Hey Everyone,

The Bike Project (link at bottom) do great work fixing up donated bikes (in pretty much any state) then getting them to refugees who use them for essential stuff. Ordinarily they rely on people taking bikes to them but that's obviously tricky in these weird times and their donations have dropped.

I've therefore offered to be a temporary drop-off point on Barry Road for SE22 and areas around, next Thursday night (7th) from 5 - 7:30pm. Will all be contact free and from a safe distance. Send me a DM if you have stuff to donate and I'll let you know full address (and happy to provide evidence that this isn't a seriously poor taste hustle - they'll also be crossposting on social media etc later in the week). Also if you're interested in being a drop-off point for them in a different area.

Bikes are lifelines for some people right now.

Cheers

  Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!

  Hi I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

  Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.
- Does anyone remember an incident from the late 90s/early 00s in which a young man fell to death from Dawsons Heights?

  Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
