  1. I don't think they're fake brand. It reflects the scale of the problem. There is lots of fake fur available, which is a good thing.
  2. PETA do a lot of work re educating people about the cruelty behind Canada Goose costs - google it. There's lots of events and public information. It's sickening. https://www.peta.org.uk/action/spread-word-canada-goose-cruelty/ I'm really glad to hear of the decision you made today.
  3. We've had people collecting money, Jehovah's Witness (and not our neighbourly ones who we talk to as they are next door), selling flowers, selling superpacked food (he was persistant), strangers asking for money so they can get home, some guys saying they will help me fix my roof (they weren't planning on leaving easily either), one woman asking if she can take the things from my front garden (FFS - oh no, she didn't ask, but I asked her).... and so on. So, no. I don't answer the door and I won't let my kids either. Why should they have to deal with that? Quite happy to find out who they are and what they want. I know who my neighbours are when they come visiting so - no. what's wrong with that?
  4. we don't open the door to strangers - it rarely is good
  5. Don't underestimate the softer skills (sorry, office speak) that you will have been using - basically, you've been running a successful business and the reason to an employer that you're changing direction would be - commitment, stability, want to train/learn/ climb career ladder etc.... Have a look at this ad - this focusses on the same sort of thing. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?28,1897655 You're only 27? And you've run a business (small or not) and got kids etc. - you've been busy and the responsibility you show would be very attractive to an employer.....
  6. moving is generally good for you. resting is as well. it's a balance.
  7. the most un-community support group I have come across.
  8. I don't mind people going through my bins but I would object to leaving the rubbish all over the floor. That's just plain rude.
  9. the services know about him, know about the fire, know he doesn't want help - is their professional decision to leave him as is?
  10. I had a card from the postman, went to collect it from Silvester Rod and told they couldn't find it. Going to try again tomorrow, but not best pleased.
  11. wanting to help someone is admirable - finding the best way is a challenge - talking about them is a bit of invasion of privacy, don't you think? And I'm not referring to any particular post but the whole post - perhaps someone who talks to him might mention there's a forum where he's discussed. Maybe he'd be flattered, maybe he wouldn't care. Personally, I wouldn't like it.
  12. 37 to Brixton and then direct on the tube
  13. Stare
  14. nice one Pato! Happy New Year ;-)
  15. not actually a bad thing - I love Peckham and investment is welcome.
  16. I firmly resolve to do nothing complicated or difficult in the new year, but I only say that and, having said it realise I don't mean it
  17. If you had a traumatic experience, it's pretty certain that you can choose a CS for the second/ next. The choice was offered to me for my second and I felt fully supported and properly looked after at KCH. Counselling is great - if you think you need it - you do! Look around, find someone you work well with - move on if not. Bear in mind though, they are supposed to get much easier after the first one - and a CS is a pretty serious operation. Maybe you find that talking it through makes it all ok. Best wishes - do what you feel comfortable with.
  18. The future is actually pricing unnecessary private transport off the roads with a view to cleaning up the air..... so, people will think twice about driving the short distances where they could use alternate means. A correlation with improvements in public transport is essential.
  19. Ianr, why are you demeaning something Natty wants to gain support for?
  20. they drugged you? with what? Hope you're ok or will be soon (ego included)
