How funny. I didn't think anything suspect of it at all, just took the note for its word, but seems like I'm the only one - and when I told my other half, he said don't you dare eat it, you're nine months pregnant!!


Do you all live on Ondine like me perchance? (Peckhampam I knw you do, because you did your own raok several years back, giving away strawb plants, which are doing just swimmingly this year, so thanks again!).


I really hope that Lucy makes an appearance so we can hear her story!

If someone put a bag of sweets through my door, it would make my day and I'd scoff them all within seconds. My sweet tooth would overwhelmingly override any suspicion.


My wife probably wouldn't be so trusting, and would no doubt be furious with me for eating randomly acquired sweets. Would probably have to keep schtum.

We got them too (in Ondine Rd) and while I loved the gesture they did go in the bin as you don't know where they've been!


Pilsbury I'm also 9 months pregnant so that probably aided the bin decision! I'm sure we'll be negotiating buggies past each other soon, good luck!

Wow I'm really sorry about this, I promise it was legit, I am she, I live at 39. I'm not "dodgy" or "testing" anyone and I certainly haven't poisoned them! If you still aren't convinced, check out this - it's the video of everything I did. I promise this link isn't a virus or anything haha!!

I think if you look at the responses, most were fine, some as I said a little 'hinky' but I guess that's understandable, and no reflection on the people who made them.

We're none of us expecting sweeties through our doors and it's London and some of us have maybe read a Mark Billingham or Ian Rankin novel too many, so...


But more seriously no 'sorry' required at all, as far as I'm concerned, a lovely gesture, I hope you keep making them.


Hope your 18th went well.


Best wishes

    • Both notoriously “lovely” people to spend any time with or worse, serve 
    • No, just no.  Zero tolerance does not mean we expect zero crime but that we do not accept a standard level as normal and unavoidable. For those who have suffered such “minor” crimes, myself included having had my house broken into,  it is clear from the lack of action that they are considered “acceptable”’. Once small crimes become known to be ignored, it changes where and how we live.     
    • Lloyd Weber and Cilla Black were supposed to leave when Blair got in, but didn't
    • You can't have zero tolerance unless you live in a fascist/police state.  Sadly it is something you have to accept in a democracy.  There has always been crime, even in North Korea, the Soviet bloc, Nazi Germany, Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge etc.   The discussion point is how big a police force we need and capabilities, punishment, and building communities.  And how much we are prepared to pay in extra taxation. Even in the good (economic) times there is crime.  And crime under both Labour and Tory governments. I do not accept that phone thefts and parcel thefts are just statistics.  Police have to prioritise what they do, we might not agree with it.  And most criminals are multi-tasking, moving to where the best return is considering the risk of being caught. And there has to be a market, someone somewhere needs to buy a stolen product (I never buy off Gumtree). A starting point would be to decriminalise all illegal drugs, but that is definitely for a separate Lounge conversation, interesting discussion paper here: https://kar.kent.ac.uk/105520/1/A. Stevens - In defence of the decriminalisation of drug possession in the uk - PPDF.pdf Did you watch any of the series of Peaky Blinders?  This was a very popular series that glorified gang crime and violence.  Funny (ironic) that may enjoy films and TV that does this.  Although only the first series had any historical accuracy in it,  Criminal gangs were around before and ever since.
