I think it's the fear of the disruption of NHS services, perhaps hospitals in particular, that seems to be a main driver of the campaigning for vaccination here. The disruption can be caused both directly, through admission of more patients, and then indirectly, through the spread to hospital staff and then other hospital patients. It's also the most vulnerable who die. The median age of the 417 Australian flu associated deaths reported so far this year is 85 (range 0-107)! In Australia there do seem to have been greatly increased flu admissions to their sentinel hospitals this year. The attached is from the latest full report, available on the same page as the summary.

You could always try a bit of surgery on the can to gain access; even buy a few of the type to experiment with first. Speaking of which, I'm thinking of trying to replace a few suspect capacitors on my PC's motherboard, after it ceased functioning without any obvious cause. But I'd prefer get some practice first. Does anyone have a derelict motherboard they don't want that I could use?

It looks to be an oscillator from the HC-49U series: http://www.dutchforce.com/~eforum/index.php?s=2e1b2f0b4cdbaa50b92f083a4a057de0&showtopic=980. They seem to be available for a pound or two: just search on HC-49U. The problem is finding one of the right frequency (and maybe other parameter values), but there are several distributors you can ask.

Just republish it here.

Some PMs never get read. If you want to test the system, and maybe reverse the trend, you can send yourself one.

Doesn't absinthe make the heart grow fonder?

[www.southwarknews.co.uk] "The new area will incorporate a water-play zone, as well as a sand pit complete with little diggers." There was a sandpit there in 1907 (see attached, copyright British Library). So how long has it been without one?

John, the attached 1894 snippet may be of interest. I've got the full article, which goes into the history as well, and several others of the period about the Rye and Park. There is an 1894 LCC pamphlet in the LMA catalogue, though it's said to be not in a fit condition for public access. But some plans for the development are viewable.

Have you asked the insurance company to explain the anomaly? Is it reproducible?

The link does work. It looks like a mini exercise in creating and writing up a survey, and really only does require two minutes or less. ;) curlylocks, I see that it doesn't allow repeat access. So if you've opened it and then retried later, clearing the surveymonkey.co.uk cookies will re-enable it.

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?

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.

> 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.

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.

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.
