"The Odeon was closed by the Rank Organisation on 21st October 1972 with "The Burglars"(Le Casse) starring Jean-Paul Belmondo. On 7th June 1973, the building was sold to the Divine Light Mission and became a Palace of Peace Temple to the followers of 15 year old Guju Maharaj-Ji from India.", according to http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/29273. Harry, when I went to Saturday morning pictures in Wimbledon, when it was only 6d, there was always preliminary communuity singing, with organ accompaniment and words on the screen. Seven year olds singing along to Daisy Daisy, A You're Adorable, Lambeth Walk, Tipperary, Old Father Thames, and so on. And sometimes demonstrations and subsequent sales of things like yoyos. It was a different chain though, Gaumont. Did you get that kind of thing at the Odeon?

lameduck, you're an innocent though, as far as these things go. They've been around for many years. You can also get ones touting other stuff, such as dodgy pharmaceuticals. I assume it was similar to the attached example. That was from Usenet, which uses a posting protocol more like email. Ideally it might have been automatically detected and removed by whoever ran the news server, before anyone was able to download it. Monitoring of forums and messageboards isn't usually so nifty.

The London Metropolitan Archives had a good set of hard copies last time I went, and they've a collection of digital images that might be worth searching: https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/things-to-do/london-metropolitan-archives/Pages/search.aspx. Leicester University has an online collection of digital directories: https://www2.le.ac.uk/library/find/specialcollections/az/historical-directories. Southwark Local History Collection seems low on directories: https://southwark.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/REFSET/WPAC/BIBENQ/198609518?QRY=SHF%3A%20%27.%20DIRECTORIES%20.%27&SQL=&QRYTEXT=Form%2FGenre%3A%20Directories&QFT=SHF&QFV=Directories.

You could try advertising it in the Items Offered section, preferably including the model number.

Or a computer program which re-broadcasts what's played with a delay of a couple of seconds and/or frequencies shifted by a semitone or so. Neither likely to be fatal but could have marked behavioural effects. What would we be extinguishing, btw? Mozart, Debussy, Joplin, Gershwin, Bilk, ...?

I assume this is two kids trying to do some class-oriented satirical trolling.

Probably best to be ready to phone your bank with your card details immediately this sort of thing happens. Here are two of the previous threads on the topic with some more details. /forum/read.php?5,1972960 /forum/read.php?5,1605875

The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Wearing of Face Coverings on Public Transport) (England) Regulations 2020, SI 2020/592, http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2020/592/part/3/made, say: "3.?(1) No person may, without reasonable excuse, use a public transport service without wearing a face covering. ... 4. For the purposes of regulation 3(1), the circumstances in which a person ('P') has a reasonable excuse include those where? ... (b) P is travelling with, or providing assistance to, another person ('B') and B relies on lip reading to communicate with P; ..." Whether it's manageable, practicable, safe, sensible. considerate of others, etc in any situation is another matter of course, but at least you're potentially, after explanation, saved the worry of its being deemed a breach of the regulation.

Reinforced, I hope.

Where do the designation and the legal obligation reside?

For the avoidance of doubt or confusion, DulwichBorn&Bred's post of 10:43 is simply a pasted copy of a Facebook page of Kunaal Hathi. I see he's a provisonally registered doctor, which means, if I've understood my reading correctly, that he graduated this year from medical school, and that graduation was probably brought forward in time because of COVID. Normally the next stage in the arduous training process would be to start in post as a Foundation Year 1 junior doctor in August or September. Instead he's accepted the newly introduced invitations to register provisionally for a pre-Foundation year 1 position, again presumably a COVID measure. And so, rather than taking a well-earned post-qualification break, he's been immersed in all the pressure and pain of a COVID ward. All thanks and plaudits to him for that. There are a number of aspects of his post that I take serious issue with, but I'll leave it at that.

OTOH, we are told :( ... "Treating rose chafers is important, not only for the health of your rose and other susceptible ornamentals, but for wildlife too. The rose chafer contains a toxin within its body chemistry that can be deadly to birds, including chickens. The same toxin can be deadly to other small animals when they eat these beetles." https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/roses/rose-chafers-on-garden-roses.htm

From which ..."We need to be exceptionally careful not to create a sense that all of sudden the virus, by its own volition, has now decided to be less pathogenic," he said on Monday. "This is still a killer virus." ..... "It may not be that the virus itself is becoming less potent," Ryan said. "It may be that we are ? as community and as a global community ? successfully reducing the number, intensity, and frequency of exposure to the virus, which, on the face of it, the virus then looks weaker."
