  1. two more for the tour please!! \
  2. go to the photographic shop on LL opposite the locksmiths. I wasted my money in the chemist near somerfield - two sets of passport photos rejected. The chaps in the camera place did a perfect job for ?4
  3. sorry, this is off the Wallworth road thread but a car free LL???? I usually cycle, but sometimes, I can't carry everything I want to on my bike or it is part of a longer journey - I think you would find the traders would lose out big time as it would just be easier to trog to sainsburies and get everything there.
  4. yes it is, also it is due to have a bellenden regeneration - smarten up the main drag of shops. I reckon it is a good bet, however the bellenden area is still excellent value and very close to transport and LL. Trouble is, they are all 3 bed terraces (that's why we have just reluctanctly moved from there)could always get a lovely loft converstion....
  5. ha ha you too eh?? we had exactly this the other week. I am pathetically obedient when it comes to bus lanes/parking/no entries etc so I too was aghast when I got the letter. I phoned the council to find out what I had done (thinkng it was the top of rye lane like someone else on the rye lane thread) There is indeed a no entry sign, rather small, by heaton road. Fair do's, its there and I didn't spot it. But then, why would you as there is no reason to assume you can;t since one can join the bottom of rye lane by heaton road, but you can't go thro that particular junction. I just put it down to 'you live and learn'..
  6. just watched it - excellent!! well done talisman, and looking forward to the 'open house' date will make sure the bubbly is good and chilled
  7. hi long handles with a gusset please cheers

  9. so, spadetownboy, guess you don't fall into the category then!!
  10. hi, have just moved from this area, after a very happy 11 years. I never felt threatened (except once when breaking up a fight at a small shop - but then the offender did actually apologise to me) I suspect the postcode will be SE15 - do not be put off by this. Its a fab area, alot of community spirit and much closer to rail links than alot of SE22 - you get a bit more for your money and as you say, very close to all thats happening in LL
  11. gosh, all that pole dancing....
  12. ooh cripes, meant to read 'bit of support' hmmm that blasted rose again of course, newly diagnosed meanz you aren't drinking..... yet hic
  13. just a thought - anyone want a big of support? Can be a bit of a shocker but its not the end of the world!!
  14. phew!! how did you find him - was the EDF any help?
  15. and dog kennel hill school is having a jumble sale on the 12th
  16. will try and make it tho have to wait for the old man to get home how will people recognise each other??? maybe leave instructions at the bar?? could be really embarrassing to try and find the right table - esp if it is busy!!
  17. this sounds great - I'd be happy to get involved (ish) maybe arrange an informal meet in a local bar to talk thro how to go about it? cheers and well done Katiesa
  18. actually this sounds like a good idea (I've had a look at their website - pole dancing lessons?????) anyway, it could also include really useful stuff like proper painting and decorating tips, small scale plastering and filling - save us having to get a man in who would rip us off!! lets face it, with all these crumbling victorian terraces we need all the help we can get.
  19. there is a small bike repair shop in peckham high street - opposite peckham square and round corner from Lidl they are pretty good
  20. aha, a few saturday's ago (around 4.30pm) I saw a mini van containing traffic wardens driving up crawley grove, park on a junction (double yellow) with archdale road to issue a ticket to a van which did not seem to warrant a ticket. After ticket was placed on windscreen, the warden got back in and the driver drove off whilst on his mobile. The van was white and unmarked. I tried to remember the number plate but of course forgot it. I have no doubt that had I reported it, there would be no record of this vehicle.
  21. It is kids at the adventure playground. Admittedly a bit noisy however it's not every day. Loads of kids (and not just 'the estate ones') use this place, which has been here for years. There will be alot of very angry parents and bored youngsters if the new flats in any way interfere with the playground. I can't help feeling the planning process for that building was somewhat dodgy and it would be the icing on the cake if they tried to shut down a valuable play space.
  22. I know this sounds bizarre, but I had heard that if a man urinated in the garden (at the boundaries) , it would fend off foxes - best to do it at night I feel. good luck
