Norovirus is rife, apparently.

It’s only him and his son. They don’t come in every day. It still there and genuinely helpful. Give him a tinkle before you set off. 07708 875252 I think.

Our water bill is a small fraction of what is was pre-meter. Strongly support renationalisation.

Had mine swiped out of my hand by a passing uber food cyclist. Stand well back from the road if using your phone. Very easy for a passing cyclist to snatch it and be off.

They do. They won’t give you as much as Shoreditch repairs.

Take it to Shoreditch Repairs https://www.shoreditchrepairs.co.uk Call them first. They’ll either buy it for the parts they can salvage, or they’ll tell you how best to recycle it.

I think the feedback from Drs in the past is that they have felt under a lot of pressure to prescribe antibiotics even when it’s pretty certain that the patient has a virus. My own family members have been prescribed antibiotics in cases like that - not in ED tho. However I am reassured by your kind explanation that pharmacists are highly trained and that antibiotic resistance is well within their area of expertise. Anyway, i assume this new approach to antibiotics was all very carefully thought through, widely consulted upon, and any unintended consequences carefully considered. I assume they looked at all the relevant data like whether antibiotics resistance is rising faster in markets where access is easier. And so on. I assume. Though as you suggest, we shouldn’t just assume things.

Given the problems we have with growing antibiotic resistance, it seems silly to now allow pharmacies to hand them out for a ‘sore throat’.

As far as I know all antibiotics are prescription only medicines in the uk. You must see a Dr to be prescribed antibiotics.

There’s no spare pool capacity. It was tight before the closure of the 50m pool at CP. it’s now impossible to find pool space to run a club in SE London.

You could try https://sjsc.org.uk which swims once per week at Aleyn's (well, it used to ... who knows nowadays) and it's a non-competitive club for all abilities, kids of all ages orientated and their adults are welcome top swim with them. It's once per week and more fun than training, but it is coached and indeed coached to a very high standard. Another alternative might be Brockwell Swimmers who also swim at Allen's (and elsewhere including the lido as the name suggests). Their sessions are much more in line with Tigersharks, but I don't know if they accept U18s. https://www.brockwellswimmers.com Meanwhile, I really hope Tigersharks get something sorted out.

Budapest is lovely. There’s lots of great bars and food courts and restaurants. The baths are an experience. Lots to see and do to fill a weekend. Not expensive.

Does anyone know … - is it just Tigersharks or are St James’s, Brockwell and SLSC, and Dulwich Dolphins, and Dc polo etc also being told to leave? - is it all the tigersharks sessions or specific ones? I’m no fan of Alleyn’s. But they do seem to be assumed guilty here, without all the facts available.

Are their plans up on the Southwark Planning Portal? https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/ This should show exactly what they are planning to do. Permitted development doesn't apply to flats. To build an extension to a flat you must apply for planning permission. https://www.planningportal.co.uk/permission/common-projects/flats-and-maisonettes/extending-ground-floor-flat Therefore the plans should be there.

Plusnet is very good. Very reliable, fast and apparently good customer service - but tbh I have never had to use it.

I’ve found the food there the best (for us) of the local Indian offerings. I appreciate others may disagree etc. all the sauces are made off separate bases and they have nice little flavour touches - fresh herbs, whole spices etc.

This is basically Gymkhana, transplanted into East Dulwich. Food is superb. Wine list is fair. Cocktails lovely. Atmosphere buzzy. Popadoms, 3 starters, 2 mains, 1 pilau rice, a pershwari naan and some potatoes. 2 cocktails, 2 wine. £136, incl service. So it isn’t cheap, but for the quality of the food and drinks I would say it’s pretty good value. We will be back! (But it won’t replace Memsaab as our go to curry house). It’s a very different proposition to the tandooris on the high street. And a very welcome addition to the neighbourhood, in my book.

From memory the pavement in from of the shops and restaurants on the east side of LL is actually owned by the leaseholders and Southwark are not responsible for it. Or not for the majority of it. Thus coordination of any repair etc is very hard. The pavement is very uneven and puddles have been a problem for years when it rains. I’ve been here 15 years. And it was always an issue. the leaves - they used to get swept up but there’s no money for that now. Personally I’d rather see them spend money on maintaining and cleaning the pavements instead of traffic consultations. I once suggested - when they were canvassing for ideas - that the cleaner greener safer fund could be directed towards keeping the pavements clear and safe but it was carefully explained to me that that isn’t what the fund is for!!! write to whoever you like. Good luck. And I mean that!

Thank you. I am resident. If it's only 90p / swim then I'm good to go. If it's £5.50, I can't afford it. I'll find out which it is and report back in case anyone else is interested. Shame they can't just put the information on the website. Still, the exercise going down there will do me good ;-)

Can’t find out on the website without registering and downloading an app etc. Just wondering how much a swim is if you pay as you go? ta

Went with these in the end. Thanks all for the recommendations.

Never scrapped a car before. Not sure what to do. Can anyone offer any advice on how, who, where etc? Much appreciated in advance.

Does that mean they now open at 11?
