If you do go to the Genius Bar, maybe you could get the genius to write up all the issues. Useful evidence if you try the letter before action / claim route. I appreciate that following through with a claim is probably time you could more profitably sorbs wirking though. Bad luck.

MPs debated this petition in Westminster Hall yesterday. The highlights start 24 minutes in to this edition of Today in Parliament: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b85m2c Sounded like a largely under-informed debate, with vague conclusions that sentencing guidelines might have already been reviewed to take emotional impact into account. General comments that there aren?t many prosecutions for pet theft in the first place. Bob Stewart MP made the interesting observation that there used to be an Act dealing explicitly with the stealing of dogs, passed in 1770, with severe penalties. It was repealed by the Theft Act 1968.

Happy Freelancer Day

I?ve recently heard that over-enthusiastic use of stimulants can bring on an urgent need to open the bomb bay. There?s also a rumour / maybe urban myth that Charlie is sometimes cut with laxatives. Perhaps the poopertrator had a chemically accelerated metabolism?

If these online petitions had an option to register an objection to the motion proposed, I would firmly object to this one. We have theft laws. We have animal cruelty laws. If someone steals a dog, handles a stolen parrot, or causes distress to a stolen gerbil, they can be prosecuted right now without need for further legislation. This petition achieves nothing but a waste of valuable legislators' time. Please stop distracting our MP's with things that have zero chance of making any positive change in the world.

Which road / part of ED are you, OP? I can hardly begin to imagine the journey. You leave for your destination, presumably imagining you?ll arrive without need for an unplanned movement en route. At some point you must realise the train is in the station. You quicken your pace, grit your teeth, gird your loins. Then just as you?re speedwalking up OP?s road, you know it?s actually happening. Nowhere left to go, you nip into the garden, hide behind the bin and pray for a Bristol Type 4. So where did this journey start? And how far could the mystery curler have been from the next safe and available porcelain throne? We need to know!

If you ignore the request to apply for retrospective approval on the chimney breast, what are they going to do? Would they seriously take court enforcement action to make you rebuild one, at a time when they are scratching around for funds to cover social care etc? Same with the chasing in of pipes. Although in that case, if you change your bathroom to add some boxing, I do wonder how their inspector would know whether he Boxing actually concealed working pipework or not.

There?s been a new development: no-one is ringing my doorbell at night. The thing is it?s actually broken. I?m wondering if I should replace it, as it feels like I?m missing out on the new trend. As for the bins, I?ve had to call the council now. Disinterest in them has become so extreme that even Veiola didn?t want to disturb them this week.

Where is all the freelancing at here then? All the good freelancers I follow on Instagram post from places like Stoke Newington.

That's a great picture.

You?re apparently talking about an adult (someone 18 years old or over) who has some issues, but those issues are not severe enough to stop them successfully booking travel and a visa waiver. So far it sounds like you?re trying to stop an adult from making an error of judgement: you can?t akways stop people from making mistakes. You seem to be saying the social worker is supportive. If you strongly feel that?s not appropriate, you could speak directly to the Adults Social Care section of the council. Of course they can?t discuss the person?s case with you, but they can listen to your concerns and you can follow up in writing to make sure they will actively consider what you?re worried about.

Gives a new meaning to ?100% vegan? ;-) rendelharris Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > fishbiscuits Wrote: > -------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > I'm never one to shy away from the elephant in > the > > room... is nobody suspicious of these > remarkably > > good "vegan burgers"? > > Hah!

Lovely tributes on yesterday?s Last Word: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b2mrcc Very few of us manage to live well enough to have such wide-ranging touching and affectionate anecdotes told of our lives.

Thanks, that helped me figure out the same problem. The steps that work for me are: 1. Resize image so it will fit (I use an app called Image Size, and make it so the longest dimension is 400 pixels) 2. Upload to Imgur 3. Click on the image (not the post). Copy link. 4. Paste the link into the forum post, in between the following code excpet use square brackets instead of normal ones: (img) (/img) If i'm being inefficient, perhaps someone will post a simpler way :)

Sorry I don?t know how best to specifically address that, other than to say that the Pepipoo website has been useful in the past. I have successfully appealed 3 parking tickets, but none for anything like your friend?s circumstances. The flip side is that I have had other tickets where Pepipoo simply confirmed I?d been had bang to rights! You have to pay for a subscription so worth bearing in mind it doesn?t make legitimate tickets go away - although it does show you how to really check if a ticket is legitimate, which quite often they are not. I guess your friend is already checking whether the other party?s insurance should cover ?parking charges?, that is if they stopped, have insurance, and are at fault. My sympathies.

Free parking. It?s just a small showroom at the back of the new Sainsbury?s. They do have a selection of popular frame sizes though, and can order stock in (you could also buy online but at least in-store collection avoids delivery charges).

Thanks for posting this, I have an increasing number of vegan friends so it?s good to know the places I can take them. I knew there was some controversy about a different vegan burger chain, because of animal testing on one of that other chain?s ingredients. So I thought I?d try to do a little research before suggesting this new ED place to my vegan pals. I have no idea whether or not the same issue affects VB?s ingredients, but what I did find out is that the testing done for the other chain was mandatory for authorities in the USA to approve the food for sale. So I don?t think there?s quite the moral dilemma that I had feared. Here?s a link to a report of the other chain?s public statement: http://vegnews.com/articles/page.do?pageId=9914&catId=1

IIt?s very generous of the neighbours to offer their bins for public use. My own are completely full right now, but nearby pavement bins are taking they strain :-)

HACAN?s latest report, released today, finds that he problem has indeed got worse in recent years in the ?Brockley corridor?. Here?s part of the summary: The area is heavily overflown, with typically 38 planes an hour audible to many communities. This could rise to over 40 during busy periods and over 50 in the hour between 6am and 7am (when planes land on both runways at Heathrow). The planes are typically at heights between 5,000ft in the Greenwich area to under 4,000ft at Clapham Common. Heights have changed little in the past few years.  Increased concentration of flights has taken place in recent years. More than ever flights are being guided through ?concentrated corridors? which means that particular communities are especially badly hit. We have deliberately used the word ?corridor? as the planes are not necessarily in a precise line but are within a corridor where they are audible.  The overall number of flights is much the same as when we last surveyed the area 10 years ago but this masks significant changes in certain places: - the number of flights in the east of the region has increased dramatically: daily flights in the Brockley corridor grew by 135 between 2011 and 2017; Greenwich saw an increase of 165 a day. - flights numbers in the ?southern corridor? ? which is focused on the southern runway ? have risen significantly - increased concentration has meant more flights for particular communities. We concluded many more planes are joining their final approach corridors further east than before and are more concentrated within those corridors. We also found evidence of increased night concentration Full report here: http://hacan.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Corridors-of-Concentration-Report.pdf

Who?d be a copper? Having to put up with neighbours complaining about snide comments shouted from time to time. Not to mention the intriguing ?money sign? harassment. I just don?t see why the boys in blue felt need to intervene at all.

Is that a blow-up doll in the passenger seat?

I hadn?t realised the Revolution was going to start in Peckham Rye Park. Were there a lot of ?Marxist maggots? round here to intimidate then? Or more likely, is this a bloke with about two brain cells to rub together, whose top achievement in life is getting some of his English middle class neighbours indignant? Someone needs to get out more eh? (and I don?t mean down the park)

Peckhamplex seems to have more audience participation than other places. It?s one of the joys of the place. Yesterday evening, there was sporadic clapping at heroic moments in Black Panther. I?ve previously noticed the same, even when they screened the Scottish Play. I don?t mind a bit of whispering and rustling, as long as no one has their mobile phone screen on. There were no antisocial mobile screens yesterday, but it is usually a problem at theatres and cinemas. Put it away!

It depends where the good chefs are working, and they do move. The chefs employ all the kitchen staff (possibly the waiters too?). When they have a disagreement with the restaurant owner or get poached, then suddenly the quality changes overnight. So to an extent you need to be wary of older reviews, and judge based on what you see on the day.

Cadbury's are already running adverts claining it's "Creme Egg Season". As if that's a real thing.
