  1. Shall we just copy this thread in order to paste it next year as it's always the same....?
  2. Seems like a way of confirming the LTN as permanent to me.
  3. Or it's twenty minutes or so from Forest Hill and frequent. Depends where your starting from really.
  4. A(Hello all Some of you may be aware of the Albrighton Community Fridge running at the Albrighton Centre on Albrighton Rd, Dog Kennel Hill Estate, have a look here if you'd like to know more - https://www.albrightoncommunityfridge.org/ As things get closer to normal for some people we find ourselves needing volunteers, this can be from as little as 2 hours a week. If you do have a little time on your hands, maybe looking for some volunteering experience before the return to school/uni/work, then please contact me by pm, or the Fridge office on 020 7737 6186 or even email Megan at [email protected] who co-ordinates all these things. Thanks for reading and please get in touch if you need anything. Admin sadly this isn't Covid specific so I put it in general, thanks.
  5. Please drop them into the Albrighton Community Fridge on Albrighton Road off Dog Kennel Hill, we always need bags for people to take their food away. Thank you.
  6. I'm working to become a mediator at the moment but you probably don't need me quite yet.. Try going via the Civil Mediation Council maybe? https://civilmediation.org/
  7. No apologies for bumping my own post, but a reminder to anyone reading that every day we almost start again, so all donations welcome. Thanks!
  8. Last Friday was incredibly busy and we will be starting from essentially empty tomorrow morning. If you are able to make a donation, however large or small, I'll be there from nine tomorrow morning. Thanks.
  9. You could try the Melford Road method. Get Thames Water to close the road intermittently while installing new water mains. Then, and this is important, make sure they make a mess of it. The subsequent leaks can then get in the gas supply, so you need a new gas main. They closed the road last night to do this, and it'll be closed for a week or so. Voila! I'm off to buy some planters...
  10. Admin - sadly this is no longer Covid specific. Can we move...?
  11. Hi all. I've been working as a Team Leader 4 days a week at the fridge and really see how any donations help. Please take a moment to read this and see if you can help us and our clients - WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Albrighton Community Fridge has now reached a critical point and we cannot continue to meet the increased demand for food with our current resources. This means that we cannot guarantee there will be sufficient food or essential items for people who need them most. We are so grateful for the generosity of everyone who has donated food and funds this year and to our funders for their support. Without these we could not have provided this incredible service. However, we still need your help! HOW YOU CAN HELP 💚 Donate to our fundraiser http://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunitycentre 💚 Organise food collections from friends & neighbours 💚 Book an online delivery or drop food donations at the centre 💚 Cafes/Restaurants/Shops please donate any surplus food or essential items 💚 Continue to fundraise with your own lovely fundraising ideas Thank you!
  12. Thank you. Egg boxes etc are great. Always short of toothpaste, shampoo, hygiene prodcuts etc which people don't think of so much but make a difference to how people feel. Thank you.
  13. As they all say, get on to Veolia. Can't help but think this is not very bright, behaving like this in uniform and clearly identifiable...!
  14. Offer them for free on here or maybe give them to the Hamlet 12th Man who seem to have boxes of programmes at matches? Then bite the bullet and bin them. I have a pile of 2000AD specials I'm about to do the same with....
  15. Post today! And DHL deliveries! And DPD delivery as well! I'm a lucky chap and no mistake.
  16. You could create a kick start style motorbike trials course over the planters - that would be great.
  17. Hello Melford Road, along with Wood Vale, has lots of Thames Water roadworks at the moment and there is a black Renault parked on the road from before they put cones out. Just a thought you might want to move it, they're working round it a lot but I get the impression they'd like to be digging the road up where the car is..
  18. I supported it then and I support it now - https://www.greyskatemag.com/post/the-grove-diy-an-overgrown-pub-carpark-transformed-during-lockdown/ Have a read..

This is the usual sh-tshow. Stay home kids. By the way I agree.
  20. Colin.... One for the old school there.
  21. Had dinner there last night, really good. Big old portions. Not fine dining and doesn't pretend to be, I had a " Kharcho - the perfect Georgian comfort food - stewed beef cooked with walnuts and spices, served with grilled Ghomi (polenta)" (from website), mrs ruffers had Shkmeruli - crispy fried baby chicken in a clay pot with creamy garlic sauce served with pan-fried baby potatoes. Very tasty and decent value, seem like nice people. They'll be doing takeaway and wine from tomorrow, I will try to support them and hope you do too.
  22. Put them in For Sale and items offered, there's always people asking for moving boxes.
  23. Tell your insurance, they can get it also. I had someone do this to my motorbike on security film, they were convicted of careless driving and leaving the scene. Which was nice.
