Sydenham Town Forum

Knighton - I agree with a number of your points, especially the apparent oddities in the order of play for enablement - the southern section, from your comments, does appear to be easier to connect (with some major work for power/line repair, ballast replacement... blah blah..work). I think there is...

I have a similar problem - steel bath with 1 or 2 minor chips in the enamel, is it easy to repair them? Suggestions on how to do it?

[ it's a plain white bath, so I would hope that colour matching shouldn't be an issue ]

cheers!

Hi Admin, A friend of mine (yea yea, really, honest ;-) ) is looking at setting up a web site - and asked me if I know any good hosting service providers - and I don't.. But... SydenhamTown seems to be pretty reliable to me - who do you use to host this site? Any regrets / doubts / troubles ? Also, ...

Hi there! My wife had our first child at Lewisham hospital in 2004 and we both agree that the place was much better than we expected - and in fact was very good. We had a lazy baby, who preferred where she was to coming out, so my wife was induced. The midwife we had was fantastic, the ward was very...

oops - I navigate in directly through firefox/rss feed, so didn't see the updated home page. Sorry!

Hi all, I'm currently subscribed to the east london line progress mail list and have just received this - thought it might be of interest. My apologies if it is not. DaveT --snip-- Dear David As we enter 2006, the project continues at pace. The project remains on schedule to be delivered by June 201...

er, what about Girton Road car park ? still free (at the moment) and I think it's reasonably clearly signposted? (although the "free" bit needs more clearly marking)

aah, well - it's a fast moving council when it comes to tax hikes... spending is sometimes a different matter

Who did you contact ? (or where did you find the contact - if you can remember )

thanks!

Now that Lewisham are operating a more general recycling policy - i.e. green bins can be used for plastic bottles, glass, card, paper etc - does anybody know if there are plans to offer larger recycling containers? Bi-weekly pickups just don't quite match the size of our bin... [ perhaps the fault i...

good luck Sydenham servers, and much more so to those trying to live on the gulf coast.

A restructure sounds painful, but have to be honest I prefer the RSS feed idea more than an email notification. Generally find that when email arrives, it either gets dealt with right there and then, or not at all (and then forgotten). RSS also works on my ipaq, but I get too much email to sync emai...

well, absolute silence from a "it doesn't work on my browser" ... so - in the interests of feedback - thought I'd just say - Nice one! I like it - and really nicely integrated into this website. Makes me want to tidy our garden right now. ps - oops, almost forgot - using Mozilla Firefox 1....

found a more up-to-date site - may be of interest.

Just taking a quick comparison of Sydenham high street and Penge high street... Penge has a remarkably large Sainsbury's, large iceland - but still has many other shops and quite a vibrant cafe/pavement life. Sydenham has Somerfields, and quite a "dead" pavement life . At a simple glance [...

Penge...... because of the odd Eurostar train or two, shouldn't it become "Penge International" ?

you never know - then the station will _really_ be improved

I'm not aversed to a bit of DIY, (not quite sure if that reads right), but _another_ Homebase (or anyother DIY store)? So, that's one in Penge - oakfield road, one at the Bromley end of southend lane, and now another at the Sydenham end of southend lane... (and there's Wicks in catford... the list g...

heh, no, not quite... just a few years off yet. [40 something to go ] I take no issue with "permanent benifits", it's the 1 year only special offer (sounds like carpet-right in penge) that really riles me - how much would your vote cost - if you were offered cash this year?, or were offere...

Sorry for being a cynic, but, I find the £200 council tax reduction as a "poverty reducing action" rather pathetic. Not because £200 is not enough, I think it is a very good figure - more so because it is for ONE YEAR ONLY. Not surprisingly - an election year. I really feel this is a cynic...

Hey all,

Does anybody have any recommendations (or warnings of "keep away from xxx" which are just as appreciated ) for a local MOT / service center? - Peugeot preferably, but not too concerned.

Hiya,

this works a treat - nice one! lovely way of discovering new posts without the (not really) tedious following through from the forum home page.

Will be using this only from now on.

ta dude!

(and... never knew about pocket feed as well, gonna try that too)
