Was told by a lawnsmen on Friday that grass is second seeding itself already, apparently it is early in the season for this to be happening.

With another Bank Holiday just around the corner, what better way to begin then with two outstandingly great "Going home for the weekend" tracks from the O'Jays, beginning with "I love music" Swiftly followed on by "My favourite person",

Take a look at the film Good Will Hunting, "you can do anything you want, you are bound by nothing". Not a truer word spoken. A person's background should be NO barrier or obstacle to them trying or doing anything they want, we are born free and freedom is one the most important things in life we have. It doesn't matter who you are or what your background is, you are a free person and no one should deter you from what you want to do or achieve.

Traffic or rather the roadworks in various locations are causing traffic gridlock. i) Brenchley Gardens, pavement widening works ongoing between Forest Hill Road and Kelvington Road ii) Further major roadworks at the junction of East Dulwich Road and Peckham Rye (The Kings Arms Junction in all four directions temp traffic lights), casing huge delays and creating traffic tailbacks. iii) Rye Lane, as stated above by the station, more temporary traffic lights and more queuing traffic iv) "Forest Hill Road, SE22, Routes 63, 363, N63: Road is closed due to a burst water main. Buses are on diversion. 63 will not serve stops between Peckham Rye / East Dulwich Road and Therapia Road. 363 and N63 will not serve stops between Friern Road and Underhill Road." Effectively no bus service from the bottom of Barry Road to Woodvale till the Barracks Lordship Lane, then onto Crystal Palace. It's NOW beyond a joke. How many times do Thames Water need to do a repair to a water main, if memory serves me right, did they just recently replace the water main on Forest Hill Road, can't they do ANYTHING which lasts????? v) Peckham Hill Street, looked like further works are about to begin No notification on bus stops that the P13 is on diversion, waited 20 mins by side of Primark, then had to detour up to the top of Barry Road and back down Lordship Lane, it's chaos out there. Being cynical for a moment, it was the end of the financial year so the Council are spending (wasting money on a number of daft schemes i.e. Benchley Garden road narrowing scheme, absolute and total madness. This morning traffic was queuing back down Brenchley Gardens into Forest Hill Road BOTH ways. WHAT ARE THE COUNCILLORS DOING ABOUT ANY OF THIS??????????????????????????

So sad to have read this tweet from the dead man's niece and what the family encountered, wholly wrong and immoral on all counts. Everyone has the right to a funeral and send off irrespective of background or any other category people wish to use.

Agreed Receptionists are the first encounter patients have with this practice, "the shop window" that sets the tone for what happens next. Clearly they still fail to appreciate that we are patients who are not well and need assistance and not customers. > Their econsult is also down again. Anyone have any > advice ? How they main being graded as Good by Care Quality Commission is nothing less than laughable. They appear to do everything they can to NOT engage and help their patients. It is actually sad that reception continues to be an ongoing issue and has been for as long as I can remember. Why they cannot rectify this issue is unbelievable? The online reviews for this Practice are depressing to read, maybe they are happy to be so poor.

Eric Chappell, the creator of hit TV sitcoms Rising Damp and Home to Roost, has died aged 88

Maybe that was the reason for the closure of Camberwell Old Cemetery on Thursday?

Its called the economics of business, make a profit and trade, make losses/substantial losses and its time to call it a day and shut up shop.

What a way to get the weekend just around the corner underway with two fab "Going home for the Weekend" tunes, enjoy. Instant Funk - Crying, a Larry Levan 12" Mix Gospel BeBe Winans - Thank You (1997) Rare MAW 12" Inch Remix

Can't wait for Nigello's rant about banners on the Rye!! Waiting for the next instalment in anticipation!!!

The Tams, There Ain't Nothing Like Shaggin It's Over, The Funk Masters

Expect the press and TV news to be all over them like a rash

Very stupid answer, hang them from the school railings, now that'll get Nigello really, really m A d

When the phantom scissor cutter takes them down, we'll know who is responsible. "Don't tell them Pike"

So your opinion is schools are great, adverting is not. Get Real

Please explain what other material they should use that you will be happy with. Potentially the banners will be used year after year, so that negates your argument on that point. I thought good parents had > STRONG OPINIONS on advertising corrupting their > children's minds? Maybe only when it suits. "advertising corrupting their children's minds" - If it's MacD's, KFC, pizza brand this, that and the other etc I'd totally agree, but these are clubs that contribute financially to the school which helps the school deliver, well schooling. What is wrong with that? Does it offend your principles? Let's have a vote, those in favour say I, those against say Neigh. Then in a weeks time we can count up the scores and see who the people of ED support, You or the School, Simple. And before you then start blaming local and national Govt, the Head is doing what they can to raise revenue, in my eyes it's a win:win. The school benefits, the children benefit and those running and attending the "clubs" benefit. What's your next point, pray tell??

perhaps change the title to reduced service as the service has not been cut, and yes I agree with you it has become more infrequent than it previously was.
