The delete function there is just to undo your selection of a file for upload. I don't see much point in editing posts in order to save space. Use right click and View Page Source (or similar) in your browser, to see how small a proportion of the thread's file (as downloaded) is taken up by your actual words. On the server it may be even less. Attached files take up much more space. In any case, when I see deletions of For Sale items after their sale it just gets me wondering about the poster's integrity and what they may want to hide. Btw, expect this thread to eventually be moved to the About This Forum section.

RM do provide alternatives to personal collection from the delivery office, so in making your case it might be prudent to mention any drawbacks in those.

For the 95% of readers who don't have it to hand, it's a short article entitled "'I like the idea of my body as biomass': bright ideas for your afterlife - Our cemeteries are full, so how about becoming fuel (to heat a swimming pool) or having an augmented reality memorial?" It quotes BC, and helps outsiders by explaining that her '?Southwark Woods? refers to Camberwell?s old and new cemeteries', but is mainly a light nudge into a little more thinking about death and dead bodies. Southwark Library members can see it via Newsbank at http://infoweb.newsbank.com/signin/LondonBoroughSouthwark (search for hawthorn).

A screengrab of one figure, including a report of 47% of cars exceeding a 20mph limit by at least 5mph in the 2015 national survey sample, is attached. Melbourne Grove South probably stands out from these only in that it's been the subject of concerted skilled lobbying.

Any idea of what method he tried?

For a summary of the motivating factors, see also the short accompanying report submitted to the Cabinet member, downloadable from the Decision Details page http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieDecisionDetails.aspx?Id=6056, or get it directly: http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/documents/s66569/Report.pdf. The downloadable copies of the Strategy document at Burbage's link look to me identical in content. The smaller one has perhaps generally better colour contrast. Both versions have some examples of scrappy importation of graphics files. Some of the sources weren't at high enough resolution and contain compression artifacts, and there's occasional truncation (as in eg Appendix G).

> and trains are slower than what they were before getting into LB. It used to be 11 minutes journey time, iirc. Is that eventually going to be restored?

I've just noticed I have a copy of a similar but clearer FoI response from 2010: Following a stakeholder consultation conducted in 2007, we have implemented a change to bus stopping practices, removing the distinction between compulsory and request stops. It was found that most people using bus services in London do not distinguish between a request stop and a compulsory stop. The vast majority of passengers hail the bus if they wish to board and ring the bell to alight. We are gradually standardising stops so that they all use the compulsory flag (a red roundel on a white background). All stops in central London are now of this same design. The change effectively means that the onus is on the driver to stop if someone wishes to get on or off, and drivers should only pass a stop if they are certain that no-one wishes to board or alight. We did not publicise the change as research indicated that very few passengers would be changing their normal practice of hailing and ringing the bell.https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/buses_not_stopping_at_compulsory I generally try to be helpful with my body language, stepping away from the stop and looking elsewhere, if the one approaching isn't the one I want.

In case anyone thinks it's all mechanical, have a look at the short MRF clip 4 - Hand Sort (3.4MB) at https://www.veolia.co.uk/southwark/media/media/videos, where you can see workers removing all the (unrecyclable) plastic bags from the stream of paper and card, where they shouldn't have been at all.

I tried trundling my way through http://www.identifont.com/list?3+Century%20Gothic+27.30+1N2+1+43RG+2+SC+2+2GDG+2+3LFG+2+3ZS5+2+45OH+2+4ECP+2+3A9A+2+4LZU+2+4JFB+2+3N62+2+2BB6+2+495L+2+GB0+2+345H+2+3681+2+PRO+2+48R8+2+34YX+2+3D5R+2+MKX+2+F6+2+3376+2+3P2I+2+2RRV+2+2XZW+2+64F+2+2DQE+2+3A6L+2, a task imo likely to lead to mental collapse if carried on too long. A little before the end, still without any clear fit, my brain whispered to me to google on the title name + "album cover font", and I ended up at http://uchi.co.uk/blog/tag/the-revolution-will-not-be-televised/. From there, not even stopping for a cuppa, it was a quick hop, skip and jump to ITC Avant Garde Gothic at https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/itc/avant-garde-gothic/, and then to the Standard Medium version at https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/itc/avant-garde-gothic/std-medium/. I think that's it, though I suppose it's possible it could be one of the other variants shown there, which I've not checked. Please don't tell me I'm wrong.

Sir Tony Redmond, Chair of the Consumer Council for Water's London and South East Region, was interviewed on R4 World At One today. He seemed fairly confident, iirc, that the accounting was transparent and easily monitored, and that CCWater would be very much on the case if there was any breach of the undertaking not to tax the customers for the incompetence. What actual powers CCWater has, I'm not sure. It's governed by a string of Memoranda of Understanding, and they have a Vision, and Values; details of all of which can be found at https://www.ccwater.org.uk/. I should have a recording of the interview that I may check later - it'll also be at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08j99fr - but there'll doubtless be much more varied media coverage and comment over the day. Fines go to the Exchequer, don't they?

> Thank you. It's a Canon 600D with various lenses, not all Canon but all compatible. Commiserations. Do you have the lens and camera serial numbers? Without those or any other cogent evidence, it may not be easy to prove that any items are actually yours. I've looked at a sample 600D photograph online, and fortunately at least the camera's serial number is included in the Exif data. What the best strategy for use of this data, apart from passing it on to the police, if it's not already on one of the online peoperty databases such as https://www.immobilise.com, I'm not sure. I don't know whether publishing it now would increase your chance of recovering the items, but you could have a look at whatever Immobilise have to say about reporting it via their site.

In which direction?
