At the new Bail Hostel and Secure Accommodation for Wayward Cats http://www.turnipnet.com/whirligig/tv/children/other/pru_and_primrose.jpg the counselling staff take justified pride in their programme of intensive education and rehabilitation.

Have you checked your system clock?

John, indeed. Assuming it's still in force, which I'd think very likely. I did notice that the matching provision in the 1982 Act you cited was more lenient. But on checking, that whole schedule is simply a template which district councils are empowered (by s.3) to adopt if they wish. Anyone want to devise a realistic scheme wherein the students became bona fide employees while still profiting from the sale of their own work?

> No form or racism or xenophobia is ever acceptable, irregardless of who is perpetuating it. Cf "No form of ignorant mangling of the language is ever acceptable, regardless of who is perpetuating it."? :) My serious point is to question the meaning, function and usefulness of this binary acceptable/unacceptable distinction. May sometimes a bland smile, a shake of the head, or an ignoring, leave the world and its future in no worse a state than would an authoritarian response?

It was reading William James that led to it, m'lud.

Trawling through the Met Office regions, here we can currently expect 40mph gusts tomorrow. The highest I've seen predicted is 64mph, in the NW and Scotland, with 45-50mph in many diverse locations, including Canterbury and Brighton.

Just discoverd the Stormpulse forecasts, in a Discussion section: http://www.stormpulse.com/message/201112/30/50 "72H 13/1200Z 61.0N 1.0W 50 KT 60 MPH...POST-TROP/EXTRATROP" 72 Hours from when? Well, the INIT time report shows the 47.7W data, as for the above Advisory 50 of 9pm yesterday. . They say that's the last forecast they'll issue. They don't issue any for systems east of zero degrees longitude, and recommend the Met Office. Lerwick is 60.2N.

> here you can view the storm live on radar http://www.stormpulse.com/ I can't see any estimated times, but I make it at 47.7 degrees West at 9pm BST Saturday (Advisory 50), and moving at approximately one degree of longitude an hour. For the London area the most the Met Office is currently predicting during the next three days is winds of 19mph, gusting to 38mph.

> even though the shopkeeper owns the land > they have an agreement with the owner to sell from his land If they are exclusively on private land, wouldn't a ?4 download of the title plan from the Land Registry resolve matters? > More to the point is Southwark Council's interpretation of > Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982, Schedule 4 Para 1(2)(e)(ii) So presumably some other measure (such as a public footway licence?) would have to be used to deal with the potential nuisance of a shopkeeper encroaching on the pavement.

I expect to be going to Sainsburys next week, the first time for several months.

Is there _any_ word for which you can't find a salacious, possibly spurious, entry in Urban Dictionary? Even Loz and Lozenge. Nul points and own goal.

> I assume it's Heathrow bound traffic as they're mostly very large planes (747s etc) when observing from the street. And presumably not North bound, as would be the case for City planes. > The statistics would definitely be interesting. Well, for you to collate, I think, if you want to make any case or check your own hypothesis. :) The data is there online, as mentioned in, for example, the Se23 thread, or here several times. I reported my own collation of an hour or two's single-day traffic here a few years ago. I also remember wondering, but not enquiring at the time about, whether the data owners might be happy about passing on segments of their raw data rather than having us abstract snippets of it from the visualisations in their online system.

David, it would be interesting to see some day-on-day comparisons of height of overpass: same flight numbers and times, but pre- and post-3 September. I certainly find the perceived noise quite variable, depending presumably on flight paths, wind, cloud cover, air pressure, and who knows what other variables, but hadn't noticed anything to make me think of a recent step-change. The only thing I had noted recently was hearing the occasional propeller driven plane, even two in a day, after not noticing any for a long time; but I don't thinks that's significant. PS: Sorry, I've assumed, re statistic gathering, that you're talking about Heathrow bound planes, when you might, mainly or additionally, be talking about London City bound flights.

> Green light was flashing, turned everything off and I'm on-line, though somewhat intermittently. If you're talking about an ADSL (using standard BT phone line) modem, the flashing green light probably signifies an attempt to connect usefully to the equipment at the exchange. If it fails, first thing to do is check whether your phone line is down or noisy for even phone calls. If not, just carry on retrying. Some modems will do so anyway, hence the continuing flashing green. Doing a cold restart is worth a try, just in case the modem was stuck in a particular state, but I think the succesful connection you got then was more likely to be coincidental. I'd guess they're playing around with equipment at the exchange end, if things are still intermittent. Your modem log might have some useful information about your line condition; intermittent noise or low signal on your line is another possibility, more likely if it appears to be chronic or maybe associated with wet weather.

As announced during the week on the down platform indicators, there are no trains between Tulse Hill and Crystal Palace on Sunday 4 Sept. That's not actually the whole story. The National Rail Journey Planner shows no trains at all from ED, up or down, on the Crystal Palace-London Bridge route. The full Southern engineering work details are here. That leaves just the East Croydon branch running through ED, with trains: To East Croydon 04 & 34 min past the hour To London Bridge 07 & 37 min past the hour

You've already advertised in the Business section. Are you suggesting there's a specific local dialect, maybe along the lines of Chaucer's Prioress's? ;) And Frenssh she spak ful faire and fetisly, After the scole of Dulwich-atte-Est.

Peckham Lidl is undergoing refurbishment. It were nobbut an empty shell last week.
