Not a problem Annie... It winds me up too. There's just no excuse - and driving up and dumping on others' property is indefensible! We have a number of flats which are sublet in our private converted block and every time people move out I end up having to get rid of whatever people dump by the bins...

Bensonby, I have PM'd you, and also sent one to admin yesterday, but neither of these are shown in my 'sent' box. Did either of you receive them?

Barty, I haven't created any big long thread (or indeed any thread on the subject, not even this one!). You say the poster decided to leave the forum himself, but shouldn't we make an effort to stop him coming back, especially after you witnessed what he had posted? We'll agree to disagree on this o...

Admin, do you not have a record of what McLondres had posted in the Town Cafe (Limescale out of kettles etc. thread) at about 17:30 yesterday? He edited the content himself at 18:30 (along with many of his other posts), so it was on for about an hour. It was extremely abusive, vulgar and racist to t...

Anyway - McLondres - come on Chief! No-one is saying you need leave. Just play nice and stop trolling and you'll be OK by us? If you saw what McLondres had posted on here (before he erased it all, along with many of his other posts) between about 17:30 and 18:30 earlier, I would think he won't be a...

I didn't particularly see his exit being 'Elvis' or 'Jackson' style, I thought this one was rather more reflective of McLondre's departure..........

I regularly have to report faulty traffic lights on Southend Lane. The telephone number to report the matter to is 020 8314 2564, or you can report faults on the TFL website. Either way, from my experience, they'll take about 7-10 days to attend to them, irrespective of what chaos is being created.

As natbeuk says, FM/AM clock radios are available from only a fiver. If you ever listen to TalksSport or Radio 5, DAB reception is far superior. I've had a look online and Argos, Comet and Currys have them for £24-£30, Asda have one for £23:49, Tesco £24:97. Wait until after Christmas and you may ev...
