  1. I know it's now a very peculiar opinion to think a pavement should be wide enough to be a pavement prior to being reported to admin I thought pavements should be for walking on. I'm so very weird .. I now realise thanks to the clever people in this thread that trees should be everywhere Bring on the middle of the road trees and the motorway middle slow and fast lane trees I was so silly ... Admin may have reason to ban me for my crazy views on mental illness and trees.

  3. Ummm I don't think Jamie Oliver is anti all sugar he's simply against the constant promotion of sugary products where there are alternatives. It's not the binary thing you see it as. I like him because he's very positive and he cares about what people actually eat. Sugar has its place in our diets in moderation. I've become a big fan of sweetners contrary to popular belief sheeple they are not harmful as a replacement for sugar . The anti sweetner thing causes me Rage especially when I get to a coffee shop or cafe and they don't have any sweetner !!!!! AGGGGGGGG
  4. Foxy One of the best ?250's I ever spent was for a skip to get rid of my shed contents. I realised every time I wanted something I thought I had in my shed I either couldn't find it or didn't have it it wasted hours of my time. Now I just buy what I need when I need it and use my shed to store tools and items which are of actual value. Cathartic
  5. that's hilarious I guess with the level of edumacation these young people get today anything is possible My best guess at why Sainsburys don't have young packers working at tills its that 99% of these young people in this country are simply incapable of packing bags as highlighted by Loz's experience and they don't want the potential damage to their customers impacting their reputation as mentioned there'd be a thread titled "Sainsburys packers destroyed my Christmas food". What a mad world we now exist in ..

Ah so your mental illness is having a laugh at other peoples expense. You are showing the uninitiated you are not really very nice. As I said much of humanity is mentally at some level or other. I?m no exception. If you believe you are an exception then that?s a true sign of it  Human Sheep following the leader .. There are some who shout loud about their mad views on trees the ?sheep? follow and become part of the madness. Just like the acceptance of pollution noise etc. This thread is about a HUGE tree which is blocking a pavement and restricting peoples? ability to use the pavement. In any sane world people of any logic would cut the bloody thing down reinstate the pavement and plant a new smaller variety of tree or tress which are more suited to the location. But noooooooo we get mental people who think it?s acceptable that a tree takes up 50% of the pavement .. And other mental people who are talking about another time on another thread .. for some weird purpose which can maybe only be explained by some form of craziness? Hilarious

We're all mentally ill at some level ie on the spectrum of insanity that's standard for most humans Report me to who ever you like your god you mummy your daddy you administrator your wife child friend or work mates.. If that makes you feel better I'm happy for you .. If mental illness has become your taboo that is interesting! Why do you see it that way? What makes you think raising it in that way would help those who are at the high end or the spectrum or the rest of humanity? Or have you simply had a knee jerk PC reaction to my saying an obsession with ALL trees being good is imo a mental illness? I guess I'm not allowed to say being mad about trees isn't in some way a mental issue ? Why ?

I'm not anti tress ! lol I'm anti BIG trees in the wrong places. I've said I'd rather 100's of smaller trees cherry blossom type rather that a few large monster trees which are a problem in many ways. As for fazer and pop you really are getting silly trying to intimidate / insult / belittle me as per previous attempts very sad. I hope you have a lovely Christmas enjoy the tree hugging and you tree mental illness where ALL trees are worshiped regardless. Take care ..
  9. I've tried everything Pressure washing is a nightmare damages and the mould just spreads even more. The only guaranteed solution that always works for me is sika mould buster ?18 for 5ltrs which is then diluted it's a bargain I use it in a pump sprayer on a warm day with no wind Works a treat on patios paths roofs walls fencing and brick work. Wish I'd found it years ago http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/351563958922?lpid=122&chn=ps&adgroupid=36084540643&rlsatarget=pla-271887750156&adtype=pla&poi=&googleloc=9045878&device=t&campaignid=698615505&crdt=0&ul_ref=http%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F710-134428-41853-0%252F2%253Fmtid%253D1673%2526kwid%253D1%2526crlp%253D159563030297_563391%2526itemid%253D351563958922%2526targetid%253D271887750156%2526device%253Dt%2526mpre%253Dhttp%25253a%25252f%25252fwww.ebay.co.uk%25252fitm%25252flike%25252f351563958922%25253flpid%25253d122%252526chn%25253Dps%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526googleloc%253D9045878%2526poi%253D%2526campaignid%253D698615505%2526adgroupid%253D36084540643%2526rlsatarget%253Dpla-271887750156%2526gclid%253DCNSYieTKjNECFRA8GwodCIwMsg%2526srcrot%253D710-134428-41853-0%2526rvr_id%253D1144146911664

  11. My Christmas tree logic has changed over the last few years. I now buy a tree as early as possible The logic being if I'm going to pay ?50 for one I want to get as many days pleasure as possible :) I've not looked back since adopting this approach. Merry Christmas

Didn't you read the guardian article I linked to Here it is again https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/dec/01/trees-may-increase-air-pollution-on-city-streets I know ED is the guardian reading capital of the world so it must be the truth.. No?
  13. Well I've worked around most of Europe SE Asia and the east coast of the USA checkout packers are standard in most if the world's supermarkets especially during busy periods,. In the UK it's crap service as standard Imho It's probably because as seen above people here think it's not needed and most have not ever experienced it so are clueless.. Sad because the supermarkets make big money and don't spread any pay to many young people who would benefit from some pre Christmas paid work..

This was rejected. Probably too cheap. It really needs a big plan something costing ?500,000 + of local tax payer dosh.
  15. Tip I'm waiting until after new year they're super cheap by then :)
  16. It does make me angry here we are buying our Christmas food & what are the supermarkets doing to help us with the several hundred pound shop? Fook all ... Would be good to give a few youngsters some pre Christmas work bagging up at the checkout. Maybe it's down to the employment laws? Really Crap imho
  17. rendelharris Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > "With trees the air is suppressed at ground level" > - are you for real? Yes It's scientifically proven the air under the canopy of trees isn't a clear as the air above trees. Add to that the bird droppings sticky sap and leaves and you will start to see that tress are actually pretty dirty. They really belong in gardens parks woods etc where they do less harm to people. Also don't forget the damage that trees do to buildings undermining foundations and damaging drainage. Trees are trouble when they're planted in the wrong places. I'm happy to have lots of nice small trees with blossom . but do we really need these monster tress causing problems it's a nonsense .. imho

  19. What Southwark may do is close LL to all but Bus traffic to kill trade so that fewer people will be need to cross the road. That's standard Southwark logic .... where these issues become a problem . Be warned .. we're dealing with a council happy to destroy anything good to keep themselves busy and make our lives worst,.
  20. Also agree with some points in the Guardian article they make absolute sense. With trees the air is suppressed at ground level and pollution becomes more concentrated less able to disperse. Especially in London which is in a basin and when there is little wind to blow the pollution away. There should be a plan to cut down trees as they get to a certain size and replace with young tress. The madness is these monster trees with large canopies imho more small trees dwarf cherry blossom would be much nicer that the monsters we have. It's lazy planning and poor implementation. Southwark would rather spend the money on renewing pavements and junctions with their fleecing contractors that plant and manage the trees.
  21. Trees are becoming a cause of a unique British mental illness many people care more about trees than almost anything else they are seriously mentally ill .. BIG trees in the wrong place ie pavements and gardens should be cut down and replaced with new trees. why blight peoples lives for these monster trees which are more suited to parks and forests. People and quality of life right to light must come before trees. Trees in cities should be of a suitable type and size ie no self seeding types like sycamore etc I love trees but hate huge trees in the wrong places It's not the fault of the trees it's the fault of Southwark and mentally sick individuals with tree madness.
  22. https://a.msn.com/r/2/AAljZtT?m=en-gb&ocid=News Not looking good for tenants Rents up activity and availability down.
  23. Yes I'm unhappy my plans have been changed I'd saved for years and now going for a BTL is not the investment I was hoping to get into. In my experience private landlords are little different to large landlords both can offer poor quality. My issue is there is less and less that individuals can invest in the barriers to entry are all biased in favor of large companies. The Labour Gov wanted large co's as they believed they were easier to collect tax from but the opposite is true. This recent Tory Gov are socialist light and they want to micro manage the free market just as the Labour party did. It's about equal opportunity and reasonable rents with this new BTL turnover tax rents are likely to rise and BTL investment is likely to fall so where is the benefit to society other than increased tax revenue which could have been aimed at all rather than the likes of you and me?
  24. The phasing of the lights has been changed to make it hell so they can push through a new layout. Dangerous for the benefit of Southwark Road planners and the contractors who have them in their back pocket.
