I will admit I was intrigued by what was going on, quite a few sirens at the same time so definitely chasing someone. :)

Re: Help clean Sydenham high street - 11am - 1pm Sat 26 June

And yet for those of us that live on the high street (above shops), we order Recycling bags on the lewisham council website and we never get them. I have not had recycling bags for over a year...

Re: Sydenham

Are you maybe referring to Devon Parade, Sydenham, Belfast?

This forum is Sydenham - South London.

Must be tied in someway to the planned reduction of lockdown the following day 21 June? How weird.

Re: Get your Covid-10 Vaccination Passport here ->

I have found the NHS app amazing I can order repeat prescriptions, download my vaccine passport, view my medical records etc I am with Wells Park Practice Samer here. It's very useful, especially the repeat prescriptions.. who wants to sit on hold 10th in the queue just to say "Can I have some...

Re: Covid Vaccination- Sydenham Green Group Practice

Had my 2nd jab there this morning at 1030am and just like last time, no queues, friendly people... I was in and out in under 5 minutes.

Feeling quite lightheaded and a bit hard to concentrate.. but even if I feel worse tomorrow it's still better than the alternative..

Re: Noise pollution

There was a similar thread last year (almost word for word).. https://sydenham.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=20289 I suspect it may be an industrial fan extractor from a professional kitchen (i.e. restaurant/take away)... I sometimes hear it during the day and late into the evening but never ...

Re: Delivery scooters all parked down Spring Hill

It's not just Nandos. Sainsbury's local now does Uber delivery.

I too noticed how many were parked there recently.. it's become a scooter park.

I would imagine it would be soon. I am 51 but was invited when the mass target group was 55-60 so I think they are ahead of schedule.

Re: Covid Vaccination- Sydenham Green Group Practice

I got a text message with a link to click and book online. Had it done yesterday.

I think you will find you can also book by calling 119 or book online:-

Re: Anybody clap last night?

There was no clapping where I live at all. Though considering it was only suggested 48 hours beforehand, many may not have seen it. My mum for example avoids the news now. I watch the news far less than I used to. Doom and Gloom is outside my window... and that's all the news is these days :D :D

Re: Danger of e-scooters

As far as I am aware, it is illegal to ride an e-scooter on both the road and pavement. Yet I see scenes like the one I witnessed today on an almost daily basis. I’ve nearly been hit on three occasions. I am now constantly looking over when I’m walking around Sydenham. It doesn’t feel safe. I belie...

Re: Tannsfeld Road ambulance Bay

I always wondered about that space. I park on Tannsfeld road when I pick up my chinese from Golden City and it's never had an ambulance in it, but I still don't park in it... now I know why I have not seen an ambulance in it lol.

Re: Wells Park practice and Covid vaccinations

An update to my earlier post. My mum who is 71 has got her appointment for tomorrow (Thurs 14th) for her first jab. At a surgery in Streatham so not far to go at all. I'm surprised she got it early as I thought we were still in the 80/85 age group, but she is diabetic so that may have something to d...
