Just wanted to say that - like many of us - I?m trying to reduce my household waste and karavan have been fab with refilling my soap/washing up liquid/detergent bottles. They?ll refill any bottle that has a measurement on it, so it doesn?t need to be in an ecover bottle.

Just a plea to everyone to be extra careful when using the crossing by the station. I don?t know what it is about those lights but there seems to be frequent erratic behaviour by drivers there. As I crossed with my children this morning we waited for the red light and the green man and were very nearly hit by a car that sped up coming down the hill and went through the red light. We were shaken but thankfully unhurt. I always, always tell my children to check that the road is clear even when the green man first appears but at that crossing more than most it seems particularly necessary.

Thanks everyone. I will investigate further!

Looking for a bit of advice... We live in a terraced house and over the winter months have had some water leaking down an inside wall. The house has a Loft extension that has a pitched roof at the back so it?s a bit difficult to access the roof and see where the problem is coming from. We?ve been quoted ?1000 to have someone put scaffolding up to look at what the problem is, ie completely separate to any work that we would actually have done on the roof. This seems a bit absurd to me, so I was just wondering if anyone else has had similar experience of roof work done and could offer any advice? Thanks Naomi

Nicola Watson also excellent for us - feel free to pm me for more info...

Thanks so much for this - what you do is greatly appreciated by those of us who use the path every day. I'm currently heavily pregnant so not able to do any gardening but will keep in touch with this thread when am less incapacitated. Thanks again

Someone having a snooze in The Gardens today while I went to the dentist - had their engine on when I arrived and still on half an hour later. I wish I'd been more courageous and asked them to switch it off!

Anyone know what's happening to the house on the corner of Copleston Road and Oglander Rd? Pretty serious scaffolding and looks as though it's maybe being converted from a home into something else?

Hi all, I was wondering if there is a regular 10k run somewhere locally? I've heard rumours about a weekly one in Dulwich park but can't find anything definite online. Does anyone know? Thanks!

Hello, This evening I tripped and fell near ED station while carrying my baby in her car seat. (She's fine). I was immediately helped by several concerned passers by, and I just wanted to say that I'm really grateful. I was a bit too shocked to say so at the time. Was really nice to feel like we live in an area full of people looking out for one another. Thanks.

Last time I used QRP station I was told that the lift could only function if there was somebody on duty in the ticket office. I hope these planned closures don't mean we will lose the lift too.

Is the offer for SE22 residents? I am practically your neighbour but just over the border into SE15!

The burger deal on a Tuesday is nice - burger plus chips and a beer for ?10...

If they are wipe clean plastic ones, the Evelina children's hospital is always looking for donations...
