  4. > cost of U308. This is the odd case where, when people say and hear O in a digit string, it really is letter O meant, as in triuranium octoxide, rather than digit 0. Conventional scientific form U3O8. Do many who know still get it wrong in writing? My first thought was that it was a typo for an isotope number.
  5. I saw these this morning, hung on the Calton Avenue railings, opposite the 70s. [ETA] The keys are still there 28/9; the crafted metal and bead holder has been taken.

    Its site is shown on this pictorial map. https://picturethisuk.org/tag/nunhead-chapel/. There was originally a small Dissenters' chapel, but it was destroyed by bomb damage in WWII. There's an interesting account of a family visit to the Dissenters' corner at https://thebeadenmillerfamilyhistory.wordpress.com/misc/misc-2/.

    Forum data breach?

    I'm not fully sure, after reading https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/9457609?hl=en, what Google's exact criteria are for issuing an alert in a given case. But I don't see how they can issue the specific one above without having some knowledge of the password Sue has been using here. Could someone else, who has for some time been using a relatively hard password on EDF, one thst they've not used anywhere else, try the experiment of similarly trying to open a new gmail account using that password?

    You seem to have a riskily short memory. /forum/read.php?5,1706420,1708295#msg-1708295
  11. > Enid Blyton? /forum/read.php?5,1391114,1391277#msg-1391277 Re the OP: you could try old electoral registers and street directories. Years ago I remember some being available at the Southwark Local History Library and the London Metropolitan Archives, but I couldn't confirm that from any OL catalogues. You can also check Camberwell District birth registrations (taking care to limit your search) at, among others, https://freebmd.org.uk. A check covering year 1920 registrations, for example, brought up 25 Peters, with both parent surnames: a search on possible surnames would of course be more efficient. Bear in mind also the possibilities that she might have been published under a different name entirely, and that not all family stories are as accurate as they're believed to be. PS Not to forget the 1921 census, which may be available early next year: see https://www.1921census.org.uk/, where there's slso mention of School Admission Registers. PPS Amd the British Library catalogue.

  13. There's a research briefing at https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9187/.
  14. The block seems to have just been removed. I was experimenting with editing the username into posts on various boards. It wasn't possible on the ED Issues less than half an hour ago, now it is. And on the Lounge. Before that the only hits across the forum when searching for Adidas_guy were all just his own posts. He seems to have been deprived of his human right to be trolled, insulted or misunderstood for at least two years.
  15. OK. Now copy the post from here, paste it as a new message on the ED Issues page, and press the "Post message" button while silently intoning the word "Alohomora".
  16. I'm not sure whether any part of the 'unwelcome word rejection' software here still silently blocks the posting, as it used to. You might try the test of pasting the full text into a post here — maybe even just editing your OP — to see if that gets the same treatment. If it does you could titrate your message, systematically adding or removing bits, until you discover an offending instance, which you can then try doctoring into acceptability. The incremental mode is preferable if multiple offensiveness is suspected.
  17. What specific support are you thinking of?

  21. If it's not DMC I trust Cora will say.
  22. Get someone to read or copy the notice? Environmental Protection Act 1990 comes to mind after a search on 's.46 council': provision and required use by occupiers of household waste receptacles. Though notices seem to be served on individual householders. Might this be a confirmation of the highway department's agreement to placing of receptacles along the road? https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1990/43/section/46. I've not found anything relevant in bthe ConsulktationHub. Send someone to read or copy the notice.
  23. Did you follow this path? /forum/read.php?28,1987767,1987767#msg-1987767
  24. I've seen two or three mentions now of carried empty cartons, preumably being used as a sort of camouflage. Are the people walking around with these or have they come by vehicle? Is there any possibility that they're combining opportunistic thieving with genuine courier work?
