I posted a thread last week about Streetbank - a new website dedicated to helping communities lend, borrow and give away things and skills to their neighbours - and there's been a really encouraging response from people who've had a look at the site and signed up. The latest person to sign up has a 1 and 3 year old daughter - and has recently posted clothes to give away to a good home.


Really hope we get more and more members as word gets round...takes 3 minutes to sign on and who knows where it might lead...free stuff, more work/business opportunities - less waste - perhaps you'll even make a new friend or two in the process.... www.streetbank.com

I just wanted to give an update on Streetbank.com which is now really starting to take off in East Dulwich.


We've recently seen sombrero hats and piano's being lent and given away (in that order) and there have also been some very happy tales of new friendships forming as a result, too.


The more people who join, the better the site becomes so do please spread the word if you can. It's so easy to join and is a great way to bring communities together - as well as save money and energy too, of course.


Facebook, twitter and LinkedIn status updates for those who've joined seem to work really well. With each new member, the site becomes a little more useful and much more fun, too.

    • How does one 'fight against...'?
    • that is one cliche-ridden post headnun    it doesn’t mean a sack of beans in the real world  “old fashioned voters” meaning the ones dragging the country down this last 15 years just to laugh at the libs tears. Well done all  I’m not looking back at all. This is not a post Europe world in any sense. There are forces bigger than Europe but uk would be better aligning with Europe against, say, china, the pretending we live in some post Europe world.    and in case you hadn’t noticed, whoever you vote for, there are a LOT of ignorant racists feeling very happy with their resurgence - I would fight against them if I were you 
    • No they aren't. You're coming across as a smug, superior liberal, and that's what old fashioned voters (labour, Cons and now Reform) hate. That 'the deplorables' 'they're all ignorant racists' line is what's driving people away from the traditional parties and towards Reform.  You're as guilty of looking back as Labour. This is a new, post-europe world and we all need to come to terms with that, make do with what we have, and move forward.       
    • I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad  unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform  because anyone who thinks reform won’t make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government  Specifically Chris mason - a not very bright right leaning stooge - large part of why bbc news has become grok-level slop
