I see Willmot Dixon are involved- a friend in construction said-'think of a number and double it'- what on earth could he have meant?

There is a place on the A13 near Beckton run by East Europeans and they take rags by the kg.

I wish -like new York- cigarette smoking could be banned from pavement cafes and pub gardens because at this time of year you go for a nice coffee, sit outside and be promptly surrounded by clouds of smoke. E-cig vapours do not bother me at all...the 'smoke' is the same stuff that is used for 'smoke' on stage

Yes the Lost Gardens are great, also Exmoor Zoo, Healey's Cider Farm has stuff for kids as well as cheap Rattler!

Is there a pub large enough? All the Wethers I have been to have been very large. The only one that seems to fit the bill is the Plough...count me in

There is potential to do 3 GCSEs in Science and 3 in Maths (Maths, Stats and Additional maths) so that's 6 for a start (I do not know about the Charter school though)...some are done in year 10. BUT to get a decent A level A/A* grades are needed in the GCSE....some schools are happy for the student to get a C grade....and will enter them early...does not do the future of the student any good especially since Universities will look at GCSE attainments...

Make veggie fritters with soya flour and wheat flour...yummy

Some of my babies were born there- end of an era

Yes- I actually meant the Charter School ones- and they could repaint the triangles on the speed bumps while they are at it

They should repaint the zebras outside Alleyn's - nearly mowed a kid down today!

Can I see that it has a hairy stem in the second pic?

Went by yesterday and there is wooden hoarding up at the front in Sylvester Road and workmen wandering in the front and back of the building

You would think so but I came across a 'biodegradable' M and S carrier from years ago and it had done was disintegrated into a million tiny green bits of plastic- more harmful to wildlife in my opinion. I have a magazine wrapper from English Heritage and it is made of potato starch and it says to put it into the compost NOT the plastic waste.

Oh dear- I hope this type of crime is not making a comeback https://news.sky.com/story/mobile-phone-steaming-thieves-are-jailed-10450614

Yes jonnywalker- I blame the BBC personally...

The dog part of Ruskin Park is a huge field divided off from the flower gardens, pond etc but there are still selfish people who spoil it for others

If I've ever had a penalty notice there is always a photo. Could this be a scam? There was a spate of scam emails accusing people of speeding in the past.
