.heicIMG_2953.heicIMG_2954.heic IMG_2955.heic

Are you Mrs Slocombe ? 🤣 Just getting into the 70s vibe 😼

We are still getting xmas cards in dibs and drabs, 3 today 15th Jan 😬

Would quite like the traffic measured going up and down Ashbourne grove, seems to be the new exit and entry area for people driving that live on Melbourne grove now the EDG entrance is closed... ok for them to drive on others roads but not for anyone to drive on theirs it seems. Also looks like traffic drive up Ashbourne now and along Melbourne to exit further up onto lordship lane opposite the school to avoid traffic further down Lordship lane near the roundabout end Noticed traffic measuring system on Melbourne, bit not on Ashbourne or Chesterfield etc, which are now being used more as cut thoughts to bypass lordship lanes more congested end.

Just received xmas cards from family posted 5th december in Marlow, same happened with birthday cards, two weeks late. Also received hospital letter today posted the 6th

Forest hill road seems to have the best lights this year

If its a proven case the driver was at fault try and get your self a decent lawyer .. I did after I was hit by a van not giving way at a junction on the south circular, two years ago (he was charged by police) I hired a lawyer .. through the law society so I didn't get an ambulance chaser firm. and I was able to access private medical care, including a physiotherapist and physiological help for PTSD and a live changing injury which has left me walking with a stick, also helped me to get cover for time off work due to initial injury and time off for two operations (have another one in a weeks done privately) Case still ongoing, took me a year to finally get back on my bike, still apprehensive though, but I was very physical active before and needed to get my exercise routine back to some extent to help with my injury. Hope you recover quickly and there are no long term effects.

Oh well someone decided to lob a hand sized lump of concrete through the front bedroom window at our house on Ashbourne grove last night. Luckily my 78 yr old mother in law wasn?t sleeping in there last night. We were watching TV downstairs & the noise made us Jump out of our skins. Was witnessed by a neighbour who shouted after them. We have no idea why, we are on good terms with all our neighbours. Might be wrong address, or someone doesn?t like a gay couple living here (tho we have never experienced any sort of homophobia around here before) . So if anyone spotted a youth with green track suit bottoms on who ran off towards Melbourne at around 11pm, get in touch. We spoke to police who gave us a crime number & said to report if anything else happens.

there was a burst water main last week, cycled through a rapid flowing river as it gushed out a hole in the road, an inconvenience, but works necessary it looks like.

I Hope they weren't badly injured ? I received life changing injuries from when a van pulled out of a junction where the driver didn't look, as I was passing on my bike..Luckily I had witnesses, and driver was charged with driving without due care and attention. If your friend has to have time off work due to injury, they need to get a lawyer ( I got mine off the law society website to avoid ambulance chasers, and got a local firm) They could be entitled to claim any loss of earnings or for medical help, or repairs to damage of their bike... Hopefully the driver is found and charged, and you find witnesses, as this helps a lot. Hopefully though they are ok and don't need any of the above
