I'm from Canada and, for obvious reasons, cannot join in any discussions about local issues on the forum. A few weeks ago, however, I posted a message about Landcroft Road in 1891 and 1901 and mentioned my grandfather by name (he grew up on Landcroft).


This week, a distant cousin of mine - wholly unknown to me - googled my grandfather's name and saw immediately my message on this forum. Through the forum, she was able to send me a private message and we have been able to re-estabish contact between the UK and Canadian sides of the family. Hurray.


I know that family reunions are not among the express purposes of the forum... but I just wanted to send you a big thank you anyhow.


Let us now return to our reguler programming.

      Andy Burke came very quickly to sort out a blocked drain outside.  All was unblocked and it is now running smoothly!

      Recommendation for Building Firm

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Must recommend Baseline Build and Renovate Firm, who have recently completed remedial work in the kitchen and shower room in our ground floor extension. They also undertook some repair and repainted  the external wall  of the extension.  Callum, the supervisor, came round regularly to check on the work underway and to answer any of our queries, The two guys who did the work were friendly,.  hard working,, ensured that our floor and units were well covered with sheeting etc and cleared up daily before leaving,  Had a couple of days when the rain was too heavy to undertake the exterior painting but work was completed within 7 days.  I found them on the Which Trusted Traders web site   They are based in Peckham.
