I'll save any further clue until I've heard from the morning shift, assuming they survive the night.

No, No.

> Yes-I came over all curmudgeonly It's a bit difficult to even moot the point that sweetie giving and receiving isn't necessarily inherently good, isn't it? Now a gift of home-grown veg, that I really would think of as kind.

Nope.

Just seen this. Sorry for the delay. And my clue is ... Some day my ship will come.

> So I took some photos and made sure the photo I wanted to transfer was in the same folder...still no sign of it back in the camera though. Do the filenames follow the naming convention that your camera uses?

> Portishead sounding just brilliant Nugger. I'd have watched if I'd known they were on, or even Beth Gibbons on her own. I don't suppose anyone's got a recording ...?

Don't be a Hush House Harrier, HonaloochieB. Get on down there with your bagpipes, pedal drum and nose flutes and make the vibe.

According to http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations/SRC/details.html (see Station Map) there are only two working platforms, one for each direction. You're presumably asking about a weekday. Today there are trains direct to East Croydon. http://www.southernrailway.com/your-journey/plan-your-journey/live-running-information/EDW/departures/

Can you monitor your own meter for a while, with the internal stopcock shut? How can a contractor have a suspicion of a leak before that test is done?

I think any further feedback will be very welcome. At the moment I can't tell whether it's a case of a genuine contractor and inadequate information systems, or a pretty sophisticated con, from someone with probable inside knowledge.

That's worrying. I'm glad he managed to evade them. Were they on the bus? Had he been using a phone or displaying anything they might be after?

It's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon.

John Ruskin lived a lot of his childhood in Herne Hill. See an early chapter of his Praeterita for details.

Was this at the Lewisham terminus?

From the Ingredients details on the Boots website pages for these two products: Butter London Nail Laquer. 3f nail lacquertea queen Ethyl Acetate, Butyl Acetate, Isopropyl Alcohol, Nitrocellulose, Adipic Acid/Neopentyl Glycol/Trimellitic Anhydride Copolymer, Trimethly Pentanyl Diisobutyrate, Triphenyl Phosphate, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Diacetone Alcohol, Citric Acid, Dimethicone, Benzophenone-1. May contain: C1 77000, CI 77163, CI 77499, CI 73360, CI 17200, CI 15880, CI 15850, CI 47000, CI 47005, CI 19140, CI 77520, CI 77019, CI 77491, CI 77891, CI 26100, CI 14700 Max Factor Glossfinity Nail Polish Butyl Acetate, Ethyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Adipic Acid/Neopentyl Glycol/Trimellitic Anyhydride Copolymer, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, Isopropyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Bentonite, Sucrose Acetate Isobutyrate, Acrylates Copolymer, Mica, N-Butyl Alcohol, Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer, Benzophenone-1, Silica, Dimethicone, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Trimethylpentanediyl Dibenzoate, Alcohol Denat, Polyvinyl Butyral, Alumina, Tin oxide, [+/-CI77891, CI77000, CI77491, CI77266, CI19140] I'm wondering what the perceived difference between the two is. Is it the n-butyl alcohol that's the main culprit? Most of the other ingredients they seem to have in common.

Another recourse might be to apply to the DVLA for details of the car's registered keeper: http://www.dft.gov.uk/dvla/data/relinfo/howtorequest.aspx. If obtained, you could then pursue damages personally. I don't know what your duty of disclosure to your insurers might be in any circumstance.

> As a share owner I hope we follow the lead of the communty run pub in Cowden Pound in Kent. One ale. Nothing else on draft. There is presumably scope for getting advice and information from other community pubs, such as those here: http://www.plunkett.co.uk/whatwedo/currentcooperativepubs.cfm. It looks as if the Ivy may be the first co-operative city pub; if so, perhaps a really ground-breaking experiment. I see there's a forum on the sub-site too. I'm not sure to what extent registration there is intended for Plunkett member managers or shareholders, any co-op managers/shareholders, or anyone interested. Having looked at the Ivy share prospectus, I don't know what Plunkett Foundation Rules are and haven't seen any: perhaps contained in one of the advice or guidance documents on their website? Nor can I find the Ivy's own online society rules, that the prospectus also refers to. I'm not a subscriber, btw, just an interested observer. I dare say this is all WIP.

There are two licences for the Bishop on the on-line register at present, 836635 of January 19 2012 and 840980 of May 08 2013. They're at http://app.southwark.gov.uk/licensing/LicPremisesGrantedResults.asp?TypeDesc=Premises%20Licence&RegisterType=LPG&TradingName=Bishop&batch=5&submit=Continue. They each contain these conditions: 288 - That the CCTV system installed upon the premises shall be maintained in good working condition and operable at all times 299 - Tha Two(2)SIA Door Supervisors shall be sited at the entrance to the premises on Fridays and Saturdays to control the entry and leaving the premises. 342 - That an appropriate level of lighting shall be installed to assist in the Prevention of Crime & Disorder. The lighting units are to be installed to the internal and external parts of the premises. 343 - That all staff are to be trained in Risk Management, applicable to the Prevention of Crime & Disorder. 345 - That the lighting and security shall be maintained in good working order at all times > and no, I never heard from the Bishop, despite asking quite a few times for feedback/ whether the CCTV images could be used etc. Examining those is the police's responsibility, isn't it? Though I suppose any pub manager has a general responsibility to his customers to help stop known-of sneak thieves from being on his premises. Oddly, neither of them contains this condition, which I found in the first licence I looked at for comparion, that granted to the Plough on November 27 2012. 289 - That recordings taken by the CCTV system installed upon the premises shall be kept and made available for inspection by authorised officers for a period of thirty one (31) days ; though I hope and presume that they are similarly retained and available at the Bishop.

The URL of the live departures page for ED station has recently changed, btw. It's now www.southernrailway.com/your-journey/plan-your-journey/live-running-information/EDW/departures/.

If you really do want to submit it through an immigration law practitioner, LadyDeliah is an officially registered one, and local. If you're in a hurry, I believe the advice about making an application in person is probably still relevant. I'd hope that's the case, given that you'd be paying a ?375 premium, but I've no idea what current practice is, or what any gain would be. Regardless, I note from paras. 3.3 and 3.2.4 of the Partners casework guidance available at http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policyandlaw/IDIs/chp8-annex/ that "The applicant must also not have overstayed by more than 28 days at the date of application." So I really would, to best avoid further delay and complication, try to submit something that's legally recognised as a formal application before you have totted up 28 days of overstay. I don't read anything you've said above as constituting "exceptional circumstances" of the type they specify in 3.2.4a. Actually, I rescind that last paragrph. It may well be the case that the Family members transitional arrangements section, http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/policyandlaw/IDIs/idischapter8/ applies. I've not checked what they may say about the effects of overstay.

I think it's E.Tyer. (As a reality check: zero Fyer marriage records found in FreeBMD for 1920-1940.) The first E Tyer marriages found after 1918 are: Mar 1924 Tyer Amy E = Goodwin Bethnal G. Mar 1938 Tyer Louise E = Dickenson Gateshead Jun 1938 Tyer Eugenia E = Edwards Deptford Sep 1946 Tyer Eugenia = Lytton Dover To do any serious tracking you'll want her forename.

> Hmm..and I've just come home to find a drum abandoned by the bin outside my home. Disposable drums for giving to guests at parties and celebrations? What a spiffing idea. > the distraction of dozens of joggers' arses pertly emoting all the way up the side of the Rye. Your pathetic fallacy is showing.

maxash, just to mention a Radio 4 programme on BPD this week: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01sm6s0. I've not heard it myself yet, but it looks interesting.
