Hi Will


I totally sympathise.. Hoome office still has my passport (since Sept) and apparently it should have been back by now!, we went through a similar thing recently with Mrs Strawbs who needed to go on a holiday and they said 10 working days and it turned up literally on the 10th day..


Depending on where it is coming from it might be worth calling them up and if they havent sent it then getting them to send it to work for you..

thanks strawbs, fortunately for me my employer has asked me to stay at home every day until i start my new job (so as not to take trade secrets etc) so im in & waiting for mr postman... (& watching murder she wrote..)


Furthermore, when i went to the post office yesterday they had shut at 2pm , blaming the weather!! Now, if you can open 9-2, why the hell can you not open 9-5?????????????????? i ask you?grrrr brrrrrrrrr blahh

Wow you are on that fabulous kind of leave where you are supposed to be gardening!! I too am leaving my job but no such luck for me unfortunately!!


Maybe they were trying to be nice to their staff and letting them attempt to get home before it got dark given a few peeps had to walk alot of the way yesterday (me included and Im in canary wharf!!).. But yes I hear your pain so rant away my friend..


So stressful when for any reason your passport is away and I have to say the customer service in this country doesnt fill you with any kind of confidence that matters are all in hand..


Good luck and enjoy Jessica Fletcher!

    • I had this same query the other week - Mediquip no longer cover Southwark and I believe the company when bankrupt? Anyway, after some digging, I found the news on the adult social care page of Southwark Council website.  The new supplier of medical equipment that is issued to Southwark residents via an OT from the council or the NHS is Provide Equipment Hub.  I emailed them about returning two items and they did promptly respond and came and picked up the items the following week.  Email them at [email protected] Importantly, they will come and do urgent repairs of equipment like hospital beds.  I'm surprised that Southwark haven't made this change more widely known as it will impact many vulnerable residents.

    • Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).
