  1. To be honest, it's about time housing dropped to realistic levels
  2. we were looking at a flat near the harbour around Portsmouth and that was the same - basically made of wood. Was put off by the lack of durability (as well as the excessive price for a wooden structure)
  3. brilliant! Thanks all
  4. I've just organised the office Summer Step Challenge - so now I'll be organising walks and motivating people, which I'll enjoy. There is an organised one for Diabetes UK which started today and you could join if you fancy it? https://www.diabetes.org.uk/Get_involved/Fundraising-events/million-step?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI45nIuMb-2wIVirXtCh0RugxyEAAYASAAEgJnlvD_BwE
  5. It says about three weeks - is this realistic? It's twice the price to have a fast track and I have six weeks before I go...
  6. It's a great project - thanks for keeping it highlighted. WE sent some over via Amazon - it was really easy :-)
  7. How much free time?
  8. I think two males might fight but you could check that out online. We had a family of GPS and they were ok, but maybe because they grew up together - it might depend how old yours are. Rabbits make great friends for GPs too.
  9. SpringTime - that is very disturbing.
  10. There's lots online. Just google - how to look after guinea pigs. They like living with each other - they're very friendly - don't keep them outside in winter and when they are outside, they like a run so they can play on the grass but need to be safe from predators who can dig under the edges of the run. they like fresh hay and straw and a water bottle. Lots of dandelions and other green things, and carrots especially.
  11. ditto! The point is, no one seems to have been involved at the selection stage. I would easily be able to circulate this and get a variety of styles and a broader choice. It seems to have been signed sealed and delivered in a pretty uncollaborative way.
  12. There is nothing wrong with people asking questions and to be called vindictive for doing so is just a bit bullish.
  13. Perhaps the funding is provided by "Our project partners are: Southwark Council / Network Rail / Dulwich Festival / Dulwich Outdoor Gallery"
  14. interesting that there are no answers from the organisers
  15. have you reported this to Transport for London? They own the Oyster readers
  16. I wonder who selected those shortlisted? I'd have preferred to be consulted earlier in the process of selection
  17. Likewise, Sue. That's the stance I took.
  18. that is actually a wonderful idea and would celebrate her legacy perfectly.. I was a bit put off having lettering or pop art and was hoping for something meaningful.....
  19. yes - fair enough. sorry to react, it just really bugs me because they are our children and so easily turned into numbers.
  20. Eugh. just the thought makes me feel nauseous. I don't like slugs at all at the best of times.
  21. It's a moot point as whether there in an improvement or not, it's no comfort to the families of the victims. The fact is that it is still happening is THE point. And why are you comparing London to New York? It's not a bloody competition.
  22. We use egg shells you can also use sand, as it's quite sharp adn they won't want to cross it. Some plants repel slugs so you could plant rosemary as well. Or copper wire...it gives them a shock so they won't go over it.
  23. we have a family of blackbirds and squirrels in the tree and a robin comes down when I'm doing the garden. A pair of wood pigeons come and visit sometimes. Also have a fox run through the garden (it's his normal pathway) and a couple of cats - pretty quiet and peaceful.
