During the war London Taxis were used as Fire Engines, one was stationed in Heber Road School Playground we all cheered when they knocked a hole in the wall of Heber Road wall to get it in.

The Firemen were billited up stairs in the Block in the Boys Playground near Jennings Road, underneath was the open shelter from the rain this was bricked in to make our Air Raid Shelter.

It was not all that big but big enough for us that did not get evaccated.

That Block has now been removed.

There is a picture of a taxi not being used as a Fire Engine

      No. The pool changing rooms are unaffected.   The gym changing rooms (aka dry side) are being refurbished.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      Thanks for the link Dave. For clarity, the document shows that he receives the standard basic allowance all councillors get and a Senior Responsibility Allowance commensurate with the post he held. He claims no other allowance or any expenses as far as I can see... which makes me wonder what your point might be?

      At Forrest Hill is there a wall at both ends? Looks like one end is steps on the website.
