P4 running OK. Picked one up from Dulwich Village and got off outside Brixton Tube. Victoria and Northen lines running OK, albeit overcrowded (but that's probably normal).

I just passed a 37 on East Dulwich Grove heading towards Herne Hill so I guess that they are running and are no longer diverted.

The Charter plans to open at 10:00am.

The P13 goes much closer than the 363. Get off at Duwich College for the shortest walk to Kingsdale. About 10-15 mins walk from the bust stop I would think. Check the bus routes here.

Why presume ?

Thanks to all for the advice so far. We'll definitely be visiting Finches and TK Maxx.

We're considering a skiing holiday next year in the February half-term. None of us - parents included - have ever been skiing before so I wondered if anyone out there had some advice as to the best place to go and/or stay. My children are aged 12 and 15. Apres ski nightlife is not a priority... and yes, I know it's not going to be cheap.

The Search function is not working for me either. I typed "wardrobe" into the search box and clicked the search button. It says the search is running but then comes back with a blank screen with the following URL. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/search.php?9,search=wardrobe,page=1,match_type=ALL,match_dates=365,match_forum=ALL

Southwark compost costs ?4.50 per 50 litre bag or ?12 for 3. Southwark Garden Waste

How Short...

How Long...

Discussed before fairly recently. See this thread including comment by James Barber.

If you suspect that the socket for the power lead is at fault then http://www.laptoprepair.co.uk/ will repair it for you, or failing that I'm sure they'd be able to diagnose the issue. Why not give them a call to find out the rough cost of a repair.

James can you tell me who is responsible for the maintenance of traffic signal in the borough ? Is it TFL or Southwark ? I have complained to TFL about the traffic signal that filters the traffic right from the Old Kent Rd to Trafalger Avenue on more than one occassion and still nothing has been done. There are supposed to be two lights but one was damaged a while back and has never been repaired/replaced. The other is in a very poor state - the red light doesn't work and the green filter arrow has no shroud and the green glass has slipped so it shows the white light when its supposed to on green. I use this junction regularly as a cyclist but frankly the state of lights is dangerous for all road users. TIA

Southwark Council's Abandoned Vehicles Form

Has anyone had any experience of these units where you extend your ethernet cabling via your mains cabling ? There are several brands about and for reasons to complex to go into here I'm considering one of these rather than wireless but was interested to hear if anyone else had used one and whether or not they're any good. TIA

Crown and Greyhound, 8pm

The offspring in question is 14 so I think the innocence has worn off. Thanks for your replies so far - anyone else want to add their thoughts ?

It's hard to generalise I know but at what age would you feel comfortable about your son/daughter having a girlfriend/boyfriend ?

Take a look at this thread and this thread.

How do they check if you're using a PAYG Oyster Card ?

So how many of the 10 Post Office Stamps - Classic Albums covers do you have in real life? Me, four, New Order, Coldplay, Clash and Blur.

One important difference between Oyster on trains and Oyster elsewhere is that Southern (not sure about other TOC's) operate a morning (0630-0930) and evening peak (1600-1900) so if you travel into and back from London Bridge between these hours you'll be charged 2 x ?2.10, not ?2.10 + ?1.70. Still as pointed out the ?4.20 total is 10p cheaper than a normal paper return of ?4.30, and each ?2.10 single on the PAYG oyster is 30p cheaper than the ?2.40 paper single.

As only an occassional train user I'm slightly confused about using Oyster when its comes in on Saturday however I have found this information on Southern's website that might be useful to others like me. http://www.southernrailway.com/tickets-and-fares/ticket-types/oyster-card/ http://www.southernrailway.com/download/4313.4/oyster-pay-as-you-go-faqs/
