Perhaps neighbours would be happy to let you use any spare capacity in their blue bin the day before collection.

What is the actual wording of the body of the letter?

If we are going to protect our four-hour standard, we need to be clear that it is a promise to sort out all urgent health problems within four hours, but not all health problems, however minor. As Professor Keith Willett, NHS England?s medical director for acute care, has said, no country in the world has a standard for all health problems, however small, and if we are to protect services for the most vulnerable, nor can we." https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2017-01-09/debates/A0C1CB51-3E77-4FD0-87D9-AD36C2C11CE5/MentalHealthAndNHSPerformance

The map's author, Matt Brown, did comment, on the same page: "I didn't really use any old maps, as none exist until Tudor times. It's a combination of many, many resources. I started by drawing the river system, which is well known and little changed from ancient times. I then plotted the Roman roads, using reference material from the Museum of London and other sources. The place names come from a variety of sources. I used the Domesday Book as the backbone, supplemented with references from British History Online and other scholarly publications. In most cases, you'll find variations on the place name, as names changed over the centuries, and were given different spellings. I've generally gone for the earliest known appellation. I've also been writing about the etymology and history of London for well over a decade, so it no doubt incorporates many of my own personal biases like any map." One of his other contributions is specifically about old London maps: http://londonist.com/london/oldmaps. One I found myself, an 1810 version of late Anglo-Saxon London proper, is at http://www.antique-maps-online.co.uk/london-2912.html or http://www.bl.uk/onlinegallery/onlineex/crace/l/007zzz000000001u00006000.html and gives a starker impression of the reality. http://opendomesday.org/place/TQ3376/peckham/, for example, reports just four households in Peckham, and twenty nine in Camberwell. The Oxford Dictionary of British Place Names (available online via Southwark Libraries site) is a bit disappointing on more recent London district names -- no entry, for example, for any of the first three I checked, Colindale, Colliers Wood, and Nunhead.

"In 2011, we put together a map showing the London area in Anglo Saxon times (roughly speaking, 500-1066AD). It's pieced together from many resources, showing our guess at the roads, rivers, forests and marshland that characterised the region. The main purpose was to highlight the many villages, hamlets and farmsteads whose names are still part of modern London. For example, the map shows 'Wemba Lea', the land belonging to a local chieftain by the name of Wemba. We know nothing about Mr Wemba, yet his name is familiar to millions, perhaps billions, through its continuation into our own times as Wembley. Similarly, Croydon is a corruption of Crog Dene, which meant something like 'valley of the crocuses'." http://londonist.com/2014/01/anglo-saxon-london-map-updated

Try this?

Even the wikipedia copy has the same typo, more than once. https://la.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecce_Romani It gets quite exciting in Lectio V. Who's the big girl's blouse who escapes up a tree when a wolf arrives and the girls call for help? Is it quiet Marcus, or laddish Sextus? Iam legite ...

Garum's off.

A driver can sometimes be guilty of careless driving, or worse, even if his victim is a drunk pedestrian and also at fault: as for example in this case: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2397909/Drunk-pedestrian-knocked-killed-car-heard-quiet-hybrid-vehicle-approaching.html. He would still have been culpable if the victim had been another driver or rider. Conversely, a driver unavoidably hitting a pedestrian who enters his path without warning, is not necessarily at fault: cf for example the case of the poor woman who crossed in front of a lorry in Peckham High Street a year ago: http://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/driver-blameless-road-death-peckham-pensioner/

I checked with ED PH, who replied: "I'm afraid we don't really do screenings on demand as such. We sometimes do one-off screenings of certain film, but it's not the easiest thing to get. However we do have a partnership with ourscreen , a platform that allows anyone to programme a screening, and if enough tickets are sold, then the screening goes ahead. You can find more details about how it works here . I have had a look for *Public House* and they don't seem to have it in their catalogue yet, but they are very receptive to suggestions and if you drop them a line they might be able to source it for you." I thought it would be best to check first with the film makers whether there would be any availability (?format) problems. The automated response says they only check their email sporadically now, so there may be a wait. I'll be back when I hear from them.

It's certainly not the case that only roads in CPZs can be considered as being under parking stress. The introduction to the parking stress survey at http://www.2.southwark.gov.uk/downloads/download/4183/parking_stress_survey_data explains that a parking stress (ie occupancy rate) figure of more than 85% was conventionally used as a criterion for determining whether a creating a CPZ might be merited. And Southwark's Residential Parking Survey Methodology distinguishes CPZs and unrestricted areas in its examples of calculations of parking stress.
