Thanks LM - but at 42 and with 43 fast approaching, I think I just make it.


According to Collins Dictionary, this is "... usually considered to occur approximately between the ages of 40 and 60".

Yes mee too DJKQ. I haven't posted on this thread because I couldn't think of anything I wanted and then I read your post and I thought yes, spot on. I wan't things money can't buy.

Yes, philosophers make that point about just about everything...but - alas - I am no philosopher...I like the simple life and live by simple rules which come from deep within...my instincts...my intuition etc...it is those which tell me what is happy/sad, good/evil, black/white, simple/complex etc. etc. Call me a simpleton.


The only things that truly matter in life are those that money cannot buy. But I am quite certain you know that already.

Yeah but having said all that, my fabulous motorbike and more importantly riding it, makes me so very happy.

Life ain't about the destination it's about the journey.

Yeah right, but money will help prevent you having to walk the entire length.


Now, back to bed.

    • Just as one example, the grass in a least some of  the tree pits in Ulverscroft Road appears to have been sprayed. If it's not the council who has done it, then I wonder if someone is trying to kill the trees 😭 although I doubt if that would work, as the council have sprayed tree pits in the past (ignoring handwritten notices by my then very young grandchildren asking them not to spray as they had sowed flower seeds there) 🤬 Grass in the pavement nearby appears to have been neither sprayed nor scraped out. I'm quite confused.
    • They aren't. They are removing them manually, scraping and cutting them out. I've seen them doing it on my road and surrounding roads. I can't imagine that they would have different methods in different parts of East Dulwich.
    • I see. But as I read it, Tesco would still need the agreement of the owners/ leaseholder to submit proposals, so would need Poundland’s cooperation? I suppose we’ll have to wait while this plays out. There’s applications re this site on the Southwark planning portal dating back over 70 years. In 1954, Woolworth’s applied to convert the original 4 shops here (Nos 29-35) into one Woolies but the council refused because the flats above the shops would be lost and there was a local housing shortage following the war. Small businesses being displaced by big chains on Lordship Lane was already a trend back then.
