I saw a man pushing a child approximately 12 months in a buggy over the weekend up by the library. It was in full sun, at lunchtime. The cover was pushed back and the child didn't have a hat or long sleeved clothes on. It made me cringe. This was at lunchtime. I am also pretty sure you aren't legally allowed to be in charge of a child while drunk.

The Indie today says that a group of women were arguing with the Mother on the beach - they were saying the baby needed medical attention, she wanted to stay on the beach. One of them contacted the Police. Mum was on a day trip from Plumstead. She's 29 though, so you'd have thought old enough to have some common sense?


Poor little baby. :(

sillyowman - I read this also. Apparently she just covered the baby in a blanket and told them to mind their own business... It is totally sickening, I hate reading stories like this. Why let your baby come to harm? No matter what age you are you should have common sense when it comes to sun and children, it can be so dangerous!!


I say - lie her on the beach all day in blistering sun shackled down till she gets toasted!


BTW, the baby has now been released from hospital, the doctors have said there could be a risk of blistering though, which could mean the baby is not quite safe yet, as it could lose a lot of bodily fluid. But I hope he gets better soon, and the mother screws her head on properly. This incident is being investigated by police!

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
