  1. It looks as if maybe someone has wished to think it covered by DHFC's own premises licence. If it does come within that licence, my understanding is that then, by virtue of the latest Live Music Act 2012 regulations, no further permission, not even a TEN, would be needed, as long as there are less than 500 persons. See for example https://www.gov.uk/guidance/entertainment-licensing-changes-under-the-live-music-act#do-i-need-a-licence-for-music-entertainment or http://researchbriefings.parliament.uk/ResearchBriefing/Summary/SN06996#fullreport. Whether it does so in law or whether any opinions are known or have been sought, or what the council's licensing department view is, I don't know. "Premises" can include open areas, and I don't doubt that entertainments within the main stadium would come within the licence. But does it include a separately gated field? Did people actually use the DHFC bar? What would they have to do to reach it? Or were there any alternative arrangements for supply of alcohol? If it does fall within the DHFC premises licence, Chris Taylor is the Designated Premises Supervisor who has responsibility for the supply of alcohol and conduct on the premises. Note that the licence has specific conditions for a pitchside kiosk bar (373ff; 374 even prohibits broadcasting of amplified music from it) , CCTV recording, automatic sound level limiting (numbers 809, 846 and 847) and monitoring, etc. I don't think there's anything in the licence that seems to envisage its application to the astroturf area. But if it does so apply, it seems to me that there's plenty of scope for arguing that several conditions have been breached. If it doesn't fall within the licence, why hasn't Southwark licensing department intervened? Or can they say there is no licence required?
  2. The flyer actually refers to 10 September, but I assume this one is from the same promoters, Flex Drive Promotions. http://www.bizstats.co.uk/ltd/flex-drive-promotions-limited-10963463/. Dennis Newell and Julia Dennis also jointly own St Best Caribbean Ltd, activities 56103 - Take-away food shops and mobile food stands 56210 - Event catering activities, incorporated on 15 September.

    TV gone awol

    > havn't found anything really apart from trying a re-tune which I have done Did the retune report how many channels it was finding? From what you say, I'd assume close to none. If that's the case, you don't have an aerial extension lead handy (or an indoor aerial) do you? If so, try plugging that, on its own, into the aerial socket, and see if you pick up anything with that. I've found that a metre long lead is quite good enough to pick up at least some of the Crystal Palace multiplexes. Success with that would suggest that something's got at your aerial connection.
  4. I went and had a look on Sunday 13 August, a little before three, as it seemed noisier than even the usual stadium noise. It was actually coming then from the small practice pitch just west of the stadium, that's accessed by a gate where the path to Greendale begins. Does that bit belong to DHFC? The music was coming from a large PA system on the back of a van. There were several cars also on the site, and maybe a table or two, and there was a man with a "Steward" hi-vis waistcoat on the approach road. One of the posts barring the road currently doesn't have a padlock. There were two or three people seemed to be on their way there but I didn't get any clear idea of what was going on ... celebration, community or faith group I thought perhaps, and a bit late for a boot sale, but no real idea.
  5. > No, NO sympathy for the postman, I don't appreciate junk mail, > does the PO not understand they are proliferating a mountain of waste paper It's not the PO, it's Royal Mail. Has anyone told HMQ what's being done in her name? Though apparently you are able to opt out: https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/293/~/how-do-i-opt-out-of-receiving-any-leaflets-or-unaddressed-promotional-material/, on an all-or-none basis. Would there be anything important or interesting that you'd no longer get? Which stuff would you still get anyway, from private distributors?
  6. Do a google search on "Dulwich telephone exchange built" and select the Google Books East Dulwich Through Time hit.
  7. An afterthought. He could be checking London bike ads at http://www.bikeshd.co.uk/ or http://findthatbike.co.uk/search.php?searching=yes&s=&location%5B%5D=London. I hope btw that the police are aware there's a video. I'd hate to think they might be routinely NFAing the theft. And the original recording, if they need to access that, will likely only be available for a limited time.
  8. You could also have a quick scan of stolen London bikes at https://stolen-bikes.co.uk/locations/london/ and @StolenRide https://twitter.com/StolenRide.
  9. RPC, thanks for the reminder. I saw some pavement grinding on my walk to Peckham the other day. Not even the workman seemed to be wearing any protection. I'm personally much more alarmed by the thought of the possible effect of these -- if I have to pass them I usually run, at a distance, with breath held and mouth covered -- than I am by a passing smelly diesel vehicle. And I don't remember ever seeing anything to protect passers-by. So I resolved to start looking it up. The first thing I've lit on now, http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/cis54.pdf so far seems to confirm my fears: "Recent HSE-funded research has suggested that over 650 construction deaths from silica-related lung cancer occurred in Great Britain in 2004." So some heavy reading ahead, starting at http://www.hse.gov.uk/search/search-results.htm?gsc.q=stone%20cutting%20dust%20control; then on to the legal stuff.

  12. Jacqui254> So, I was shocked to receive my 'annual statement', thanking me Jacqui254>for my contribution which, over the last year had raised ....drum Jacqui254> roll....?13.81 [net of commission and VAT]. ?13.81!!! No mention from you or Sue of individual items, so I assume they don't appear on the statement. If there's any serious concern or interest I'd suggest that one person could apply for an itemised statement. Better still, for one showing all information about all the items which they had donated under the Gift Aid scheme. If the acounting system is up to scratch it should entail very little extra work for them. As well as being personal information, which one has a right to see, it can also be a very reasonable request. If your gift aid contributions in any tax year exceed your taxable income, you're going to be liable to pay the corresponding gift aid refunds yourself. Donors who've taken their gift aid contributions close to that limit might well want to be aware of their current potential liabilities for this, and maybe future, tax years. Ideally the information provided would show the current status (eg sold - gift aid claimed, in stock, no record, ...) of each gift aid item donated. Other web information-seeking possibilities: (1) Has this information already been sought from any charity? (2) What does the HMRC guidance for charities require of their bookkeeping?

Just in case someone searches online for the stuff, let's throw a few more keywords into the mix: Misdelivered Underhill East Dulwich SE22 5663 CROMAR Oxidised bitumen slab grade 9525 23kg keg 5 September 2017
  15. The email messages I get from the ward snt team have a standard sentence saying not to report incidents by email. I assume this is because they want it to go through standard central logging and action procedures. I think I'd class the theft as an incident. I understand that the ward team get forwarded details of stuff for their area coming in via 101 calls anyway. I assume that would be the case for all crime reports. I think there's also been a recent reorganistaion of responsibilities, which, iirc, may mean that the regular snt officers aren't doing the actual investigation work now. So perhaps your sil should just sit tight, in the expectation that someone will duly be in touch with him
  16. I'm not sure I believe the bit about the sirens blaring. "No more time wasted trying to access those awkward places where objects seem to be able to find with ease, just grab your Grab and Grip Reaching Tool, one of the most useful gadgets to have around the home.This handy lightweight and durable tool has a whole multitude of purposes from picking up litter to retrieving lost objects from behind cupboards with one simple motion." https://www.amazon.co.uk/ALUMINIUM-REACHING-MOBILITY-ASSISTANCE-GREEN/dp/B002R0005Q/ref=pd_sim_201_1

    Discuss it with them? Start off with a position paper perhaps, and take it from there. If you don't get close to agreement within a month or two, consider setting a deadline and default position.
  18. [Rethunk and removed thoughts on dial-up access] ... unless it _is_ possible to connect a phone modem to a dedicated broadband cable socket that's still providing a working phone service. Would a USB connection to your smartphone acting as modem be any better than wifi? Ask neighbours to share wireless access?
