I think of it as a management tool. Happy to report it works all the way up to CEO level.

Talking of U2, Bono is one of the biggest hypocrites around. He chides governments for not spending more on relief of poverty, while he and his chums avoid tax on a big scale.


Bono, where do you think that governments get their money from so that they can spend more on poverty relief? From taxation, that's where.

Hey. I started that thread and if I'm brain dead, well that's my right. Over to you to start an intellectually stimulating thread.........

The Nights are drawing in.

The Weather has turned cold..


The EDT has turned on Their Fires and cranked up the heating.


LOVELY..


Then you get a couple of Selfish Gits that pull over a table and two stalls

and sit with their Ar**s in the flames so no one can see the fire or feel the benefit.

Posts in the wrong thread, particularly what are clearly ads. I sometimes report them to Admin but not sure this is being enforced much. This week seems to be mainly events. Suppose it makes a change from the endless 'research opportunities' and me-too TV/media idiots looking for people to mock.

People who don't say "excuse me" or make any polite request when they need you to move, usually on the bus or train. They just shift around, give you a hard stare or trample you. What is wrong with asking? You're not going to burst into flames if you speak to another person in public you know!


Myself, for responding to their fidgeting in lieu of a polite verbal request to get out of their way. I wish I could just sit and stare ahead of me and remain resolutely in their way until they are forced to actually ask. But I am far too polite (and English) for that. I shall have to get some blinkers for wearing on public transport. And then I get annoyed that they don't say thank you when I do move... grrr!

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
