I worked some years ago with a homeless man who was admitted to hospital but had nowhere to rehabilitate. He was placed as a temporary resident in a local care home as it was the middle of winter and since he was in his 70/80s it was the only solution available at the time. Even though he knew I was contacting various agencies (St Mungo etc)to find him a hostel place, he decided that after a few days regaining his strength and having 3 meals a day, he preferred to live on the streets. An outreach team agreed to keep an eye on him.

Confused.Com..........".Benevides's attorney said that tabloid reports of an estate worth $32 million were an overestimate. ".......that suggests that Raymond still left a tidy sum to his sole beneficiary or am I confusing Fact with Fiction here?

Fiction, I am mixing real life in Dulwich with a 1970s TV programme. Glad to hear that the star of a series that portrayed disabled people positively did well, although I expect he was able bodied (and clearly died years ago). But I do love a bit of trivia and better gem up on this sort of thing for when I am Pointless or Millionaire. What was the other programme I was thinking about?

I knew he played Ironsides without even Googling.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
