Can I have a link to the source of the slide please, preferably to the whole document in which it occurs as Figure 5.

There are also two pharmacies in Nunhead giving vaccinations. [You'll need to put in a valid neighbouring (eg SE15 3HB) full postcode to get to their entries.] ETA: not so actually. Don't know how that happened -- they are included when I enter my SE22 postcode. Incidentally, Kristal do walk-ins too. I was in and out with a flu jab in five minutes this morning, after having phoned (15 min. :-)) to check, as the online system doesn't do same-day bookings.)

https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/pharmacies/book-flu-vaccination/ This covers the dual vaccination sites too.

They're using both Spikevax (Moderna) and Pfizer ones this time, but say individuals don't have any choice (though I don't think that necessarily precludes their choosing to override specified practice if you give them good reason). When I was looking around for the basic information -- https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/covid-19-vaccine/ easily found via https://nhs.uk -- I didn't get round to finding who they'll give which to. It will be there somewhere. Look maybe for something on the technical side for practitioners and administrators, like the Green Book. ETA: More info here about the JCVI vaccine recommendations, though even there I can't see anything definite re the over-18s. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-autumn-2024-vaccination-programme-jcvi-advice-8-april-2024/jcvi-statement-on-the-covid-19-vaccination-programme-for-autumn-2024-8-april-2024 .A rash guess would be that the Moderna one would be chosen, as easier to manage, and possibly cheaper. But I see that there too you get pointed to the Green Book. ETA PS: I see that in November 23 I was given the Pfizer one, at a pharmacy, so no more guesses from me.

I agree about the separate section. The old Beeb Messageboard for The Archers had one called The Bull, for loungelike chat, and another, The Bull Upstairs, for games: https://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbarchers. That model's endured satisfactorily for years in one of the remaining Mustardlands: http://www.paranormal.org.uk/mustardland/index.php.

I've done some searching and come up with these. The first looks very helpful for getting to know about the Hub itself, and the others may give some useful history. I've yet to look through them myself. https://carnegielibraryhub.org.uk/

https://www.lambeth.gov.uk/libraries-0/carnegie-library It's a nice little library and meeting place. One of the Carnegie ones of course. Actually not so little, the actual building: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Carnegie_libraries_in_Europe#/media/File:Carnegie_Library_Herne_Hill.JPG I get books from there sometimes, and have been to an occasional talk. Last week there was a foursome quietly playing ?bridge/whist there mid-morning. I'm afraid I don't know anything about the Hub project itself.

Rhinovirus seems to be a recent top of the pops. https://ukhsa-dashboard.data.gov.uk/

Good. It's unlikely to be a situation they've not had to deal with before. https://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/problems/solicitor-closed-down/

If you're having difficulty getting any information from the presumed acquirers I'd suggest you try contacting the person who is their[1] effective owner (see attached extracts from CH records). [1] In fact owner of Clutton Cox Ltd, Abington Law Ltd, Law Central Ltd, Law 4 You Ltd, JMG Legal Ltd, ... Glass.txt

Mary there may be a remedy -- paradoxically perhaps, and maybe a bit scarily, when the matter reaches the high court, where the matter is made into a civil debt. I wrote about it on page three of this thread, and there's also an authoritative account (see in particular the statutory declaration section) at https://www.londontribunals.gov.uk/eat/understanding-enforcement-process/moving-traffic-pcn-enforcement-process Or perhaps I've jumped the gun and you're already past that stage?

I don't know if it complicates matters, but I see at https://solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk/office/617230/clutton-cox-limited that Clutton Cox (t/a Law Central) are said to be not an SRA-regulated law practice. Whereas Glazer Delmar are/were. But I can't imagine that there aren't responsibilities devolving somehow from that regulation on a practice's ceasing.

What ICO says at https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/foi/freedom-of-information-and-environmental-information-regulations/public-authorities-under-foia/ may be relevant: Schedule 1 may not list an organisation in the way you expect. For example, within the education sector, the school itself is not the public authority. That falls to the governing body of a school, further education institution or university.

[OTOH :) ] Yes, there are obvious signs of 'rotating' deliveries, ie skipping some days, as at https://www.royalmail.com/service-update. I think they may have amended their criterion for reporting of Delivery Offices affected-- only three in the latest lists -- to now just "the offices most affected". (And several long-overdues, including last week's Eye)

Indeed. Details at https://www.gov.uk/find-licences/street-collection-licence and then https://www.met.police.uk/advice/advice-and-information/cc/charity-collection-licensing/street-collection-licences/ (particularly the "During collection" section). Then try going through the https://www.met.police.uk/ar/applyregister/ccl/met/apply-for-charity-collection-licence/ application questionnaire as if you were Cityhive London, remembering that you're not a registered charity.

Has anyone been able to see a GP at the TJGP practice this week? According to https://my.askmygp.uk/?c=G85132#/staffAvailability (copied here) there's not even one of their locum GPs available, just nurses or nurse practitioners. Have GPs from the Extended Primary Care Service (EPCS) been filling in? (If you do go to the webpage you need to click on the top menu to move from All Sites (whatever that means) to Tessa Jowell)

He's done quite well in the Dulwich Parkrun from time to time too. :-) https://www.parkrun.org.uk/dulwich/results/athletehistory/?athleteNumber=105316

When I've seen them it's one guy trundling a large bin along the road, into which he empties our small bins. Having wads of newspaper coming out with the rest and having then to extract them looks to me like unwelcome and unnecessary trouble for them. It seems to me anyway rather like an unnecessary complication on all sides. If I weren't using compostable bags I think i'd rather be dealing with just a maybe messy bin, without any additional messy newspaper.

By my reading you don't seem to be doing wrong: newspaper maybe ok to line the bottom of the bin, but not collected. I think they're, understandably, warning specifically against the use of any bags or wrappings other than the compostable ones. I use a kitchen caddy as well, and typically use a thicker more robust plastic bags, and decant the contents into a Lidl 15l compostable one before transferring to the outdoor one. I did once find that if kept for very many months the compostable bags, source unremembered, are likely to start splitting of their own accord. More recently a box of 5l ones I tried from Poundshop I found prone to tearing when detaching them from the roll by the time I was near to the end of the roll.

The Denmark Hill bin turns up on the Southwark advice page (where they include batteries) at https://www.southwark.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/recycling/recycling-centres/waste-electricals#. Perhaps not local but maybe of use (my laptop battery comes in at 22cm): ‘Very small WEEE’ are items of waste electrical and electronic equipment that are less than 25cm on their longest side. "You must take back all items of ‘very small WEEE’ in store if your electrical and electronic equipment sales area is greater than 400 square metres including aisle, display and shelf space." https://www.gov.uk/electricalwaste-producer-supplier-responsibilities/take-back-waste-in-store That's from this thread: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/303055-light-bulbs-recycling-nearby/

The prohibition is only at particular times of day. Could your previous passages have been at other times? That said, I do recall seeing what I thought was criminal damage to the camera earlier this year.

I agree about its being an off-licence -- no licensee's name above the front door, and confirmed as a long-standing one by https://londonwiki.co.uk/LondonPubs/Camberwell/LordshipLane157.shtml. Attached is a Style& Wing ad from the Kentish Express of 1 May 1942, found in britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk.[removed. Can't find a way of stopping it being displayed within post.]

The NHS Electronic Drug Tariff, which is updated monthly, is viewable online. Here's the current version, opened at Part IIIA, professional fees: https://www.drugtariff.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/#/00859526-DC/DC00859454/Part IIIA - Professional Fees (Pharmacy Contractors). The basic fee in England for dispensing an item is shown there as £1.27. I see that £20 appears as the dispensing fee for medicines that aren't on the standard list of licensed medicines. The prices for the medicines themselves are in Parts VIIIA (standard licensed medicines) and VIIIB (unlicensed, etc). There's also a FAQ page https://faq.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/knowledgebase/article/KA-01473/en-us which partly explains the categories A, C and M that appear throughout the price lists. There appear to be some ongoing revisions to the reimbursement scales that I don't know anything about. There are obviously people actively in charge of what appears to be a large and complex system, which I also don't know much about. The current problems seem to me to be largely about ongoing wide shortages of a significant number of medicines. Why they've occurred and how they may be remedied I don't know. If anyone wants to research this I'm sure there will be be some competent commentaries somewhere on the web. I'd be glad myself for pointers to any usefully well-informed and informative articles. (And please also include any detailed stuff about any systemic quirks or faults that might make some transactions unprofitable for pharmacists.)
