Burglary on Upland Road (Dec 4th 2015)

He said he was in the house at the time. -
Cycling infrastructure upgrades aren't designed to make people who have been commuting for 29 years feel safer (primarily). They're meant to open up cycling in London to people who aren't already cycling. "London not the shires" Yeah, it's London, not the shires, and there's not space for everyone to drive their SUVs around...

The end point for the route is being moved from one half block south of TCR tube to one block north of TCR tube. It's not getting shorter.

Upper St and whatever the street that goes down the hill in Hampstead aren't characterised by bigger shops, but they've been heavily colonised by chain stores.

Yes, but just because they own the property, it doesn't mean they're going to keep banging away as a curry house forever. There will be a certain price level at which they'll realise it's easier and more lucrative to rent it out to someone else or selling it to EvilPropertyCo of the British Virgin Islands. Going back to Seacow: I don't want to be a critic unnecessarily but the place was usually empty whenever I saw it and the fish and chips was no better than any of the other chippies in the area IMVHO

Mail not pushed fully through letterbox..
rabbitears replied to DulwichFox's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I'm not talking about size. I'm suggesting you might be able to get stuff that's being held in the flap to actually fall through into your house...if the flap is less grabby because the spring is not so tight. Royal Mail isn't going to stop using temps any time soon. -

Can you adjust the spring on your letterbox so stuff falls through easier? -
DHFC noise disturbance, evening match
rabbitears replied to beagle1's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I admit that I don't live near the ground but is it that bad? Surely it's only a couple of hours once or twice a week for a few months out of the year? I'd much rather live near DHFC than near a bar or takeaway like i used to (shudder). -

There's only one thing worse than being a crybaby on a forum and that's being a crybaby on another forum whining about a forum. If the wind's in the right direction you can hear singing and cheering from DHFC up by JAGS and that. -

There's perfectly good buses that dole moles like him should be using.

deliveroo drivers using public parking space as own

There's no restriction on what kind of motorbikes have to be parked there, right? -

No deterrent or punishment. Do you think little 14 year old knife carrying "scumbags" spend a lot of time analysing sentences handed down by Magistrates Courts? Do you think they're very susceptible to the deterrent effect of sentencing? What recent sentences for knife crime are you aware of? (No after the fact internet searching allowed).

I agree with most of what you said but as a former teenage boy, we weren't buggering around with knives to whittle wood. I don't agree that it's a new phenomenon: "razor gangs" were a moral panic in London almost 100 years ago!

"Sorry, but how many kids stabbed this year in London? and it's not a problem? One is too many. I'm shocked at the apathy. " I don't think there's apathy, just a bit of dissent against the "zomg kids are tooling up and stabbing each other like never before" proposition. (And to be fair I don't think anyone is really saying that. One of the problems on this thread is that people are speaking past each other: one group thinks the other is saying the sky is falling, while the other group thinks the first is suggesting that a few stabbed kids is just normal schoolboy high jinks). Fwiw I went to a snooty school ages ago and a bunch of us went through a phase of carrying knives. (As an aside, you can tell how snooty it was because the fashionable knife to have was an Opinel - that's right, a premium French brand that you bought on your annual holiday to France...). At another school I went to one kid stabbed another.

The legal risk of having a personal video camera pointed at your own car or bike is practically zero, surely?
