  1. > "We have now met with Concordia Health, who have given their assurance that delivering the highest and safest quality of care to their patients is their first priority. We will continue to monitor the situation and meet with Concordia Health to make sure that this remains the case." ??? As a company the first and legal priority is shareholders' profits.
  2. Don't worry, it's all in hand.
  3. When you get to my age 69 is just a memory.
  4. Or look at it this way... If you're over 35 then you are more than half dead already. MacRoban The cheerful
  5. If it's big and sort of round, and deep and flat at the bottom, and with steep sides. Do you mind if I make a suggestion? Don't dig there, dig it elsewhere.
  6. Three score plus ten, divided by two.
  7. I've not been able to find a reference to our MP criticising the increase in taxation for the less well-off members of our East Dulwich community.
  8. Andyng, are you a buy-to-let person trying to sell?
  9. With a CV like that you should easily be able to shift your box of unsold singles on Northcross Road market.
  10. Does a GP now get paid the same for a phone consultation or an in-person consultation? [P.S. I think that quotation from the 1970s is wrong. Shouldn't it be: "When it comes to binary there are 10 types of people". At least, that's the way I remember it.]
  11. When a rat-catcher tries home deliveries.
  12. We're still some way off the baseline price of ?120k-?150k for an East Dulwich two bedroom plus box-room terrace.
  13. OK, blame it on Southampton getting the station wrong, but it's not the artists' fault that The Alliance is using a five year old out-of-date map. Really inspires confidence, in The Alliance, don't it?
  14. They have placed the station at the end of Railway Rise - a reasonable guess. I don't think many trains leave the Home Build Centre.
  15. > The original map itself was prouced by 'Graphics & Mapping' in the Regeneration Department of Southwark Council (see bottom right of map) Not very good, sre they, when they put East Dulwich Station in the wrong place.
  16. I've had the same landline for over 50 years. It has gone: GYP N-N-N-N (Gypsy Hill) TOW N-(N)-(N-10)-N (Townley: when the new exchange opened they subtracted 10 from the phone number) 693 N-(N)-(N-10)-N 01-693 N-(N)-(N-10)-N 020-693 N-(N)-(N-10)-N 0208-693 N-(N)-(N-10)-N Interesting stuff for a Sunday morning.
  17. No, it could mean the tenants might be evicted at short notice. [Note the two conditionals]
  18. Today I first saw the maps in the Southwark Alliance 2007 Annual report. The maps are on the web-site, but not the annual report. East Dulwich (SE22) is carved up. North of the railway line and Grove Vale is now classified as South Camberwell. The East Dulwich Estate Community Centre is to become a "hub for South Camberwell". It's interesting that these self-nominating people who are deciding our strategic future don't even know where East Dulwich Station is. If you're in SE22 but not in the "South West Sector" you are now in South Peckham (off-map to the East).
  19. Good one, ibilly99. I suspect some people here don't know about taking short positions. I would add the position of tenants of foreclosed buy-to-let landlords to your analysis. I note that the terms "savings ratio" and "GDP deflator" are now making brief reappearances in journalists' vocabularies. MacRoban
  20. Tidying and cleaning is grossly over-rated. A little grime helps babies and young children build up immunities.
  21. So Southwark Council does not own the freehold. A pleasing example of council incompetence.
  22. Window says the last weekend.
  23. I am surprised that no estate agents have closed yet and I'm still wondering which will be the first.
  24. karter's good advice from one year go in April 2007. Who followed it then instead of now wishing they had?
