Two of my neighbours 50yds apart reported an orange ball coming right at them. One is quite PTSDd by it still. 

As I said it hit Alleyn's' building, near the wellness centre. Turns out their IT systems and leccy gates aren't working atm. Perhaps they will now buy a (very expensive) lightning conductor.

 

In the recent past I have actually stood at a warehouse door watching the heavy rain pouring down when the lightning struck the fire escape above me. THAT was close but not as loud as yestarday. You kmow you are near when you hear the electricity hit, then the thunder a few milliseconds later. In fact, now I remember we were on holiday out in the open when we noticed our hair was standing up. We took shelter just as the lightnng started. Electrifying - but thankfully not in a bad way.

... at Alleyn's School about 10 mins ago - about 50 feet from where I was standing! Anyone else having subsequent Internet issues?

All seems OK now. Don't get zapped, people. 🙂

I was passing the end of Melbourne going towards the hospital on my bike when the guy raced past me going towards LL, overtaking cars. Then the unmarked cops passed a couple of secs later.  I didn't think he would make it too far at that speed and time of day. Now I know a bit more, I'm glad the situation wasn't worse. Society is in a real sad state these days.

Ed nagaitub who said they were parked in a disable bay.

In fact they were.

I have seen two car windows smashed in to steal disabled badges. One in Hillsboro Rd and one on Glengarry. Prob done overnight but maybe not. 

Becareful. 

Blue, prob bike lock or similar.

 

If it is yours PM me.

 

Thanks.

House on junction of Stradella and Burbage according to a builder who saw him arriving in black Range Rover with escort. Apparently.

I know this is a bit if a necro-thread but I recently bought Wild Fermentation 2nd ed. by Sandor Ellix Katz. Covers these subjects and a whole lot more. V inspiring and fun

Hi Ian!

Hope you are otherwise well. I can't help with your issue but it is nice to hear from you again.

Cheers

This is disgraceful. Thank you for pointing this out. I will never be shopping there.

Latest talk on the roads is that he may be moving into detached Marlinspike-esque house opp Stradella jct on Burbage. Would somehow make more sense: bigger and more easily cordoned orff for security...

Last night was noisy but that was a birthday party, though a relaxed approach to consideration of neighbours.... the normal pumpy pumpy sound is a youth with a blaster in one of the garages which adds amplification of low end, unfortunately. Prob is not aware of its overall irritation.

Yes, indeed.

Yep!

Uncanny! Keep going :-)

I guess stolen and dumped. If you can describe it, it's yours.

PM me.

Thanks.

Highly irritating noise let alone any dangerous riding. I believe it is usually parked in the front area of a house at the end of Tarbert for reg plate.

There was a chinook flying around over Green Dale way yesterday. Twas rather annoying and I just heard another.

Is there something we should know? I know they seem to fly in and out of Woolwich but this was something different.

Ta.

Bleedin' hell. We heard that!

I am an experienced guitarist i. My 50s but have always wanted to learn some keyboard technique and voicing tips, particularly in the rock/jazz/pop/funk areas, but that is only my preferred taste.

Anyone fancy doing a deal? Realistically I would imagine one session a month for about an hour would be best for me in order to practice.

PM me for details.

Thanks!

Very good.

Thanks -Pete :-)

Thanks,KK. Not quick but deffo the longterm way.

Posting here as well as in wanted section...

I am a decades-long cyclist, musician and now of course, mobile-phone user. My posture is increasingly knackered and having looked up a few articles I'm looking for someone to diagnose and assist in fighting back.

Does anyone have a recommendation with an idea of cost? Preferably avoiding riding up to the Crystal Palace sports physio...

Thank you.

My neighbour was burgled at around 2am last night- unfortunately his outer door hadn't been locked. Items stolen from porch after he had sniffed around the other houses.

I hope no one else has the same tale.

Be vigilant.
