Wrong, Cummings for so many reasons is far worse. I don't need to spell this out. Unless you were being amusing. Not really though.

I was just pointing out that people are circumventing the instructions. (including the staff in the Sainsbury's especially the ones doing the home delivery shopping)

The home delivery slots are supposed to be for vulnerable people.

People are supposed to be going into supermarkets ONE from each family.....


Anyway, I had to go to the Post Office on 9th April- I really should have got a proof of posting but I literally panicked when I saw the mass of people on the pavement there...and others pushing through the crowd so I just chucked my post in the box and went home. Luckily the letter turned up where it was supposed to.


(It has now been deemed by the cops that DC did break the lockdown when he drove to Barnard castle....no mention of him doing wrong by going to Durham for childcare though.) It does not appear that DC went anywhere near other people during his 'trips' unlike the vast majority of sweaty panting joggers around here trying to infect people since day 1.

Which is why I am not going out except for absolute necessity and a walk per day and from what I've seen - including today when a young woman squeezed past an elderly lady with a walking stick in Townley Road....when there is little traffic on the road- abhorrent!

Don't suppose you remember what the rational was do you? Sounds like more Southwark congestion making madness to bump up some figures somewhere they want ratifying.


Given how slowly the buses head up the hill, especially from the lights, it'll cause more problems than I can imagine it would solve.

I thought that too i.e. taking out the plants seems a bit drastic and the workmen were hacking away!


Went to Sainsburys' this morning around 10.30 and there was no queue. Came out at 11am and the queue was nearly back to the nursery but seemed to moving ok.

Driving back up DKH from Sainsburys I was behind a HGV which suddenly stopped halfway on the hill. Had to stop for a minute while the HGV stopped and reversed into the empty space which was once a house and more or less directly opposite the place where the plants and trees were situated.

    • If you want to change a radiator and it is the same size, pretty straight forward.  isolate by turning the two valves, one is straight forward hand twist, the other side you need to take the cap off and get an adjustable spanner and turn till closed.  Both clockwise. Use the same spanner to undo the large nuts that fix the radiator to the pipework, open the bleed valve, get a flatish container to catch the water which is likely to be a grotty black, sheets/plastic underneath to protect floor/floor covering.  Then jiggle off, tipping as quick as you an into your water container. Fingers crossed it will be the same back plate fitting.  If not you will have to take the old one off and fix the new one. Replacement is a reverse, allowing the rad to refill and let the air out. No naked flames involved. If it is a different size I can advise on that too. Lots on line too: https://www.toolstation.com/help-and-advice/how-to-guides/how-to-remove-radiator?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=19747119835&gclid=CjwKCAiAkvDMBhBMEiwAnUA9BR26YwBA6kOfcR4-JVxfJEjWdhRk6j0imCNcsIfu064wHN54-cs10xoCZ4cQAvD_BwE Although this is for a pressurised (combi) system where you need to get it back to pressure.  Pretty simple.  I don't bother with jointing compound.    
    • Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍
    • I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses? 
    • confused by the question?
