A friend of mine in Herne Hill recently lost her home of 32 years to a dreadful house fire. All her irreplaceable possessions were lost along with 70% of the house. Seems it was her TV on standby that had overheated and caught fire. So just reminding everyone to not leave them on standby. I had a very professional guy round the other day putting in hard wired interlinked alarms very reasonable ?85 per alarm. For anyone else interested his number is 07943 548 586 done the whole house in half a day. Remember to test them once a week.

In fact London Fire Brigade will do a full "Home Fire Safety Check" as part of installing smoke alarms, all free and done by experienced professionals. Contact your local fire station. Don't pay anybody when you can get it done for free effectively from council taxes you have already paid !!!

Hard wired alarms cost about ?25 each, so ?60 to install each one is a bit steep (if he did the whole house in half a day he's raking it in).... Never heard anything about a recent house fire in HH...

    • Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.  
    • Same can be said for the current and prior governments 
    • Good afternoon, We are looking for a gardener to tidy up our climbing rose. It is very high, so the work will require someone with a tall ladder. can you please recommend anyone?  thanks s
    • So you are also old enough to remember the Heath Out protest by the TUC when unemployment hit 1 million? We all have selective memories, this thread is no different. Please give me a list of the Labour sleaze. And compare it to the Tories.  There are a few of you who appear to have a long term dislike of Labour, so all this is a gift.
