I?m trying to live in symmetry with my local community so would like to get up at the same time that typically most other people in ED get up. If you reply with the time you normally get up I will add it to my new spreadsheet: What time should Bob get up.xml and then when I?ve had enough replies I can work out the average time people in ED get up, and start getting up everyday at that time. Thank you.

I wake up when my neighbour starts his motorbike. I lay there thinking when I tell him that modern vehicles no longer need warming up as they did 30 years ago, ie start your bike and go rather than leave it idling for two or three minutes. Currently 06.15, far too early. The builders then start at about 8, waking me up for a second time. The builders before that would arrive at 7, then talk for an hour, until 8.


Maybe time for ear plugs.

Once I read an article about how we always save time that we can spend on ourselves. I've always loved getting up early, but after that I moved my alarm to 4am. This is my time to be alone with myself, take care of my face, view my chats on the site think about what plan for the day I have today. My kids wake up at 6.30 and we spend half an hour chatting and fooling around. I want to keep up with everything, so I give myself and my family maximum attention in the morning.

    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
