What time did you all set off running? I wandered down to Barry Road about 3:15pm but couldn't see any sign (unless you were all a tame looking bunch this year, which I doubt!). Sounds like a good day was had, hope to join in next time.

Would just like to add my thanks to everybody involved in making Saturday a truly tremendous day. I think that may have been the best one yet but to be fair they've all been pretty amazing days that do just seem to get better and better.


Keep an eye out for the Southwark News on Thursday....


I would also just like to say that picture 50 from Caroline's Photbox may suggest that I was boarding a bus but I was merely inspecting the passengers to ensure that there were no competitors on the cheat. And of course there was not.


Thanks again Sports Fans, please return your Laser settings to stun

Hahaha! Of course! I can confirm that no contenders were on the bus with me and my camera at all;-)


Siduhe - follow the links to my photos above, and you'll see plenty of the avocado, which was a superb costume indeed!


I shall look forward to next year's race.

I saw it on a table as we were leaving the Clock House...on right hand side. We left the Clock House pretty late, so I guess it is probably still there (I think you left before us?). You could give them a ring if you haven't already done so.

Think it was nearer 4pm the race kicked off - happened to be heading home after a birthday party (1st birthday thus the early finish!) and managed to see all of the competitors from the car, was like poetry in motion! Saw the avocado lady, but was the dashing (as in running) chap in the dress that puzzled me ;-)


Was shame couldn't stop to say hi, but with snoozing bugglet and the weeks shopping in the boot wasn't practical :(

Indeed it was I, the reindeer-clad youth who won the race. The question i'm after is HOW to I get my trip to the top of el Shard?


Thank you very much all for a very enjoyable event, I am very much intending to try and defend my crown next year.


Thank you please.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
