Does that bother you.. ?


I usually post about being on holiday (Usually ? I hadn't had a holiday for 9 years)

to tell Michael P. I wont be at curry club.


What about those who go on every time they have a Pizza at Franco Manca.. or a Curry at Ganapatti ...

or a meal at Franklins .. or the Palmerston..


Actually don't hear much about F.M. any more, now the Novelty has worn off.. Its all about that Pussey place now.


I don't see the problem with saying I'm away or going away.. Its one of the few things that I get excited about.

I have a good security system with several key holders registered with the police..

I also have VERY nosey neighbours.


After all when I was working I was out all day.


Apart from a 5/6 year old Tele and a couple of old laptops (10 years +)there is sod all worth nicking.


I haven't said exactly when I am going and where I live.

Biggest risk is with rough minicabs picking you up and taking you to the airport.


Burglars often monitor peoples movements.. and wait for you to go out..

Some break in while you are asleep. Some pose as officials. ?


What can you do. ?

No I don't have a problem, just curious as to why you do this as no one else seems to. If it was just a case of telling MP that you won't be at the next CC, fair enough, but it's not just that though is it?

When someone posts about a local eaterie it's not the same thing. Most tend to be a good or bad review, and invite discussion on a local issue. However, if someone were to post that in x number of days they were going to have a meal at xyz, then that's more about them than the eaterie.

Nothing wrong about being excited about a holiday, I am about mine, I just don't feel the need to tell everyone on here at every opportunity.

Any reason why you decided to start such a negative thread about the forum?...

But you know I always get things wrong.. and make things up.. perhaps I'm not actually going anywhere.

and just winding people up.

İf İ didn't post here. Many here would have no one to have a go at.

Their world would dry up.

They would have nothing to say for themselves .


So I just feed the trolls . I'm doing it now .

They love it . They really do.

It should read "vacuum cleaning" , Hoover being a brand and all that


I actually quite enjoyed my last root canal treatment



Talking of canal's, when IS the Lordship Lane one being dug?

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
