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.

I'm attaching this post to the first found thread on the theme, just to report that they don't always get away with it. Sentences of more than two years for the two perps here. https://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/25839-2/

I did some checks once, in a local converted house, with a lit joss stick. I put it in the cupboard area under the stairs in the ground floor flat, and the smell was soon detectable on the staircase of the upper flat. In that case there was both crumbly porous plaster work under the actual staircase, and a small gap or two above the skirting board in the area. If it's only coming from the front door, is it because it's obviously not well sealed? Or is perfect sealing not easy in any case? I remember from visiting my father, the smell of his cigarettes and scented 'air-freshener' was always apparent as soon as I walked into the building's common entrance area, and that was despite its being a fairly modern purpose-built small block. But one simple addition, at least to try, if they're not already there, might be keyhole covers for the front doors, as in https://www.amazon.co.uk/Polished-Brass-Keyhole-Covered-Escutcheon/dp/B0073EL0WS. They can go on the inside or outside. Dulwich DIY sell decent cheap ones.

The Southwark "Consultation Hub", which I had to search for after mistakenly going to the Council & Democracy | Consultation & News page and finding nothing of interest, is at https://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/. It doesn't seem to be there at the moment. I've no idea how / why / when / where consultations are generally publicised. I was very surprised to see there's a current one on the library service: closing date 31 October. I'd have thought library members might have been emailed.

The BNA currently has no digitised copies of the SLP later than 1909. The only local frog-related cutting I could find was this one about the Marsden Road reserve.

From 1993 to 2013 nitrous oxide was mentioned in 15 E&W death certificates (Excel file http://qna.files.parliament.uk/qna-attachments/93585/original/PQ210810%20data.xlsx), and on 8 in 2016, according to https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-4947846/Laughing-gas-killed-8-people-year-figures-show.html. I'm wondering why you didn't do the search yourselves. You seem aware of the slightly unusual way it causes death. Its not an absolutely new phenomenon. Here for example is a 1992 paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1506823. Perhaps users should be advised not to indulge (1) if alone or unmonitored -- and preferably to so when there's someone present capable of applying artificial respiration; or (2) if they're possibly vitamin B12 deficient and want to avoid the risk of lasting neurological damage. Last ETA: Actually, include helium in (1). It seems to account for about ten times the number of nitrous oxide deaths. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/more-than-500-deaths-are-linked-to-helium-misuse-226h83spt

I'm taking the easy way out and getting an Ebay package sent to Peckham Argos for collection.

> She just said no more redeliveries from Monday and that we have to collect then I think any removal of redeliveries could be regarded as a breach of RM's obligations under The Postal Services (Universal Postal Service) Order 2012, article 4 of which runs: Delivery 4. Where a service described in this Order requires delivery of a postal packet, delivery shall be effected if? (a) the postal packet has been delivered to the postal address marked on the postal packet; (b) the postal packet has been delivered to a person named as an addressee on the postal packet; © the postal packet has been delivered to another delivery point requested by the addressee or approved by OFCOM for the purposes of this paragraph; or (d) an unsuccessful attempt has been made to deliver the postal packet in accordance with sub-paragraphs (a), (b), or © and a universal service provider offers the addressee a choice of redelivery within a reasonable period and an opportunity to collect the postal packet from any of the following places? (i) a post office; (ii) a delivery office; or (iii) another collection point approved by OFCOM for the purposes of this paragraph. Ofcom also found, in their 2013 consultation and review, that redelivery was regarded by customers as an essential service. "Most respondents to our consultation agreed with our proposal to specify Redelivery as part of the universal service." The papers are listed and linked at https://www.ofcom.org.uk/postal-services/information-for-the-postal-industry/upso. Ofcom are diligent in holding that it is RM's responsibility, rather than theirs, to deal with complaints about RM's service. Their webpage on postal compaints says "Although it is our role to regulate the postal industry, we are unable to investigate individual complaints about postal operators." https://www.ofcom.org.uk/postal-services/complaints-about-postal-service It strikes me that we are getting beyond the area of individual complaints -- there seem at present to be signs of a systemic breakdown of at least a part of the service, ie daily deliveries, and now ? redelivery, over a whole postal district; and that it's possibly capable of occurring in other areas too, in similar circumstances. I hope Helen Hayes raises the question: at what stage in such a case is Ofcom going to have any duty to act as a regulator?
