Someone PM'd me this morning.....and said my private messages has been hacked into...they informed me that the person I last PM'd had been 'banned' from the forum and that I wouldn't get any reply email from them?


I've forwarded the email to the Administrator.::o

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Unless, unless... dear people that the person who PM'd me this morning is the same person who I thought I was PM-ing a few days ago. The forum member who told me my PM's had been hacked into, has not been around on the forum for quite a long time. They 'vanished'. I'm hoping it's one of the same people just playing a prank on me. Why, I don't know.

If anyone feels that their PMs have been hacked then please let me know and I can reset passwords. I cannot access passwords myself as they are encrypted (MD5 to the techies) and I can state that I do not hack into messages.


I am moving this to the About the Forum section.

When you sign up your email address is not shown to other users, you have the option of changing that in the control centre.

I do not and will not disclose peoples email addresses to others unless I am legally obliged to do so. I value your privacy and your confidence in me and the the forum.

I can sometimes tell when people come on with multiple identities.

I cannot tell what colour hair people have by they way they type messages.

But I can tell if people have an older brother or sister by their chosen username. Not really.


Seriously this forum has been built up on trust and the fact that East Dulwich is a smallish place. Myself, Mark and the hard working moderators always try and act fairly, it is not in our interest to abuse users. We try and keep the place friendly and welcoming and are totally honest and transparent so that people can enjoy themselves in a relaxed environment.


May you continue to do so for a long time.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
