  1. And if your door opens directly onto the pavement and you have no bin ? What happens ?
  2. Oh dear more stress for my elderly disabled mother who lives alone - she has enough trouble as it is . Her terrace of houses have no bins provided as pavement is too narrow ,front doors open directly onto pavement . It's a nightmare timing the putting out of the bag of rubbish ,can't be left out night before as gets ripped open by animals . And she can't see or bend over ,has very restricted hand and finger movements - my head is already aching at thought of all the reassuring her ,trying to work out how she ( with my help ) will cope . Anyone any experience of how to help elderly and/or disabled manage this ?
  3. we only have four sets of neighbouring households You're very lucky if where you live has only 4 sets of neighbours - I'm doing a mental reccy of where on Earth you could be that has only 4 neighbouring properties and , the rest presumably ( I know you didn't say this ,but I'm guessing that's the implication ) all out of earshot . I can think of a couple of locations around here that might fit that bill . Though of course nothing to say that you live round here - maybe you're on a remote island .:))
  4. I am also in the market for a bike shed and would be interested in views.
  5. Nowandthere - I'm so sorry this has happened to you . If it had happened to me ,I'd be in shock . How would any of us like having a bottle thrown at us ? Hope tommorrow is a better day for you .
  6. Noooo - please tell me this is a wind up !
  7. The march may have been banned but the EDL are going ahead with a " static " demonstration .
  8. I'm afraid I can't advise but have you tried asking here http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=82 or http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=80 or here http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/secondary ?
  9. The silence is a bit deafening isn't it ? Maybe the local papers will report on the results this week .
  10. Long time ago at the one o clock club a lovely child minder told me that she wasn't going to tell the mother that the child had said it's first word ,she wanted the mum to have that pleasure .
  11. Railway line at the bottom of your garden - fantastic . All that lovely space that no one will build on . Jealous .
  12. Thanks happyED = I hadn't seen that quote . "An investigation by exam boards into claims of cheating at Kingsdale Foundation School in Dulwich is looking at vocational qualifications, after initially focusing on AS-levels and GCSEs so that results can be given out on time, said a source. It has been alleged pupils were given too much help with exams. Head Steve Morrison said awarding bodies were satisfied the integrity of GCSEs and AS-levels was not impaired"
  13. suzy I just wanted to say hope you're ok . Not sure how to put this ,but we're all posting saying well done you ,you've made the right decision ( which of course you have ) but I'm thinking what if he's come back and you're trying a reconciliation again . I'm sure this must often happen in situations like this ,that there are several attempts to seperate - and who knows maybe ocassional succesful reconciliations . But my point is ,I wouldn't now want you to be feeling doubly dreadful ,you've told people ,we've all said well done for initial steps towards seperation ,and if he has come back ( all supposition I know ) you'll maybe be back to square one and feeling unsupported . So fingers crossed for you my love , you've been so brave in bringing this out into the open ,please do get some professional support . Chin up ,you'll get there .
  14. No advice susyp ,but wanted to say ( like others ) that I'm sure you are doing the right thing . It must have taken so much strength ,every ounce of your energy to do this . You must be drained and in shock . But it was the right thing to do ,your daughter can't live with this and it's not a kindness or helpful to your husband to get away with his violent actions . Please ,please keep telling yourself that you are NOT at fault here . Have you a friend you can call ? Keep strong ,you know we're all sending you strength and love .
  15. Where did you read that alice ? Have you got a link ?
  16. Does anyone know whether results for those taking AS this summer are /were affected by investigations into exam practice at Kingsdale ? Were the results good ?
  17. The 12 route is as described above - going into town they travel down Barry Rd ,left at Peckham Rye and left up East Dulwich Rd to Goose Green and up Dog Kennel Hill to Camberwell .
  18. Yesterday that section of road was open to pedestrains . Several of the shops in that section were open ,but not the Post Office . Shop next to Gregs that burnt out was Regens ,sold lingerie/bras etc . I'd be interested to know why 12 bus going up Dog Kennel Hill ,it's causing no end of misunderstandings ,as it's not clear if you board it before East Dulwich Rd where it's going .
  19. So I guess the first step to knowing what you want is knowing what you don't want. Not sure I understand this or its relevance to my shock at the way courts are curently dealing with people . Take your point edhistory and thank you DJKillaqueen for expressing my thoughts more eloquently than I had managed to .
  20. I really don't know Frankito - tag them ,release them on bail ,deal with them calmly and with due respect to law /previous judgements handed down ?
  21. The national figures from the Ministry of Justice show that about 66% of those who have appeared in court have been remanded into custody to wait for another court hearing. The MoJ says this compares with an average remand figure of 10% for similar offences in 2010. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14504294 Just shocked by this knee jerk reaction - the ring leaders will get away . Those on the periphery will be punished for political effect ,to make an example . The effect on those involved in the looting will be to hardern the battle lines .
  22. Massive crane gone now . Buses still diverted .
  23. kidkruger - yes Khans is open .Very tired staff what with Ramadan and all the recent trouble .
  24. LJ - I would advise coming home early . I'm just back in from Peckham and Camberwell . Shops in Peckham have been advised to close by police - whether they are just being cautious or they have some information I don't know . MacDonalds in Camberwell has closed and the manager told me that he'd had trouble in the Walworth Rd branch earlier today . Guy on bus just now trying to pick a fight with a middleaged guy " Why are you looking at me ? You're looking at me like a girl ..etc "
  25. From TFL site Route 12 diverted via East Dulwich Road, Grove Vale, Dog Kennel Hill, Champion Park, Denmark Hill, Camberwell Road to line of route. Routes 12,37,63,78,312, 343 diverted Peckham Rye, Copland street, Consort Road, Clayton Road.
