Re: INTERESTING BLOG ARTICLE ABOUT SYDENHAM LIBRARY & LEWISH
I think you'll find, Lee, that in addition to my own miserable complaints about kids and noise (did I mention noise?) I entered the topic last week to describe what I'd been told about the reasons for its temporary closure (the temporary nature of it is something that others claim not to have heard ...

Re: Kirkdale - Father loses it...
Odd thread :? Opened by a newbie, influenced another to join and make a post .... yet express familiarity ... oh well. I'd find it hard to condone any temper tantrum with a child, let alone one that was followed up by admonishments to a bystander expressing shock. Times are hard, tempers fray, it's ...

Re: Urbexing Possibilities in Sydenham
I asked a question about 'sussing out' BBW, not about actually doing something. I'm sure Seifer has gotten enough nouse to answer for him/herself and might even acknowledge the legitimacy of the question, no need for you to do so for them (hence my 'calm down'). http://www.urbandictionary.com/define...

Re: Urbexing Possibilities in Sydenham
I'm sure you know that lots of 'meanings' get widened. I never minded the old chap there was a convo about a couple of weeks ago, the one who had a board on 'his' fence outside a little ruin on Syd Hill ..... showing his address. In fact I wondered how he'd cope if ever moved in to more 'civilised' ...

Re: INTERESTING BLOG ARTICLE ABOUT SYDENHAM LIBRARY & LEWISH
What would happen if people dumped their children in a cafe or restaurant while they went shopping or to work? Whose fault would it be if a child had an accident or a fight where so dumped? what does it do to insurance policies? I doubt many librarians feel as proud of their role as they used to, Mr...

Re: Urbexing Possibilities in Sydenham
Does 'urbexing' also include sussing out property for squatting?
The tunnel between the woods (previously k/a The North Wood I think) and where its other end is blocked at Wells Park has always seemed really scarey.

Maybe it's of some use in that you can see why insurers load your policy price however they do ?

Re: CRIME MAPS
I daresay they have to publish data no matter how raw, Bonsonby, so that armchair critics can assess whether the cops/robbers ratio suits them. I'd not be a cop for any amount of remuneration at all, for one's days and nights to be filled with domestics and broken people that won't report, or attend...

Re: CRIME MAPS
Can't see anything about how the stats are organised. If eg: it's about crimes per sq. mile then the population densities in town could explain part of that. Is it about property crime/insurance ref. numbers vs: violent, ditto. Is it about no-ticket crimes on LT? If the latter I'm afraid I was REAll...

Re: Baroness Mary Warnock & Lucy Mangan to lead read-in!
I daresay it's hard to know which services really are good or bad anywhere, they're each assessed but by different teams and at different times and like any stats or star system there can be crappy unintended distortions..... such as if an area has 3 people with a specific rare condition but one of ...

Re: Baroness Mary Warnock & Lucy Mangan to lead read-in!
All sorts of possibilities for temp closure Louise, low staff level could be one of them (there being a min. staff level at all public premises). However, like wot I said oop there /\ ...... oh look, nobody's ascribing blame to where it belongs :x ..... and as mentioned by other posters in other rel...

Re: Baroness Mary Warnock & Lucy Mangan to lead read-in!
Thanks Louise, I should have posted 'to be closed', not made it sound as if it had happened already. The info I repeated was from a staff member at FH Library and was in terms of a temp closure (thereby the stoppage of further wear and tear) being preferable to risking it being closed at some early ...

Re: Baroness Mary Warnock & Lucy Mangan to lead read-in!
It's clear enough to me Robin and thanks Tim as I took the very word's use as a pointed value judgement about the Mayor. I'm sure that few Mayors or Councillors are perfect, maybe I'm lucky to have pretty basic needs and do find Lewisham so much better than another council we've both got experience ...

Re: Baroness Mary Warnock & Lucy Mangan to lead read-in!
The danger of dragging in the noble baroness is that it might aggravate the not quite so elevated "Sir" Steve's irritation with loud special interest groups, especially given her high minded patronage of the Iris Project for bringing 'ancient languages and culture to inner city state scho...

Re: Kirkdale - Father loses it...
I'd imagine the school involved would be Kelvin Grove or the one near the top of Thorpewood Ave.
Depending how violent or frightening the shaking was I'd be thinking about letting the schools know, to lose it in public signifies a lot .
