Just to add that IME ( as an Omeprazole user ) mirrored by 2 relatives - there is a tendenacy for prescribers to opt for ranitadine ( and to move Omeprazole users to ranitadine ) because it is a cheaper drug .

sophiesofa - there is no system ( not sure how there could be ) biggest problem for my 91 year old mother is getting the refuse out ,never mind putting containers back.

surely it's their job to move the bins and put them back where they found them without having a hissy fit. Guess that's why they do what they do.... mmm.... I imagine they "do what they do " because they need a job to pay the bills . Not out of some deep seated longing to collect refuse and return bins to starting position .

No surprise there then .

What date exactly are they going ?

blimey - what strange new magic is this ?

And on a slightly different note - can anyone explain how you link your Oyster card to your 16-25 year old train card ?

Salsaboy - I've been to Lexamark site and checked model and downloaded what they've offered. Test pages ,web pages and Word docs all present same result - cheerily starts off with "printing started " but will not progress beyond 15% ,sometimes 10% . Once when I turned lap top on in the morning ( can't remember if just "resuming " or if rebooting ) the printing staus box reappeared and it went to 99% . But the printer didn't do anything . Very unhappy ...

leave old containers outside for collection as the new bins were delivered (teams delivering bins could transfer any recycling into new bin and take old box away) When I saw the blue bins being delivered they were being dropped off from a white van type vehicle . Looked like a completely seperate operation from recycling collection with no facility to collect recycling or old containers .

I think ajdoc means " was there this much interest in the design of the Harris Academy on the Rye ? ". Have to say I'm with adjoc on this .

aah I was hopeful there ,and followed Salsaboy's instructions ,but it just goes straight to 15% and sticks there . Why do printers/their software seem so unstable ?

No not the first time ,it has worked before ,but has been tempremental for some time ,not communicating . Seems to be communicating now ,but presumably is afflicted by shyness and will only flirt ( as good a reason as any for only allowing itself to go 15% of the way ....? )

Oh yes ,all that . And when I click "troubleshoot " it says it can't find the problem .

The box that appears when printing starts has a heading " Printing status " and it shows 15% .

and won't progress . It's a Lexmark printer and Dell laptop and ,supposedly ,is connecting wirelessly through a hub . I really don't know much about this stuff ,just wondered if anyone had any tips ? I've updated the software ,if that makes any difference .

As an aside - and I'm still finding this unbelievable - community wardens ( red tabardy coats ) knocked on the doors of the terrace where my mother lives to tell her and her neighbours that they are not allowed to put their bags of household refuse on their windowsills for health and safety reasons Their reasoning was that the wind might blow them off the windowsill . They feel that the bags should be on the pavement . ( of course ,where dogs and foxes can rip them open and pedestrians fall over them .) I hardly like to add that what is really needed is for Southwark to come and collect the bags - on the day they said they would would be nice ,but failing that ,another day . But that seems a bit churlish ,it's early days for the new system and I'm sure the few hiccups will soon be sorted .

Don't know the answer to your question wod ,but sympathies . I miss my bike so much - 18 months on - and find myself doing same as you ,always looking .:'(

oooh John - where ?

Blimey - presumably the photo was taken at tea or lunch . They don't look to be rolling in the aisles with inebriation do they ?

James - hooray ! my mother's small terrace is now back to weekly refuse collections and have been supplied with clear bags for mixed recycling . Thank you for your intervention . ( feeling slightly nervous though in posting this in case it results in hundreds of requests from others for similar arrangements . But I promise that this handful of properties were unusual in their circumstances .)

I'd noticed this as well - assumed they'd not finished .

Lidls in Peckham have currently got a neat metal pedal bin with two plastic containers/inserts .

Do traffic wardens ever visit ? I frequently see them in other locations ,but have never seen any in Townley Rd . Though I avoid the road during term time because the coaches ,cars picking students up ,general congestion put me off .

Dorothy - but if the brightest/most academically succesful are in the minority then presumably ,in order to fill the higher bands the school would have to cast their net further afield than when filling the middle of the range bands for which presumably there are more candidates ? So wouldn't this mean that children qualifying for the higher bands have a greater chance of getting in to the school of their choice - because they don't have to live so close as the children who are average and therefore more numerous and therefore have greater competition ? Although .... the banding system the Harris Academies use is "referenced to the national distribution of ability " so presumably that means if a particular cohort contained a high percentage of very able children , a higher number than the "national distribution " then they'd find it harder to get a place ? I do think banding is complicated and not the neat divvying up of a group of applicants that it appears to be .
