what really pisses me off on this site is people advertize 4 things or help and when u wanna give it they dont reply, are the people of dulwich so tight? yes i guess they are they want something or help and when it comes to it they STILL want it for free,but i ask myself if they were advertising and wanted to sell someting they would want paying, since i have been on this forum i have answered wanted and get quite a few answers back but no buys, so i suggest the peeps of dulwich spend ur money like every one else, if u need it then buy it dulwich people think they r better than peckham peeps but at least if peck peeps wan something then they r willing to pay.soall i have to say is DULWICH PEOPLE ARE TIGHT.

Substitute DULWICH PEOPLE for such as Little Feat, The Eagles, Free or The Nice and you have a Bob Harris Old Grey Whistle Test comment from the 19mumbletymumbles. Nice one Chich, as Bob himself would have put it, and indeed still surely would.

Though I believe he did qualify Little Feat as having a degree of 'looseness' about them as well.

He was scrupulously fair in that regard.

I think she's a very young female.

A young male wouldn't bother writing stuff like that, and would not be so eloquent.

*goes back to the bread machine collected off someone from here selling it for ?20, sits on balcony with flowers, plants and watering can all bought from people on here for very little money, listens to personal DAB radio (planet rock, natch) I bought off here for just a tenner the other day, puts wine in fridge, given to me unexpectedly in exchange for something I gave away recently, and makes intention never to do the * thing again.*

Chichi - I think you should chill out a little and not take it personally. I'm not really sure what your gripe is but if you've offered something for sale and it hasn't worked out then just let it go - move on. You're quite new to the forum so it's way too early for you to have a grudge against us. Try posting in the main sections and getting to know people. I'm sure there are some very tight people in ED but there are also generous ones to balance that out. Same everywhere.

One woman's junk is another woman's treasure.


I've sold tons of stuff on here. I admit that I could have got more for it than I received. However I am very happy to let stuff go more cheaply if it means less hassle (i.e. avoiding ebay) AND I know that it is keeping our very local ED economy going. For me that's a good trade-off. I have also given stuff away for free, and this has been most satisfying for all involved.


Conversely, I have placed items up for sale and no-one has shown the slightest bit of interest (anyone remember those place mats? Or that ergonomic wrist support)? So what? Obviously the demand was not there at the time, and being the stubborn mule that I am, I may well try again (pre-Christmas is a good time!). However, I do believe that it is a little ungracious of you to make the sweeping statement that ED people are "tight" - refer to giggirl's comment above.


Don't give up using the For Sale section (it's a fantastic facility - and it costs you NOTHING) - if the demand for your goods is there, then someone will buy. Otherwise, there's always ebay (*shudders*).

    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.        
    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.  
    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
