I've got a few things to moan about. The first being, following a mid morning stroll along the lane to Barclays I noted three cashpoints all out of use. This is frustrating, as these machines are rarely if ever in service when I need to use them. That's the first gripe, the second concerns charity shops. I've noticed that on LL a certain shops has bags of goodies collecting up outside most evenings and it's beginning to look unsightly. I appreciate these places are bastions for good causes, but it wouldn't hurt for people to leave the goods with the helpers inside during shop open hours rather than in bags outside for foxes and opportunistic people to ravage open and litter our pavements.


If I can think of anything else I'll get back to you.

With you 100% on this foxy. It most certaintly isn't irrational, it's opportunism in its most abhorrent form, stealing from a charity. I've confronted a few people but it's fairly rare I actually catch them. They must head out in the early hours to engage in this activity? The mess left behind would be enough to turn a visitor away from the area.

Yes this. Some of them don't even tell you they're not working, just swallow your card make 'thinking' noises, and then spit your card out again with no cash.

    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
