Would be inclined to suggest the latter... music and art make us human. Money and finance are just things we use... tokens and tools..

I find that really annoying, Salsa. I chase them off by spraying them with water from am old washing-up liquid bottle. Slightly concerned what the neighbours may think though as my range is about one and a half gardens.

Squirrels are one of the rare group of 'fermenters' regarding food


It's why the bury nuts/acorns

The only likely environment for a confrontation would be shallow African rivers. So we're probably talking about a bull shark. The bull shark is a fierce creature, can grow over 3m long, regularly dines on other sharks, and has been known to attack hippos. The lion's only hope would be to drag the shark onto the shore, which is a long shot. I'm going for the shark.

    • Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…    
    • I don’t think it’s licensed for Sundays. It is licences for Fridays, but there hasn’t been anyone there on a Friday for years. So I doubt it. i think there’s a market at the Horniman on Sundays. Also pretty sure there’s one outside Herve Hill station on a Sunday.
    • I believe there is a minor injuries department at Guys, though I may have misremembered. Not very convenient for SE22 now the 40 no longer goes near. You have to get 2 buses or a train. Charging people (not sure if you mean financially or legally) would waste a lot more time, I would have thought? And  a bad bruise could be serious, depending on the cause and possibly other symptoms.
