Sod those who work shifts which mean they can't have the stereotypical middle class ED life where they can get up and do things around the house before 8am. All she's asking for is consideration when doing activities during the day.

The fact they're letting in 10 at a time really is helping. When I queued at 12.40 today, the queue was just past the cashpoints. When I left at 1pm, it was starting to stretch around the back of the car park.

Post has been slightly better this week. I've had deliveries on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday instead of a week's worth one day per week.

Post is still erratic, had post today before that was last Wednesday. Magazines have been between 1-5 days late.

Saturday afternoon was the worst yet. Nearly an hour to get in.

Popped into Forest Hill Sainsbury's this afternoon at 3pm. Walked straight in!

Another option is to use the current Sky router to connect to another router as a bridge. This is done by using an Ethernet cable from the LAN port on both routers and setting up the new router to work in that way. This way, you only use the Sky router as a modem, while the other router does all the other work.

My main gripe with the queue are people glued to their phones that they don't see that people have moved down. When I went to DKH on Tuesday afternoon, it was certainly busier that in recent weeks, I had to wait 30 mins at 2.30, getting in at 3pm.

I've got my post today. At least 10 letters.

Argos have a big poster on the exit doors mentioning that you may have to join the Sainsbury's queue to collect items from them.

It was shocking last week, I got a week's worth of post on Thursday. Still expecting post that was sent on Tuesday of last week to arrive.

Forest Hill WHSmith Post Office has reopened too. 9am-3pm weekdays.

Queues at DKH have been short this week, except for today where it went back to Edgar Kail Way.

Derry Girls on All 4. Great craic.

I got some hand sanitiser from Sainsbury's on Saturday afternoon. ?1.05.

Staff in Sainsbury's will help elderly customers as well who are more used to paying at the checkout if they still use cash at the self-service tills.

12, 40, 176 and 185 have already taped off the front door by the driver today.

Forest Hill is closed also.

The 'free' rides may be temporary as TfL may install readers by the middle door in the next few weeks.

It is today, but was quiet when I went past yesterday afternoon. Just used the PO, was about a 20 min wait.

All buses will be accessed from the middle door only from Monday.
