I have bamboo growing in a long 3m container which is falling apart. I'd like to separate the bamboo into a few separate containers if possible. Anyone up for the challenge? I'm near Honor Oak Road/Forest Hill Road. Photo was taken in the winter so the bamboo looks a bit dead - it's def alive now though (and fridge/builders debris has gone!).

Does anyone know if there are photography courses for young teenagers locally?

Not if they are properly trained. When you're deprived of sleep because of it, it's a problem.

My neighbour's dog yaps early in the mornings and whenever it goes into the garden. I have mentioned it and they seemed surprised! I don't understand why they don't hear it but we only moved in recently and I don't want to cause any rift with them, so would rather just try and resolve it myself. I'm wondering if I could hang one of these from my tree and point it over the fence...

I'd highly recommend Pickwick Estates. Paolo went above and beyond to get our purchase over the line when everything was conspiring against us in December! Good comms too - very responsive, which to me is extremely important. Good luck

I've been number 1 in the queue now for over 1 hour! I have to hang up because I have a meeting, guess I'll try again tomorrow. Need to change to a different surgery, had enough of DMC.

Thanks - I assumeed it would be further sub-divided so that I would only be able to park in the immediate vicinity of my home. So with a permit, you can park anyone in the green zone?

So the CPZ comes into force on Monday 14th Sept. I moved into the zone recently so missed the maps that show the different sub-zones and therefore where I can park with my permit. I can't find a map on the Southwark website - does anyone know where I can find one?

Thank you! I've been failing to add my card for a week and was just on the phone to them trying to get help (to no avail) but then saw this post. IE works. Hopefully the lady on the phone will relay that to any other callers as she was only aware of an issue with iOS.

Great, I'll cycle down at lunchtime as they didn't have any in the other shop!

Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can get white bread flour from?

Big shout out for Gerry from me too. I had been putting off what I thought was an awkward shower leak to fix, the only access was through the kitchen ceiling and a different plumber had already attempted to fix it but failed, as we discovered a little while after the kitchen ceiling was replaced. After seeing various reviews on here and on the SE23 forum, I called Gerry who popped by the following day to have a look. Two days later he cut a hole in the ceiling, found the reason for the leak and fixed it (unlike the previous plumber who just tried to seal it but didn't spot the actual issue). Brilliant! I shall be keeping his number!

I'm enjoying my cycle to Isle of Dogs - thanks for all the advice. I go via the Greenwich foot tunnel and for the first time, I've experienced the south lift being out-of-order this week. Carrying the bike down the stairs is hard but carrying it up is really difficult bc I have a bad back. I therefore went on the hunt for somewhere I could check the lift status before leaving home/work so I can divert across Tower Bridge when the lift out of action. I'm pleased to say I found this http://g.liftcheck.uk/ but as you can see, it reports the status of the south lift as working when in fact, it's out-of-order at the moment. I emailed the developer and he was kind enough to respond so I thought I'd share in case anyone else is getting frustrated: "Thanks for letting me know about this. I've not seen this happen before and I think it's probably due to a change in maintenance procedures by the company that is now managing the lifts (it is a different one from when we deployed the system). The previous technicians would always switch off the lift controller when they took a lift out of service (which would also switch off the monitor, with the system recognising this and reacting) but I suspect that at the moment the lift controller is switched on and not reporting a fault which is why the system is showing the lift as working. I'm in a tricky position because the council never actually adopted (or paid for) the system so no one is under any obligation to fix anything, and also I'm away right now so can't fix anything. I'll get in touch with the company that is now maintaining the lifts in the new year and see if I can get them to either switch off the controller when they take a lift out of service or let me have access to the controllers so I can reprogram the monitors. I'll let you know when/if I get it resolved. Apologies that the system has let you down, Ross" If I hear back from him, I'll post on here. Meantime, if anyone knows of any other way to get the lift statuses, please let me know.

Ah yes njc97, the NCR section was awful so I was looking for a way around it and had spied the park on Google maps - good to know you can cycle through. Thanks
