Thank you, it seems to be a few mins from Albrighton Community Fridge so I'll split the load.

Thanks. I'll call them shortly as I could get there without the car. That's good of Sainsburys! We've done the apple pie and tart thing, an ongoing muesli thing and the coleslaw thing - just not sure what effect all the sugars are having on our digestive tracts. If we were in Somerset and had a press, I'd consider it. Can't be that diffcult, can it?

We're having a bumper crop of eating apples this year - so many infact that we're wondering what to do with the surplus. Neighbours have had some and we've left some outside the house but I was thinking we could pass some on to a foodbank - or even to Kings if they're allowed to take in fruit? Suggestions appreciated.

Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft.

I've booked a session with Elmcourt Clinic in West Norwood, recommended by our daughter. A two-week wait for the slot, though. https://www.elmcourtclinic.co.uk/

Do NOT take it up to motorway speed but replace it asap. I recommend Economic Tyres in West Norwood. They don't look much from the outside but they've always been friendly and fairly priced.

Volcano has exraordinary flavours so a +1 from me.

I thought it was the head of a femur and was preparing to urge you to call register human remains with the police.

I'm relaying what my wife was told so not a joke.

My wife was told that they'd run out of gas. Perhaps we'll all have none this time next week? https://metro.co.uk/2025/01/11/uk-running-gas-shortage-level-warning-explained-22341055/

It was hard to see because it was dark and I picked him out with my headtorch. Perhaps I should be satisfied in thinking I imagined it.

Was there really a cyclist pedalling a Penny-farthing dressed in Santa regalia early on Saturday morning in Dulwich park - or did I imagine it?
-
Slightly off-topic but I was more amused last week to see a resident on Herne Hill aiming his industrial leaf blower on to his garden shrub leaves, effectively bypassing the annual autumn phenomena that is in fact, a beautiful natural event. We're fortunate to have these important bio-habitats among us.

It's quite possible (note the use of conjecture and suggestion here), the brigade may have used the incident as an excuse for a water training exercise. We'd all hope that when called to something very serious involving say, children, they'd already be very familiar with their equipment - so I wouldn't so hastily be critical of them sending four tenders for a pet.

The Mail are reporting (so possibly unreliable) that it was the brick block on the Loughborough Junction end of Shakespeare.

Pret A Manger coming to East Dulwich! (Now open)
Ruskin replied to KateFord's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I'm in no way associated with 'Poached' a few doors away, but the coffee there is way superior than Pret's watery/milky nonsense. -
My wife's. We polished the lot off within 24hrs.
-
Whoaaah, that's some engineering in that! I think however, there's probably some law over here about spraying (spoiler) glitter over the perps. Deserved of the thief perhaps but in one clip there was a child in the background.

Where to buy Monmouth coffee beans locally

Another vote for Volcano! -
Daughter going to Newcastle Uni mid Sept
Ruskin replied to paddyp7's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
The Uni message boards are full of these sort of requests. There are a lot of young people out there needing logistical help so do encourage her to check there. -

It might be my tinnitus. 24/7.

It still needs reporting to the police and presume you did so in order to get an incident number for your insurance company?

Unsettling experience running in Dulwich Park this morning
