1911 Census

Freeview boxes
Is anyone else having problems with their freeview box? About 10 days ago all of a sudden our box told us it couldn't find any channels. We have one TV with an in-built system and there is no problem with that just the box. Not sure where I should buy a new box or if there is something fundamentally ...

Pat - although I agree with a lot of what you say it seems to me that we are now looking at the Greyhound through rose tinted glasses. As I remember it there were fights (some involving the police), drug dealing and generally a lot of bad behaviour and for these reasons I can't really say that the ...
I had exactly the same experience but going in the opposite direction. Boarded a 176 at Cobbs, destination board said Oxford Circus. Reached Camberwell and told the bus wasn't going any further. Everyone then descended only to watch the bus cross over the traffic lights and then commence its journey ...

Although it seems a good idea to be able to use Oyster cards at the station can anyone tell me where the machines are going to be placed? At the moment there is congestion in the morning and evening rush hours getting into and out of the station - having to go through machines which more often than ...

Sydenham has no hope of becoming more like Lordship Lane unless somehow we manage to persuade people that we don't need any more pound shops or hairdressers! Walking home from the station last night I saw yet another shop selling cheap goods and another hairdressers. These people must look at the ...
