Not nasty enough to use the N word however - point that out :)

My heart was racing watching that. Really really well done in terms of drama and intensity. People are saying it went too far, but grim as it was, I thought it was spot on.


SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

Got that right, but it was a cruel tease, making you think that Glenn (who got the bat in the comics) might be spared. Apparently the actor (Steven Yeun) said he didn't want that moment going to anyone else.


One of the most interesting things going forward will be the fate of Daryl. He's not in the comics, so no clues there.


Speaking of the comics, I've finally started reading them, but I'm only at issue 10, all this Negan stuff is around issue 100. I've not even made the end of season 1 yet. But there are big differences. Carol is NOTHING like her TV counterpart. And Shane (main antagonist of seasons 1 & 2) wasn't around for long at all in the books. And no Merle & Daryl. Plus Carl is way younger (7 at the start).

I was only able to catch up yesterday. Also enjoyed Talking Dead's extended show and highlight reels. How young Steven Yeun looked in series 1!


I'm very sad to see him go - great character, the heart of the group. But they have gone a long time without the death of a really central character (Beth, or all the way back to Hershel?), and Glenn does die in the comics.


Excited to see where they go this season, it's certainly changed the group's world. Never read the comics so everything is a surprise.

Thought the acting was superb. From everyone, even those that didn't say much.


They actually filmed the deaths of all of them so as to keep the outcome secret. Maggie's clubbing (and Glenn's response to seeing it) has been leaked, but I don't really fancy watching that.


Anyway, it's certainly spiced things up a bit, as I thought the last season was getting slightly stale.

      Tree Dulwich Park

      This presumably hasn't been done by vandals. It's hardly a Sycamore Gap situation. So if it's been done by professionals, unless it was a mistake (unlikely) there must have been a good reason, as it would have cost money. It would perhaps have been a good idea to put a notice on the tree explaining why such drastic work was done, but usually (I think) it would be either because of disease (often not noticeable on the surface) or that the roots or branches  were endangering nearby structures. As already said, nobody on here is likely to know. The tree department in Southwark Council are helpful in my (admittedly limited) experience. Please post on here when you have found out, as I agree what's left of the tree looks pretty odd. Depending on why the work was done, possibly they intend to remove the rest as well?

      SIM card for spare mobile

      By Sue · Posted

      I have a very stupid question. I want to get a SIM card to put in an old mobile as a back up,  in case despite my best efforts my mobile gets stolen and I have no way of contacting anybody quickly, eg banks. Can I just buy any old cheap pay as you go  SIM card and put say ten pounds on it and it will then be fine for years (with the phone kept charged!) even if I don't use it, or do I have to use the phone  every so often to keep the SIM card valid?

      I hate to see trees cut down to such an unfinished state. Unless the tree is home to wildlife, an effort should be made to remove & replace. Otherwise, it's just so useless & unsightly.

      Given the level of care in Dulwich Park, I would not expect this to be careless or unnecessary. It will grow back.
