Not exactly current but definitely positive ...


Saw an ordinary but rather forlorn guy standing outside the Co-op in Lordship Lane prior to Christmas, stranded by the fact that his bike had been tethered to the bike rack by someone else's lock - every cyclist's nightmare. His only hope was that the other cyclist would come back soon, but the much flashier steed didn't seem to be yielding an owner any time soon. Since the offending lock only passed through his brake cable, I went home, got some tools, and freed his bike, obsviously checking that the brakes worked once reassembled. I think he lived a few miles off so it would otherwise have been a bit unnecessary back and forth in a season when time is short. Good to feel useful and be in the right place sometimes. Haven't seen him since though ... ooh errr!

Good for you, paulc! I think I did that to someone by mistake a few months ago outside the Ritzy. When I came back 8 hours later at midnight all the other bikes had gone and mine was attached to nothing at all. Had this thread existed then I'd have said how grateful I was to find it still there.

      Fireworks

      By malumbu · Posted

      Went to a fireworks display maybe 20 years ago at the Crystal Palace, it wasn't bonfire night, can't remember why it was being held, Capital Radio were there. There were people hanging from a crane, classical music, and quiet fireworks,  It was lovely, still dramatic with the colours but no loud bangs. Not sure why this hasn't become the norm.

      Hi  After a surprising split I find myself trying to furnish a home. If you gave anything that you don't want that may help I'd be so so so grateful if you could let me know please.  Thank you so much

      Nadia did a great job tidying up my very very overgrown yard. (See the before and after photos). I live in New Zealand and my tenants said a neighbour has been complaining about the out of control ivy. Nadia was easy to contact so over WhatsApp, managed to liaise between me and my tenants. Her quote was reasonable for the amount of work that needed doing, and the end result is great! She sent photos throughout so I could track progress. Would highly recommend her to others.
