Dear SimonM,


Off topic I know but anyway, from your previous posting I can tell that you live down my end of the street (I also received an apologetic leaflet) I've recently spotted several cars cruising our street very slowly with people with laptops trying to piggyback onto unsecured wireless networks, had one on mine till I spotted him parked up. I had assumed they were just looking for free Internet access until I saw some scare mongering documentary about Internet crooks stealing all your details. My network is now tight as a badger?s wotsit. Anyway,just thought I'd be neighbourly n all, as Police 5's Shaun Taylor would say 'Keep 'em peeled'.

I had been trying to remember what that Cafe was called!!! I used to love it in there when hungover and in need of grease, but now it's "The Uplands Cafe", it just doesn't seem the same!

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
