Re: 5-a-side footie

And also big thanks to Sydenham Town Forum for, not only letting the thread develop, but also placing it in the bespoke Town Stadium Forum. An indicator of how local Social Media can be used for positive things.

Re: 5-a-side footie

I can only mirror Saul's comments. The fact this small club is still going after 15 years, and increasing in popularity is testament to the current leadership, and the enthusiasm of previous/current players. I live in West Wales now, and trips to the smoke are a rarity and need particular planning ...

Re: Heat Pump Noise on commercial property

I will cover a few issues with Heat Pumps. Firstly, my over-riding thought is that they were politically endorsed, as associates of politicians had made huge financial investments in the supply of heat pumps. Secondly, although the theory behind their function is sound, in practice, they are quite ...

Re: Daniel Morgan Murder

And now compensation being decided. Money isn't really the issue here. However, the Morgan family need to get some closure on this case, because the Met have been just completely incapable of anything, other that covering their own backsides. "The Met Police is in talks regarding a payout to the ...

Re: Daniel Morgan Murder

Good impartial journalism in the last installment. Mere hints at the extent that a cover-up was conducted (probably for legal reasons), But i think AC and RB and News Corp had a huge sway on the way the investigations went/ failed. And a man/father died and his accused are living in the media ...

Re: moving to Sydenham

Sydenham house prices increased a bit when the East London Line was commissioned, coupled with a few other local developments.

I don't have any advice, as I no longer liver there. Just to say, keep you eyes open for properties 'on the fringe' of your desired area.

Re: Daniel Morgan Murder

the first two episodes were a 'slow-burner', but the impetus is building. There are so many potential strands to the story, I think that is how the waters were muddied so comprehensively. After all this time, any culprits have had plenty of time to 'get their stories straight'. And the overwhelming ...

Re: Daniel Morgan Murder

Actually, there was loads of evidence. Somehow, it got corrupted, or went missing. Then police investigations got hampered by various events.

BUMP. starts at 9pm, Channel 4. Much respect to the Morgan family for pursuing this (Alistair in particular), and also the press. I hope something positive comes of this renewed publicity. From a business partnership, to murder, police drug dealing, to a media/police corroboration, that could have ...

Re: Cat run over on Westwood Hill

If someone finds a dead pet, i would suggest taking the body to the nearest vets, to scan to see if it has been chipped. If so, then the owner can be informed via their details.

Re: Zanzibar on Judge Rinder

I'm enjoying life watching ploughing matches between farmers and having no public transport. when you get 4 buses a day in/out of the village, Judge Rinder has limited competition. The JR case was about monies owed between ex-partners, but the issue of the Zanzibar pricked my ears. I guess the man ...

Thank you for the kind invite, which I feel compelled to accept. Such a really gratifying gesture. I'll need to dig out some XXXL shorts and T-shirt. and bring an oxygen mask.
Should be able to make a beer or 2, but not sure about laters, as I have commitments at home.
