...particularly as the games are only over one leg and the team's final position determines whether they play at home. So the team finishing second will always be at home and the team finishing fifth (Dulwich last year) will always be away.

Ha! Having attended many of them, I have to agree with you, taper. However, I've noticed that - in recent years anyway - this has tended to happen when they've started the season strongly with good placings in the table. This didn't happen this season and so am hoping that an alternative pattern (hopefully the reverse) is emerging...


*feeling excited*

Finishing third is a great advantage because it would get Hamlet a home play off semi final, and just possibly a home final (if the 5th team wins at the 2nd in the semi). Let's all get there on Monday and help them home.


Worth mentioning also that Hamlet have following today's results (barring unrealistic goal difference swings in the last two games) qualified for the playoffs, though we could still finish as low as 5th. (This is because the 4th and 5th teams have yet to play each other, so can't both pass us.)

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
