Hi, I had two laptops which I was going to throw out. I saw the news last night saying that there are a huge number of school children whose family?s can?t afford a laptop and therefore are struggling to learn from home. I contacted a friend of mine who is a teacher and she confirmed this upsetting fact.

I donated two of my laptops that I wasn?t using.

If anyone has an old iPad or laptop that they would like to donate, please, please contact me and I will put you in touch with a school in need.


So far I have received and given 18 devices to schools who have children in need from disadvantaged families.


If you don?t have an old device but still want to help, I am trying to raise money to buy 15 laptops for children who are in need.


This is the crowd funding link:

Many thanks in advance

I passed on my redundant desktop Mac to Lambeth Tech at the weekend. They take old PCs and Macs (and not necessarily laptops) to families and students struggling with being online - or take the parts from older models that can't be upgraded to later operating systems. They collect or one can drop-off at specific times.

    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
    • Hello, I lost a babies blanket between Tessa Jowell and the Picture House on Lordship Lane 😞It is teal colour with the name Cillian embroidered on it.  If anyone sees/finds it please let me know.  Thank you!
