Hi,


We've notice a marked rise in the number of house flies barging into our abode and generally making a nuisance of themselves. We like to think we keep the place pretty clean, so I'm assuming it's just the time of year and 'one of those things'. Is anyone else playing reluctant host to these blighters and has anyone got any tips on what to do about getting shot of them. I've spent the past couple of nights hunting with a can of Raid, and while this was initially strangely enjoyable, the novelty has worn off. Any general titbits about their life cycles and preferred habitats might also be useful, cheers

I've actually shot one of those things.


If i'm right its a 44-Magnum ( in nickel )


When you pull the trigger it kicks up hard, a flash of flame rips out of the end & your chest goes "Uuuuhhh" as the air is knocked out by the force.


Really quite exhilarating.

    • I do not know how old you are, but if you are clearly an older person ( please forgive if not the case) I think what these kids did is even more despicable. It seems clear this is not just misguided hijinks.
    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.
