Re: Sockpuppets on t'other forum
Oh no. Does everything have to keep getting get more and more complicated? Can someone please offer some Clear Moral Guidance for us simple folk who want to have a forum for Forest Hill (and one for Sydenham) but don't know which one we ought to be using? Is "Don't lie" clear enough? Or a...

Re: Sockpuppets on t'other forum
Chris runs the tech \ admin’ side of the forum, but excludes himself from the moderation team. This is done, Chris is no longer on the moderation team distribution list for messages sent to that list. This now appears to be brushed to the side as if it’s nothing. But given the evidence on Chris's t...

Re: Sockpuppets on t'other forum
Does anybody else see the parallels with the bigger world? Over in the US we have an American president who was upset by a few women and had to respond with racist tweets and blaming them for saying nasty things. Back in the UK we have lots of people appalled at the conspiracy against Corbyn which ...

Re: Seriously, where can we talk about politics?
I don't think I know any 'freemen', although funnily enough, I was googling the Freemen of Oxford today, and then getting into an ill tempered exchange with my Dad's local councillor. I'd been out with a group of volunteers picking litter in a large open space which formally is the responsibility of...

Seriously, where can we talk about politics?
I know I'm maybe asking the impossible here, but I was struck recently to hear, literally by word of mouth, from one of the traders about 100s of school kids from St. Barts Primary protesting in Sydenham Road, as reported in the News Shopper here: Youth Strike 4 Climate: St Bartholomew's School in S...

Amazing. I've been thinking how to share this with some conservative American cousins

Re: Urgent warning: plant thieves in the area
This is so weird. LNHS is a perfectly respectable organisation, and does loads of good work I've suggested to the London Wildlife Trust Great North Wook project that it would be some good citizen science to encourage people to log where wild garlic (ransom) grows, because it's a marker of where ther...

Re: SilverDale Old Sorting Office
I had a couple of meetings with the owner, a couple of years ago, with a view to leasing the building from him. It all fell apart due to his odd ideas about business. He used to have Oola Boola Antiques on Kirkdale, before he sold and it was developed as Tesco Express. He just seems to be sitting o...

I guess what the officers want is always the most modest because they're the only ones who look at the budget for any project

Re: Pedder SE London flyer
Indeed, but it's so much more socially acceptable to talk about property prices than politics

Re: Bakerloo Line Extension
Lifelike - I am impressed. As I wrote, "rail planning is something I tend to leave to others, because it is so technical". I'm not sure if it was always thus, but these days we are becoming ever more aware of the problem of every Tom, Dick or Henrietta thinking they are an expert, but I ri...

Re: Bakerloo Line Extension
That doesn't sound easy to me, trying to thread turning trains round into the rail schedule without blocking up either the down or the up line at inappropriate moments. There must surely be a better option planned. In fact, it would make more sense, I'd have thought, to run a line down to New Becke...
