  1. The report of it happening at work too sounds odd, unless you're relying upon some sort of cloud thing for your personal files. So does the reported difference between outcomes when logged in or out. But I'd be mildly surprised if clearing your browser's memory cache (NOT the same as Browsing History, which is simply a list of URLs) and maybe cookies (at least those for eastdulwichforum.co.uk) didn't resolve it. Or for diagnostics try another type of browser, if you have one installed or feel like doing do. Or using a different user account on your home machine.

  4. > I'm frankly incredulous that after all this time no-one's actually become exasperated enough to stake it out. :D > I'd have had the longs lens out and cranked the Canon to 6400 ISO months ago! Wait for the next batch, dust for fingerprints and photograph. If you find any prints common to many of the bottles, voila.
  5. By Jove, you're right.
  6. From the previous thread: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,816118,page=7 [p.7]> After a few sips of one of the dark ones I cam confirm it's definitely urine. [p.8]>Came across council guy clearing up a nest of bottles just near crawthew. Said they were >definitely piss containers - taxi drivers main suspects.

  7. I don't know if anyone can answer that question without knowing what conditions, if any, were contained within his deceased cousin's will. That's something for her executors to deal with and tell you about. You may get some more informed advice from a specialised forum such as Usenet uk.legal.moderated newsgroup. But all such advice is without any responsibility or guarantee.
  8. Even lunatics pay their leccy bills.
  9. > Tourette's - or 'speaking in tongues' That's glossolalia, which I don't think has made it to disease status. There's not even a DSM-IV entry for it, whereas Tourette's is there and in ICD-10.
  10. There are some other possibilities for Victoria connections that may be worth bearing in mind, such as using Tulse Hill, Streatham Common or West Norwood. Your optimal choice may well depend on your exact time of travel. But of the limited examples I've looked at so far, it is possible, at least at some times of day, to get from East Dulwich to Victoria in 29 minutes via Tulse Hill and Herne Hill, or in 35 minutes via Streatham Common. The connecting trains go through Peckham Rye as well, of course. The times I've looked at are from the National Rail Journey Planner for journeys on Tuesday 11 December, ie after the timetable change.
  11. It does seem to be something of a great adventure. The station map at http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations/BFR/details.html shows only platforms 1 and 2, and the live departures board also accessible there shows all trains leaving from one of those, apart from the Kentish Town ones, which appear to be leaving from platform 5.

  13. The recent successful small claim case that got lots of publicity http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-20068927 didn't get to court. The company settled.
  14. > We have TPS and are opted out of the electoral roll but still our details were got hold of from somewhere. The unedited edition of the 2011 electoral register for Dulwich and West Norwood -- which I believe contains most of what we call East Dulwich -- went permanently missing from Dulwich reference library some time in 2011.
  15. Thread (Nov.2007): East Dulwich Garden Centre - possibly replaced with flats: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,63633 I've not looked up the outcome or developments.
  16. So what's your conclusion, Woodrot? Definitely misuse of your old address by someone who got the information of your move from a Royal mail employee; or maybe someone else, maybe even from the same flats, who knew of your move?
  17. Becoming cat or dog food might be more acceptable to some here. I don't know how weird cats or dogs would need to be to partake, or how weird they might find it. They can be quite picky can't they?
  18. > Some people are scared of food that DOESN'T come in a box. Reminds me of this piece of modern-day half-joking phobia, from Woman's Hour, 29 October and 3 November: interview with an author of Cook on a Shoestring. Interviewer first: "fish ... but it is very expensive. Is there any way of getting round that?" "Well what I tend to do is buy whole fish." "Now that sounds a bit scary." "It does sound a bit scary but, I mean, you're paying for a premium if someone's preparing it for you ... filleting, especially a round fish, is very very straightforward." [interviewer, laughing] "That's not so sure." "It _is_ straightforward. You just need a good knife ... something that people often don't have in their kitchen, so go and invest in a decent knife, fillet your fish, or get your fishmonger to do it. Take the bones home ..." http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p010d2x7. Piece starts at 26'18" in.
  19. I dreamed I saw St Augustine just by the processed peas.
  20. A search on her name, Tracy Thier, brings up a Wikipedia article on Beltwood House which concludes: "In November 2011 the property was again put on the market...". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beltwood_House There's a photograph of it here: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2254261/.html
  21. Here's an account of the sentencing: http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool-news/local-news/2012/11/16/judge-tells-christopher-mcgee-georgia-varley-paid-with-her-life-for-your-actions-100252-32247466/2/. There's a good cross section of readers' comments too. There are several other reports in that paper, each with links to some of the othrs. Here's one. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/2012/11/07/friend-of-tragic-wirral-teen-georgia-varley-tells-court-of-her-final-hours-100252-32180383/ I find it difficult to know what to make of the sentence without having seen all the video evidence. I do wonder whether the knowledge that there _was_ a death might possibly be an influence on the assessment of the level of risk of the guard's action; but I really don't know. I wouldn't in any case be surprised to see an attempt to appeal against at least the sentence. It's also very difficult to make comparisons, but here are some details of sentences in other convictions on the same charge. These I found from online press reports.. I wasn't able to find this degree of analysis in any of the online sets of official statistics. 2008, 3.5 years, DP Johnson, Roofing contractor. Homeowner died day after work done, from CO fumes from a boiler that now had no effective flue after chimney rebuilding. 2011, D Bell, pub landlord, repeated failure to ensure a cellar door secured. A customer fell into it, and was found dead there three days later. Two years. 2006, "hands on" company director, often worked on factory floor. Worker killed using a machine, one of three whose safety cutouts had been disabled on installation. Mitigating factors led to two years, suspended. Court of Appeal replaced this with 15 months immediate. 2012 Gas fitter incorrectly secured flue when installing domestic boiler. 3 years. 2003 Misra and Srivastava, two SHOs. Negligent post-operative care of a patient led to death from SA infection. Each, 18 months suspended. 1998 Hospital doctor administered adrenaline injection, against strong advice of three colleagues, to a Px in intensive care after septic shock. Px died from a heart attack. 6 months suspended. 2004 Narendra Sinha, Locum GP administered gross morphine overdose. 15 months. [Edited: para.3 "the jury's assessment" -> "the assessment"]

  23. > fireworks used to be let off at midnight every week - I think it was on a Saturday night. Oh yes, I remember that. I think it came from somewhere pretty near the station.
  24. > Harsh? I think so. The prosecution? The charge? The verdict? The sentence?

His name is Prof Eamonn something. The Goldacre blog is here: http://bengoldacre.posterous.com/irish-miscarriage-case. According to the Irish Times article he links to, http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2012/0910/1224323797477.html dated 10 September, Eamon O?Dwyer is a professor emeritus. The article does not mention any paper by him. It concludes: [start quotation] Prof O?Dwyer and a panel of speakers also formally agreed a ?Dublin declaration? on maternal healthcare. It stated: ?As experienced practitioners and researchers in obstetrics and gynaecology, we affirm that direct abortion is not medically necessary to save the life of a woman. ?We uphold that there is a fundamental difference between abortion and necessary medical treatments that are carried out to save the life of the mother, even if such treatment results in the loss of life of her unborn child. ?We confirm that the prohibition of abortion does not affect, in any way, the availability of optimal care to pregnant women.? In a statement, Prof O?Dwyer also said no treatment should ever be withheld from a woman if she needed it to save her life, even if that treatment resulted in the loss of life of her unborn child.
