R.I.P Karl.

I many times took my Mac computers to System Solutions just off Lordship lane, Blackwater street and if I was lucky, got a chance to sit or stand around and talk to Karl a while. Sometimes a long while. I bumped into him down lewisham way one evening late last year. Though a drag to have a breakdown, I would always look forward to the cheery welcome from he and his receptionist and though the bill would usually be a bit more than you hoped the repair was perfect and the explanation. So yesterday I was very happy to recommend Karl to my friend who lives so close by to push studios, the building Karls business was in. " Looks like its closed' I was told. Surprised I looked into it and just now found out why on an Atari forum.

karl died suddenly in January of this year. Its a real tummy punch to find this out. He was such a nice guy. For many it's the end of an era. my somewhat late condolences to Karls family co workers and friends. Boooooh.

I’m very sad to hear about Karl. I used his services a few times in the past, and he was very helpful. I first met him in the former Jack’s Cafe on Pellatt Road where he used to often have lunch. He was a very kind man. My sympathies to his friends and family.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
