Hello,


Does anyone work for, or know anyone who works for Southwark Council?

I have a community audio project proposal for the Council and they're very hard to get in touch with!

http://www.wordplayeducation.co.uk/ - I co-run audio, podcast & radio projects for children & adults in ED and would love to get a large-scale community arts project underway for a little Christmas idea I have!


If you have a contact name/number/email address, I'd be really grateful!


Thank you!


Zoe (& Leon)

No he isn't an ass but exasperated as any normal person would be by a request for info suggested by the OP, embarrassing in its delivery. BB you are enabling a person who cannot sort herself out. " O wait a moment, I will just google that for you........" this thread as many others, is replete with show offs, problem solvers and know all's.... and infantilisation of hapless requests.

The problem Zoe is that your problem , like a child's, is hoisted, foisted, and declared onto others,

because you do not have the wherewithal to contact the correct department yourself, , but want others here to do it for you - like a child - and will never be taken seriously whilst you allow the EDF do gooders to do your thinking for you, thus not only infantalising you but diminishing any clout you might possibly have had pre post.

Mm. I confess to a sneaking sympathy for EA, who has at least explained their viewpoint clearly rather than just trolling like Grok.


This is the OP's second thread in a few days asking people on the forum to do something for her without apparently making much effort herself and together they did strike me as a bit childish, but no law against using the forum as a labour-saving device I guess.

    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
    • Nope, I'd just get on with my day and forget about it. And I wouldn't report them on the basis that they might spill my coffee in the future.  However the OP seems to think that this young woman is deliberately pushing her bell, slamming her gate etc, having repeatedly been asked not to. I'd wager the woman is a bit pee'd off and there's a bit of a stand-off going on. Best course of action is to go out, take the parcel, smile sweetly, say hello, tell her you hope she's having a nice day / staying cool etc, in a way that comes across as genuine and not pass-agg,  and to let it diffuse. Might find it calms down a bit.  But I like the girl hate the idea of her being denigrated on here when she works so hard. 
    • So of you're in a coffee shop and the barista is rude to you you wouldn't complain as long as you had received your coffee? 
    • OP, you've got to relax a bit. Multidrop delivery is a total nightmare and the delivery drivers are woefully underpaid. We as a society all want to order stuff online and for it to be delivered quickly and cheaply. The square gets circled by allowing companies like Evri to have sham contracting arrangements. None of this is your fault OP but the delivery person is just trying to get through their workload as quickly as possible. Delivery is not, historically, an industry with large profit margins. “The only way it can be profitable is if you underpay the person who is the courier, by not treating them as an employee, by not paying taxes, by not paying their insurance, by refusing to give them sick pay or cover them if they have an accident or train them,” says Prof Annabelle Gawer, the director of the Centre of Digital Economy at the University of Surrey. “That is where the ‘savings’ are coming from.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/01/the-hidden-life-of-a-courier-13-hour-days-rude-customers-and-big-dreams
