Every now and then we have to run some maintenance on the forum to keep it healthy, unfortunately last night's expected 2 hours took 12 hours and still didn't finish so I'm going to have to do it again sometime soon.


I do usually try and give notice but a window of opportunity arose last night so I took it. Anyway you may find the forum's running a bit faster and I'm still hoping one day to be able to make it more mobile friendly, it's just finding the time.


Have a nice Friday and don't forget to wrap up as it's getting a bit cold out there.


Ps if you want the forum to run faster for you, go to the home page and click on all the 'reset new posts' link. It will of course reset all the posts so they'll not be 'new' anymore.

I'll admit; I emitted a small "Homer Simpson" type scream on "logging on" and seeing the "red" notice. Once I'd composed myself, I realised how lucky I am to have something like the EDF whenever I want. And you maintain it too, so that I may keep returning to it. So a massive THANK YOU from me too, Mr/s. Administrator. (tu)


Edited to say, perhaps Mr/s. Administrator should close the Forum down more often, if only to raise awareness of how fortunate we all are to have such a wonderful resource. Certainly, as a result of last night's maintenance, I was able to recognise just how much I take this Forum for granted.

    • Our cellar was damp constantly and we were told that there were many underground streams in Dulwich (which eventually end up in the river in Belair Park),  Agree it is connected  to the water table. We had all old plaster removed from walls and replastered, 
    • Andy did a good job for me doing up a flat - bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen for a very reasonable rate. He’s a top notch painter and decorator and can turn his hand to many other trades too. I’d highly recommend him - nothing was too much trouble.
    • A ramp would not be suitable for Love Dulwich. Gradient would be too steep, also length of ramp would go into road. We considered a ramp in the house to get down 2 steps (internal) but an OT who measured said we would need a clear space of around 9 feet plus because of the height of steps.
    • Over the past few months, Jan from Silver Fern Landscapes has completed several projects for us.  (He was recommended by a neighbour.)  We have been very pleased with his work.  Some details are below: Built and replaced several trellis fence panels.  In one part it was very complicated due to a large vine that had grown into/around the trellis.  He was able to save the vine, having unpicked it from the old trellis and then securing it to the new.  The vine went into a bit of shock, but is now thriving. Repaired the top frame to our garden side-return door, replacing rotten wood, and repainting the new to match. Repaired the loose tiles in our front walkway Along the way, during his visits, Jan also gave advice on various topics, such as how to best care for: our recently re-planted lawn, a tree that lost a large branch, and the vine mentioned above.  His working style is straight forward...he shows up when he says he will, discusses what needs to be done, provides timely quotes, completes the work as agreed, and sends an invoice. No drama, no hassle.  We will definitely be calling on Jan again when future garden-related projects arise! silverfernlondon.co.uk/silver_fern_landscapes.html
