Royal Mail Sorting Office Closure Meeting..
ianr replied to DulwichFox's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
> It may have been mentioned earlier in this thread but > East Dulwich isn't the only office to close > this year. To my knowledge Hampton, Muswell Hill > and South Woodford have closed while West Norwood is under threat. Muswell Hill N10 1DW Hampton TW12 2AA seem still to be in use according to https://www.royalmail.com/delivery-and-collection-office-finder/. And I've seen nothing later than the 26 July Hampton decision annnouncement report at https://www.richmondandtwickenhamtimes.co.uk/news/16379472.royal-mail-decide-to-close-hampton-delivery-office/. -

Even their washing machine above can give you up to 999 distinct washing and drying programs. And a five star review: "Beryl Nelly ? May 10, 2018 The product worked well more than a month.It?s worth buying."

Life Saving Defibrillator - Not in our Area
ianr replied to Hazel81's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
> Previously I used this route to ensure all local East Dulwich schools have AED's. James, are you saying then that all ED schools already have AEDs? Hazel81, are you saying that there is only one in ED, at Sainsburys? Is there any authoritative list of AEDs available in the area? -

Recycling in ED, easy to do, or complete confusion?

Use > newspaper I guess. We've been there before. Most recent I think is a 2017 one on where else to get them. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1851891 I've some foot sorties to Devon Street planned, ending with one in which I'll be using a superannuated rucksack to carry the rest of the stuff. I hope to do some intelligence gathering during the early ops. I'm still unsure, from what they say on the website, whether "DVD's" ( https://www.southwark.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/recycling/recycling-centres/reuse-and-recycling-centre?chapter=2 ) includes "DVD cases, broken or otherwise", or whether they'll take other non-thermoplastic plastics, 3 1/2" disks, odd bits of metal, etc. I hope I can get some info on the spot. Perhaps if I just turn up with some anyway ... -
Bike (left on Dover court rd with label - free to good owner)

I assume that an admin's editing of the title means that the bike is still there. -

ianr replied to trinidad's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Where _does_ the garden and food waste go? It's going to decay anyway. -
I had to look up H&M. I see that they also provide the benefit of removing the burden of having to distinguish between Rewearables, Reusables and Recyclables? https://about.hm.com/en/sustainability/get-involved/recycle-your-clothes.html ("And then what" 60% downpage). Any idea whether old rucksacks (damaged beyond respectable or reliable usability) might be included? Or shoes of any kind? At H&M or anywhere else?

Dropped kerb: planning application needed?
ianr replied to Fringe09's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Penguin68, I think you might get done for the clamping. ;-) See eg https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/9155/guidance-unpaid-parking-charges.pdf Lounge? -
Dropped kerb: planning application needed?

MarkT Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > sillywoman, you say "you can park on anyone's > drive". Are you saying on their private property? I was doubtful but took sw's "it's not illegal as long as you're not blocking anyone in!", generously, as implying that it was about parking on the road. The blocking would be irrelevant if it weren't. I suspect now that I was wrong. I'd assumed it was common knowledge that the council can't do anything about someone parking on your private property (whether obstructively or not), any more than they can if someone pitches their tent on your lawn. Those are civil trespasses, actionable by the occupier. -

Dropped kerb: planning application needed?
ianr replied to Fringe09's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I think that's not quite true. As I understand it, no penalty notice can be issued for the blockage of access to a drive with a dropped kerb, other than on a complaint by the occupier ( http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1877690#msg-1877815). So if they arrived back home from a drive and found you blocking their entrance, they could complain and hope that you'd get speedily ticketed. I'd actually be rather surprised if they couldn't do that in any case. What's your source? -
CORGI registration was replaced by the Gas Safe register in 2009. It's required of gas engineers. https://www.gassaferegister.co.uk/. I assume one can be a competent plumber without doing gas work. Or even without incorporating as a company. And incorporation is no absolute guarantee of qualifications or competence. What the council is presumably wanting is evidence that they think thay can rely on as authoritative, rather than coming from an unknown (did the letter have a aname and address?) incompetent or cowboy. And I assume what they're wanting is evidence that there is a fault that they are legally responsible, as landlord, for rectifying; presumably one that's not limited to your flat. Jenny1's suggestion was useful. Have you asked them if they will refund to you the ?250 + VAT (less perhaps your share as a leaseholder) if it turns out to confirm a fault within the system that it's their responsibility to maintain? I agree generally with MarkT, whose posts I've just seen. Could something very distinctive, by colour and/or smell, be poured down a sink in a flat above, in the hope of it arriving in your kitchen and providing further, persuasive, evidence?

If you mean Oak Tree Nursery, it was the company (of same name) that became insolvent and was dissolved. Do you mean that the sole director and owner's personal bankruptcy followed as well? Regardless, I can't find any record of her having any other company directorship. https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/05356596/officers > > Edited to add the nursery owner previously worked > for inland revenue for 10 years! Which nursery?

The most recent substantial thread looks to be the one at http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?29,1617990. The company, East Dulwich Grove Nursery Ltd, is still active: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/09180733/filing-history.

Was this person, as I assumed, following up their non-receipt of a Household Enquiry Form response from your address? If so, there's a Doorstep Script for Canvassers downloadable from the Part 3 resources of https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/electoral-administrator/running-electoral-registration, showing how things should ideally run. The first two pages pertain to HEFs. ITRs, as on p3 are Invitations To Register, which may be sent to anyone new mentioned in the HEF.

That's very vexing. I assume it may be passed to British Transport Police, whom I didn't find very responsive in my case many years ago. Do check, when whoever gets in touch, what the current case status is, open, closed, ,,,. And whether they have checked or will be checking CCTV. If anyone reading this can narrow down the time of the theft, please do so, so that OP can help the police narrow their search. I don't know what policy BTP has, but the Met will devote only limited time to CCTV scanning.

Thanks for the report. Do you mean Eynella Road, by the library? How is the cyclist? And any details about where the pursuit began and ended, and in which direction they took off?
