Oh no What happened? I usually walk past there after the school run but we went on the other side of the road today. Feel like forming a human chain round them or is it too late?

Renata - this is a beautiful tree. Thank you for emailing and finding out more. HOWEVER, is it likely that we'll get an answer in time to potentially reprieve it from Tuesday's cull? Given the results so far it looks unlikely. So what else can we practically do to show our unease and concern about the way some of this is being handled in time to actually do something about it?

Oh man! Nits ... clothes moths... chickenpox .... I'm under siege and feeling itchy! Wine needed. :(

Darn - sorry to hear others suffering too. Still intermittent today. DJKillaQueen - love to know how you get on. Might be doing the same with Orange... H

Anyone still having problems. Orange been bad last week for a couple of days and again yesterday and today. We're off the east side of Peckham Rye Common.

Nice but pricey .... as has been said.

I'm fairly skint this year and am looking for ideas for a party for a (to be) 8-year old boy. If anyone has any ideas I would be really grateful! I'd also thought about Planet Ice in Brixton. Has anyone had a party there? What was it like? Cheers. Helen

Swedish Glace icecream is yum! Vanilla, Raspberry, Chocolate etc etc.

Have been increasingly worried by shared use down by tube. last week had to warn parents outside one of the pavement cafes who were letting their young kids run all over both car and pedestrian side that vehicles could come along it whuch some did shortly after. They'd had no idea. See it at least once a week - with tourists usually. Anyway' i'm perhaps off topic......

There's a 'major tree works' poster on a tree in Bellwood Road, corner of Inverton Road. Funny thing is that all the 'major' big trees were done over last Autumn there's only one tiny little spindly tree with about 6 low branches to prune - the one with the notice attached.... . Is this the 'major tree works' being planned? There's certainly not much else left that's green after the last time.... H :`(

Hum - see what you mean about 'false economy - looks like potentially a nice little money-spinner for any contracted tree company? And why do it in Spring??? H

Guessing that's a 'no' then... hpsaucey Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Just wondered if anyone went along to this group? > > Cheers > > H

British Library too perhaps? Has collections of ephemera like this: http://www.bl.uk/reshelp/findhelprestype/ephemera/evanionvictorianephemera/evanionvictorianephemera.html

Thanks for posting..... H

What a 'novel' game of charades!

Have signed - hope you get the number of signatures you need! H

Blyme - if anyone's been I'd love to know how it went? The guy running the place - Simon??? - is really friendly and lovely. We've moved house and I keep meaning to book the family in to make a special picture to hang in our new home using the drum ... H

Hhhm - wonder what it is?

Well. Not sure about North Cross Road, but walked back from Peckham Rye Station to Peckham Common and was a funny sort of rotting smell in the air. Never noticed it before. Thought I had something on my shoe lol but wasn't....

AND if a bit of venting makes someone feel better about a genuine issue then what's the harm? No one's forced to read the thread...

Love that shop. Did you get a chalkboard from them?

a big hurrah for sense, perceptiveness and civility from rosie, atticus and buddog. Long may this thread continue in the same vein...

Well - agree, that some of it is probably badly worded ... Jessie Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I'm a woman with strong feminist leanings and I > don't understand the manifesto either
