Yes Tim, especially on a windy day as the pages get blown around too much.

Glad to hear that you have been re-united with Bell Charley. Our pets can mean so much to us.

Rod, Carry an empty milk bottle around at all times. Just in case!

Seemples!

Good Point Willy. If one has a tattoo that would be visible with normal clothing then one should not get any benefits if unemployed as you have made yourself unemployable. Simples :lol: :lol: :lol: This one is a real cracker Eagle! :lol: :lol: :lol: You can't be serious surely??... I suspect you're...

Obviously a pretty open ended question HB! When I cycle there and back from work (twice a day) it averagely takes 20 mins for me each way by bike, by car I can often do the same journey in about 10 mins with the added bonus of keeping dry on a wet day. If the roads are bad (not too often on my parti...

Was that the incident on Sydenham Road today? I got a garbled account from my 12 year-old who was stuck on a bus watching what seemed like a game of real-life dodgems. Must have been something (madness?) in the air today Rachael. My incident was in Welling where 2 lads on a motor scooter were causi...

Good pic HB, makes a good point. Noted the woman having to walk out into the road too! :shock: Wonder what signage or road works guarding was in use here, a pedestrian shouldn't end up in this dilema unless of course she ignored any warning/diversion signs not caught in pic. Also wonder just how com...

Oh dear, and I had you down for one of the good guys Rod!

Thanks Tim, Using 101 for non-urgent situations allows them to deal with real emergencies more efficiently. Used this today as a follow up after observing a road rage incident that I thought they should be made aware of even if just for their records. Good idea to seperate urgent 999 and non-urgent ...

It does have a nice ring to it Annie! ....
(Pun intended - the bit where phones were involved! )... OK, I'll just get my coat then!

A recent thread mentioned Guitar Heroes / Classical music, etc. Why not mix the two:

Shh! Just don't tell anyone that I told you..

Not quite sure what we can discuss on the main site ??? Interesting. Cannot discuss Housing Benefits NHS Crowded schools Voting and Politics Rental market Any matter relating to Overseas. That's you and me out of the equation then! :? Of course you could always become a keen cyclist Eagle! :D

In terms of the height they are flying over Sydenham, it can only be those aircraft on approach to LCY that appear to be low, as for separation reasons, they have to fly under the Heathrow approach (which is generally around 4,000ft over Sydenham). But they have to fly above a certain height to avo...

Amazing, what a can of worms this has opened! Admin is clearly only trying his/her best here. some of us may disagree with the decision but as Abraham Lincoln said: “You can please some of the people some of the time all of the people some of the time some of the people all of the time but you can n...

I must say I've only just hoisted on board that, unlike the other forums on this site, the Town Benefit Office is accessible only to those who are logged in, so not to casual visitors. I must say I wonder why that is thought to be necessary or desirable. Maybe Casual visitors are not entitled to be...

Juliet,
Will you become a Kentish person - or - a person of Kent?
(Good luck for whichever you become)...
