Disruption at East Dulwich expected until the end of the day. Can you tell me more about the incident? A problem has been identified with the procedure for stopping trains formed of 8 coaches at East Dulwich, affecting Platform 1. This platform is used by trains towards London Bridge. In some cases, train doors would not be in the correct location alongside equipment on the platforms. Southern services which call at this station are generally formed of 8 coaches, and therefore we are unable to call at this station in this direction. A plan to reopen the platform is being formulated. Until we can confirm that the correct procedure is in place, we will only be able to use Platform 2. https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/295465.aspx

I assume the problem perceived by the OP was that some people may assume that the sign doesn't apply on bank holidays; just as some don't realise that the sign is a prohibition, or one that that applies to their class of vehicle. Which is a real problem, if you think it's regrettable for people to unknowingly and unnecessarily commit themselves to a ?65 debt for just the benefit of passing the sign.

> Yes it's Monday to Friday regardless > of bank holiday or anything else! The only judgment I've found supports that view on bank holidays when the relevant Order is silent on the point: 5. In my opinion the argument put forward on this review by the Council that where no exemption is expressed in the Order then no exemption can be inferred to apply to Good Friday is a compelling one. I am of the opinion that the Order does apply on Good Friday. The only days on which the prescribed hours do not apply are Sundays. They appear on the face of the order to apply on all other days including bank holidays and other public holidays.

> Otherwise vandalism. Ouch! Save that for costly harm, surely? More likely than that to be a piece of agit-trolling, done specifically in the hope of provoking a thread here just like this.

Following the instructions (not necessarily needed) at https://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Slideshow-Using-IrfanView and using the excellent free (donations possible) multifunctional Windows program Irfanview — downloadable from https://www.irfanview.com/ and easily installed — I created the attached executable slideshow in a couple of minutes. I've saved it with a .scr extension (could also have been .exe) and tested it on my own PC. Just download to your PC and run. Windows may belch and say it's a suspect file, but offers you the chance to run it anyway. It really is safe to do so. Esc key will halt and close it. If you want something that you can upload to Instagram and that will run there, I've no idea whether this .scr or .exe file will, as I don't know anything about Instagram. Have you asked for advice on Instagram itself, or doesn't it allow that sort of thing?

> You will be covered for the (LTN) camera restrictions > within Southwark as shown on link below; https://www.southwark.gov.uk/parking/disabled-parking/parking-with-a-blue-badge?chapter=2 That seems to be a useful link to the page on Southwark Streetspace measure exemptions" for holders of Blue Cards, but I don't see any mention of "AD badge permits" or a general Southwark-wide freedom from the need to display the card. Were I such a person I'd want to see official terms and conditions rather than relying on a post here.

Yes. I happened to catch some expert answers to viewers' Covid questions on BBBC1 Breakfast this morning. I'll try to get an audio version of the relevant bit, which more or less confirmed my own view, that the LFT positive test should be taken as definitive. I'd also be inclined to add a few days' leeway once that stops, even with mask etc, at least before any contact with anyone particularly vulnerable. The guy did mention cases where traces of virus lingered on in a few people for months without their necessarily being infectious, though I suppose that doesn't rule out the possibility of a Typhoid Mary carrier type very occasionally existing. It's really all a matter of probabilities and making fairly reasonable judgements about them.

> I?ve got to have a blood test as > I?ve been suffering from bouts of > fatigue recently My understanding from that is that you've been told by a doctor that s/he wants those done, and that you've probably already been given the form to take to the phlebotomy unit for the sample to be taken. Is that the case? If it is, does the form specify any other items to be included in the tests, as I think is usually the case? And is your worry that your taking of the supplements will affect the results?

> I just used wwww.iloveimg.com which was > very quick and easy Too many wubbleyous: it's https://www.iloveimg.com. Cropping can be useful if any of the image is superfluous. Resizing will probably be the your main stratagem. Bearing in mind that even a laptop screen may be only 1200 pixels wide, an image with sides of just a few hundred pixel will usually be adequate. For a free image editor to install on a home computer running Windows, I'd recommend https://www.irfanview.com.

They seem to be taking what seems to be a pretty surefire way of dealing with the problem immediately, as set out in the Warning Notices section 3 of the Noise Act 1996. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1996/37/section/3 There's a readable account of this law and procedure at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/noise-nuisances-how-councils-deal-with-complaints#noise-at-night-warning-notices, and more in a Neighbour Noise booklet https://www.environmental-protection.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Neighbour-Noise.pdf.

For any debit card transactions, the OK given online would typically have signified that your bank had authorised the payment and reserved the amount as pending, and your available balance would have been correspondingly reduced. But it's for the payee to send another message to actually collect the money. They'd typically do this in the overnight batch, but could take longer. My own bank, probably typical, removes uncompleted pending transactions after seven days, though I understand from their help pages that the payee might still be able to try to collect substantially later. So Southwark's failure to collect could have been due, among other possibilities, to problems with their system's attempt to collect during the 'pending' period, or whatever period their agreement with your bank/card issuer allowed them. Something like that happened to me last year with my TV licence. My online payment went ok and I got an email saying my licence had been renewed. Two or three weeks later they sent a snail mail letter to say the payment hadn't been received — I think there was something in the letter to suggest or imply that it was a system fault somewhere — so could I please pay. And the rest of their communications were the standard warnings and threats that automated systems throw at you. So, if you used a debit card payment, it might be a good idea to see if you can get some hard facts from your bank: whether there's any historic record of authorisation for the payment, or of any attempts to collect it. I surmise that similar sorts of considerations might also apply with credit card transactions, but don't really know.

There'll be all sorts around once the Calorie Labelling (Home Sector) (England) Regulations 2024 come into effect.

In response to JohnL: "drinks containing more than 1.2% by volume of alcohol" are defined as "exempt foods" here. I thought there was a legal requirement for a price list to be available in all public bars? Generally, if there's a franchise agreement to provide food, and there's a common look and business model applied, it's the franchisor that'll be the qualifying business so far as employment numbers go. That would seem to go for the eating part of pubs too. Full definitive details at The Calorie Labelling (Out of Home Sector) (England) Regulations 2021. I'm surprised they're not giving out free "adults need around 2000 kcal a day" badges for us all to wear.
