Was there not a thread to the same effect in the Businesses section last week? Am I being gasliighted?

According to my notes a planning team had been working on the transfer for a year and a half when he moved into his current ?regional oprations manager post in June. He took the decision on the timing of the transfer, bearing in mind that the service quality ratings for Silvester Road typically fell to 75-80% in November/December. He also said that there would be a lag of 5-6 weeks in bringing the staff levels up to standard, as there were personal security checks of new staff that had to be made. I don't recollect noticing any actual institutional or personal grandiosity in his presentation.

There are 38 or so Mail Centres in the UK where all collected mail is taken -- I assume on the same day -- for industrial scale sorting. Our nearest ones are Croydon and Mount Pleasant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Mail#Mail_centres But that leaves the question: who does the low level collection from pillar boxes, etc, and do they make any use of the Peckham Delivery Office? I suspect a friendly postie might be a good source of information. I wouldn't discourage asking RM Enquiries, if only for the opportunity it offereed of expressing concern about Peckham DO. I dare say RM does have figures on numbers of reported losses logged at various centres but would want to keep them confidential. The casess of theft and of mailbags left in a cupboard, that were reported at the recent DCC meeting, were, btw, about the SE21 Delivery Office.

Is the landlord the owner of both flats and of the house?

And a poltergeist would probably flash.

There really should be an I-Spy book. If the purple Qatar one was LL17CVM, it was in Copleston Road yesterday. Some adverts seem definitely to be from old campaigns -- I've seen ones for an Eminem 2017 release and the London Wine Fair[*]. I think the evidence so far suggests that it's old cabs being moved around rather than any refreshing of advertisng material. I doubt anyway whether an unlicensed TX4 would be able to get away with commanding the premium rates that active taxis do. It's possible they're no longer on contract at all. Any evidence to the contrary? [*] Edited to add that the LWF takes place in May each year.

Oh God. Another thread falls prey to the creeping infantilisation of 'helpful' added subject line glosses. [i originally removed the above after an hour, as irrelevant to the actual topic. I've reinstated it now as it's richly deserved. I might eventuallly say more, in the About This Forum section.]

See the FAQs here, https://www.carquids.com/, which says "Currently, you cannot be paid more than ?100 per month." This firm also say that they don't have any specified minimum mileage. But "You will be selected for a campaign based on your commute and where your car spends most of its time". And they ask anyone contracted for a monthly mileage reading.

Taking it as read that you do mean components ...

I wrote the following in response to the last poster who dropped in here for the same purpose. The ?100, by the way, is a special offer that's been made only to early adopters of Bulb. When I switch I'll enable someone I know and who needs the money to benefit from the standard ?50 that we'll both receive. Or,failing that, someone who's going to give a substantial part of their freebie to a worthwhile cause. PS I've just reread your post more carefully. It's actually dishonest. You don't even state that you'll get a ?100 for each person who uses your personal reference number; or that any other Bulb customers can also participate, using their own personal reference number. ---------------- There's something very repugnant to me about the way this scheme encourages people to make use of opportunities like this forum to potentially gain many hundreds of pounds profit for nothing, from people they have no connection with. I'm not going to help you increase your profit. I don't know you, your need or deserving. You're already presumably making the same offer to your real friends and acquaintances. Is that not enough for you? Isn't anything else greed? Every additional ?100 you make from people here, you potentially take away from someone else who doesn't broadcast here, but who would probably be very glad of even just the one ?100.

Where is this online harassment to be seen?

It is safer That's most likely a matter for Lewisham Council, and not an East Dulwich issue. [ETA: Removed irrelevant reference to Traffic Signs Manual. I didn't notice the LH sign.]

The previous thread is at http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1975301,1975301#msg-1975301. Who requested its closure? I've no clear idea of the truth, but from what I've read I'm surpsised,, notwithstanding the upset that I accept was caused on both sides, that it's said to be a still active police case. Have any witnesses actually been asked to make formal written witness statements?

We don't yet know, do we, to what extent the local problems may have been just transitional? Or, if they've been more fundamental, how easily and quickly they can be overcome? In either case, I'd suggest giving it a little more time before coming to any firm conclusions.
