    Horse meat

    Nope I don't eat Tesco burgers or Findus lasagne. BUT this will not be limited to them I reckon. It's all about knowing the farm to fork journey and getting what is says on the label. The pressure the supermarkets are placing on the suppliers will mean that shortcuts will have be taken everywhere. I reckon this is jus the tip of a much bigger iceberg
  2. See there is building activity in both the vacant shop next to Cafe Nero and where Sally's was. Anyone know what's going into them? Any ideas on what's happening to the Green & Blue premises or the printing/copying place next to Kaval newsagents? We seem to have quite a few places vacant on the Lane at present.

    Horse meat

    If there was ever a time to support our local independent shops and the Saturday market it's now. Don't mind eating horse meat, have had it in France, but when I buy supposedly quality beef that's what I expect to get.
  4. You should all tr The Dish and the Spoon 65 Cheltenham Rd. Brilliant cafe aimed at families with kids as Shona the owner designed it that way. https://en-gb.facebook.com/TheDishandtheSpoon?sk=info&filter=12
  5. Nice one LucyB. Love living in a community that is so good at offering help. :-)
  6. thanks first mate about to do the surgical spirit bit now :-)
  7. Foxes - all over our path, outside house, saw them at it the other morning. Domestos, a bowl of hot water and perseverance :-)
  8. Southwark police were tweeting warnings about smartphone muggings today. seems to have been quite a few in the past few days.
  9. For the geeks out there - http://www.flightradar24.com/ or http://planefinder.net/
  10. Thought the attached might be of interest as I took the screenshots just as the first flight went overhead this morning... You will see that there were 17 flights en route and due to land at Heathrow this morning between 0432 and 0600. Departing planes were not taking off before 0600.
  11. Just a thought but if the Oyster was registered and you alert TFL that it's been stolen they may be able to nab/capture on CCTV the person who stole it when they try to use it??
  12. Best coffee - The Dish and The Spoon, Cheltenham Road Best Sunday roast - East Dulwich Tavern (EDT) Best breakfast - Le Chandalier Best hot sandwich - the Hot Pork stand entrance to North Cross Rd on Saturday mornings
  13. We live on Lordship Lane, down The Plough end, always sleep with the window open can't stand stuffy bedrooms) and I could set my watch by the flights going over. 0435 like clockwork, I wake to them every morning, then roll over and try to go back to sleep. Presume it's the long haulers as I have landed in at Heathrow around 0530-0555 several times in the past 3 months coming back from Asia and Australia on business. I travel a lot for work and have FlightBoard on my iPad and iPhone. It's a live feed from the boards at airports around the world. The Heathrow one has LOADS of flights coming in before 0530. I have also installed FlightTrack on my iPad as that identifies the flights in real-time, will be trying to identify the exact planes.

    Rugby matters

    Gingerbeer - Japan is where most of the Aussies, Kiwis and Fijians go when their rugby playing days are coming to an end they no longer make the Wallabies or the All Blacks and they are keen to feed their retirement funds. Japan has a thriving, higly competitive scene in which millions of Yen gets invested. Most of the big Japanese brands sponsor a side and the fans go absolutely nuts over the imported players.
  15. I suggest you try this site - http://www.petfriendlyrentals.co.uk/ - Pet Friendly rentals
  16. This was the subject of discussion on Radio4 last week. They recommended you get in touch with BMW as it's a known problem and BMW should be fixing it. It came up in a consumer programme in relation to it affecting your insurance
  17. Best one we have had recently was EDT (East Dulwich Tavern) Goose Green end of Lordship Lane; otherwise we always go to our local, The Plough at the Barry Rd end of Lordship Lane
  18. Looking for a great colour laser printer / copier / scanner/ fax multi-function machine? Please check out my listing on the For Sale page
  19. You will get turned away from A&E for this sort of injury. My suspected broken wrist was treated at the Urgent Care Clinic at Guys & St Thomas' at London Bridge. Seems to be the one to go to for ED - http://www.guysandstthomas.nhs.uk/our-services/emergency-care/urgent-care-centre.aspx http://www.nhs.uk/Service-Search/Urgent%20Care/LocationSearch/0
  20. If you can, I would move. Awful decision to reach but your peace of mind and enjoyment of your property must come first. If she is doing these things to reduce maintenance she may be feeling her age and worried that she herself might be moved on if she can no longer look after the property. I wonder what inside her place looks like. In my experience,many elderly folk get very defensive and proud about their spaces and don't like admitting they need help or cannot cope. She may just be terrified that someone will investigate more fully and that she ends up in a retirement/care home. Are you aware of any family or friends who visit her you could maybe have a chat to?
  21. All heading into City. If you have an ipad / iphone and are really geeky I suggest you get the apps FlightBoard and FlightTrack - real time boards at the airport and in the sky. Then you really know when and where they are coming and going from!
  22. Have you tried The Dish and the Spoon 61 Cheltenham Rd, SE15 3AF, other side of the park? Nice new coffee house doing good coffee, tea, home made cakes and savouries, sandwiches. Also stock a large selection of deli items to buy. Big roomy space.
