She clearly was very distressed and vulnerable. Every suicide is a tragedy and the immediate question is always one of whether anything could have been done to help her. Her friends and family especially will wrestle with that for a long time. I suspect that she had been battling with depression for some time, and that the decision to pursue with the assault charge was the final tipping point. It will be a complex mix of things that took her to this very tragic place though. Very sad. She had everything to live for in reality.

Apollo astronaut Al Worden has died at the age of 88.


Worden served as command module pilot for Apollo 15 with Dave Scott and Jim Irwin. During the mission Worden became the first human to carry out a deep space walk. He logged 38 minutes in extravehicular activity outside the command module, "Endeavour."

Very Sad..


Back in the 70's Myself and a friend were invited to go to Blenheim Palace to meet Lord Bath.

Cannot remember by who but it was a close family member.

We declined as we did not want to meet some Posh Rich person.

We had no idea about the Man at that time.


Really regretted it later..

I don't believe I was ever contrary to your way of thinking Sparticus. Every death is a tragic loss, whether in hospital, at home, in a care home, at home or abroad. It is painfully tragic that those looking after us on the front line are succumbing to the virus because they have not been given correct PPE.

Actually I quoted the message as it was when I replied this morning. It still reads 'foxy'! Not sure of the point you're making ianr. I did not participate in the thread you are quoting. Let's focus on the point of the thread, shall we?

    • This presumably hasn't been done by vandals. It's hardly a Sycamore Gap situation. So if it's been done by professionals, unless it was a mistake (unlikely) there must have been a good reason, as it would have cost money. It would perhaps have been a good idea to put a notice on the tree explaining why such drastic work was done, but usually (I think) it would be either because of disease (often not noticeable on the surface) or that the roots or branches  were endangering nearby structures. As already said, nobody on here is likely to know. The tree department in Southwark Council are helpful in my (admittedly limited) experience. Please post on here when you have found out, as I agree what's left of the tree looks pretty odd. Depending on why the work was done, possibly they intend to remove the rest as well?
    • I have a very stupid question. I want to get a SIM card to put in an old mobile as a back up,  in case despite my best efforts my mobile gets stolen and I have no way of contacting anybody quickly, eg banks. Can I just buy any old cheap pay as you go  SIM card and put say ten pounds on it and it will then be fine for years (with the phone kept charged!) even if I don't use it, or do I have to use the phone  every so often to keep the SIM card valid?
    • I hate to see trees cut down to such an unfinished state. Unless the tree is home to wildlife, an effort should be made to remove & replace. Otherwise, it's just so useless & unsightly.
    • Given the level of care in Dulwich Park, I would not expect this to be careless or unnecessary. It will grow back.
