So by this logic whenever talking about groups of people congregating or breaking social distancing rules we should not only outline the number of people but also highlight the specific racial breakdown of said group? E.g. Bbq at xx location spotted, around twenty individuals, 75% BAME. Should we also try to ascertain whether the white proportion are from the likes of Italy, Spain or the the US too, or do I need to walk down Rome high-street as well?

Do we need to know the BAME/white ratios when discussing teenagers playing football in the park? seenbeen Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > edcam Wrote: > -------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > Idiots.

So spamming on Twitter and Facebook seems to have more luck than calling - still no water at top of Lordship Lane since Tuesday. Received this from TW today "You may have a water supply issue if you live in SW16, SE15, SE19, SE21, SE22, SE23, SE25, SE26 and SE27 areas. The Crystal Palace boosters aren't working as they should and we're on our way to investigate. If you'd like regular text updates please provide your mobile number." Registered for updates so will keep posted as and when I receive them. In the meantime I think social media complaining is more likely to get a response.

Yes thanks chazzle - you obviously have more patience than me - much appreciated. I'm also based in that area so sounds like probably little point in hassling them too as they are working on it. Will report on whether it has worked when I get back from work. Really hoping to be able to have a warm shower tomorrow morning! Thanks

We also have no water in entire building (four flats) at the top of Lordship Lane. This sounds like it's a problem outside of the house rather than pipes internally - not ideal for the next few days! Unfortunately after 30 mins on hold to Thames Water yesterday had to give up.
