It also makes it clear that you may be out alone after dark and in dimly lit places. Also, that your home may be empty. Not too bright all round really.

Only if you know where rgutsell lives. I assume he hasn't given out his address on the forum. Duh.

Erm... maybe because most people are at work during the daytime?

Not quite sure whether it's you or me that you're trying to make look silly.

I thought in the summer the darkness came in much later. Of course I could be wrong I guess.

Y'man, I don't really understand what you're talking about! But here's a pint anyway... :)-D


KK, not trying to make anyone look silly. Perhaps rgutsell runs in the light during the summer, but at the moment it's winter, and it's dark in the evenings. That's all.




Right, I think my participation in this thread is over... I haven't been running for over a year, and even then my time would have probably been rubbish.

Only an idiot would run when he's pissed.


I'm with the late Jeffrey Bernard on this one. When asked by the medical profession why he drank so much he replied: "To stop myself from jogging."

You must have seen me pass you, no. You're the waiter with the "tray of glasses" right ?

    • Hi folks. A reply from Events re my questions: "Thank you for taking the time to send us this feedback.   We have an internal event debrief booked to take place on Thursday 18 July and all of the issues you have raised have been recorded and will be reviewed at this meeting. I will be able to respond fully to you after this meeting has taken place. There will also be an opportunity for local residents to attend a community debrief meeting. This is scheduled to take place at a venue close to the park w/c 22 July. This meeting will be facilitated by the GALA team, but council officers will be present also. Details will be circulated to those on the council’s stakeholder register and GALA’s stakeholder register and also to anyone who has complained about the event but does not have their contact details listed on either register.     If you have any further questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Charlie Simm         Senior Events Officer       London Borough of Southwark Email direct: [email protected]           Email general: [email protected]  Tel: 020 7525 2739" We must go to the meeting if you're invited because you made a complaint, or are on the list from being invited to the pre-Festival meetings.  
    • The Ivy House, lovely as it is,  doesn't book rooms for parties any more, to the best of my knowledge, except in exceptional circumstances. Though you could ask, in case things have changed again. The Castle has a nice function room upstairs, but I have no idea if they book it out  for private parties.
    • We use Virtuo when we go away for a few days, really nice cars (Merc GLA; BMW 1) that are new and clean. They can drop off the car to your house (or street) and pick it up at the end - again, not for a single day, but we tend to go for 3/4 days. Not the cheapest but competitive and for the great cars - we like it. There is also pick-up from ncp near Guy's Hospital. Here's a £30 off referral https://tinyurl.com/virtuoED if you're interested (yes I get that too).  I recently used Zip car for a daily rental-  was more expensive than virtuo rate (though local ED pickup was a plus) - but a 70k mile clapped out MG was a pretty terrible experience - squealy breaks, no suspension, the leather'ish drivers seat threadbare on right side. Surprised any car rental company could keep vehicles on the road that long.  
    • We always use Balfes and they are very good too.
