where's that?

since Jan. '19

Blimey! Are you the project lead?

Totally.

Lineker/MOTD chaos - look the BBCs not fit for purpose is it, let's get rid of it.

Junior doctors striking - NHS is falling apart, let's get rid of it.

No actually I think you're right, solid brick post-war is rare, but interwar could be either. From a very small sample size, houses of a similar style and age could be cavity in Cambridge and solid in London. Not sure if that is actually a pattern though.

Imagine all the time we could have saved on this thread discussing its construction type if we’d know this.

Not really. 1930s-50s were pretty variable across diff types of construction, brick could be solid or cavity at any point in that time. Tech was changing but not consistently (wars had something to do with that).

Surely there's a vegan recipe?

Right colour but leaf shape looks off

Brutal :/

...aaand I just automatically tapped my bank card at the st pancras ticket barrier. FFS. Guess I'll be calling EMR in the morning...

£79 day return (peak morning hours), advance tickets, I can't drive so not much alternative and I wouldn't fancy driving today in any case it's been non-stop snowing all day here.

I am currently in Sheffield station. Looks like all Transpennine Express services cancelled. No delays to get to London though.

Is this real?
I'm legit totally confused.

Won't this trigger some kind of change in law/protocol where he will be the last to be able to pull this kind of shit?

I don't particularly want to be that guy wearing a mask in a room full of people not wearing them

It depends. I'm sometimes the only one on the bus/tube or shop, but who cares, I don't know those people. Usually there are one or two others. On public transport I've found it up and down depending on what's in the news/media week by week.

I've been at a couple of house parties recently where a couple of other people have been fully masked (probably a step up from N95), no eating/drinking indoors etc. But if that's what they need to be able to do a bit of socialising then who am I or anyone else to disparage that.

I no longer habitually mask for work or leisure. I've noticed that a few people now mask if they've got a cold, frankly I wish more of my colleagues would rather than openly coughing/sneezing etc.

You want a certified Retrofit Coordinator. It's complicated even for a standard home, and a retrofit coordinator will give you advice on how it all goes together, phasing and impacts etc, which someone very good at one aspect might not be able to.

Also check out SELCE/ Future Fit Homes - did some very good webinars over the last couple years which are available online, a few retrofit house case studies and a few more about the principles of.

https://www.futurefithomes.org/blog - the Harry Paticas one from 28 Jan 2021 is excellent.

We're not far from you and this is the rhubarb patch today. Give it a couple of years and yours will probably be the same! Two years now, looking forward to plentiful cropping soon.

I actually like the Station the best.

When I've dropped in to the Brockley Brewery taproom somehow I find the clientele annoying. Like a garden party or one day festival everyone seems entirely too self-congratulatory. Loads of kids running around entertaining themselves in the next door carparks. Not quite my vibe.

Park Fever is a bit niche and snooty.

Drink at Bob's is ok but quite small - it's in second place to the station.

Further afield I quite like the Fox and Firkin, I don't like Ninth Life, I haven't tried the relocated Catford Constitutional, I do like the Bellingham Fellowship, further still the Perry Hill pub and Blythe Hill Tavern are both good.

Haven't we had this in another thread or was it someone else? Don't think any those watches adequately monitor for AF, they do running average of beats or something like that.

Cheers, definitely on the (very small) list.

I'm going the other way. Organic materials that don't last particularly well but will decompose after use. I favour the coir bristles with no handle but at end of life you are left with a little twist of steel wire.

Recommendations for decent pub that won't be showing the rugby next Saturday? (Or it won't be all over the pub). Ideally near Waterloo or Battersea power station.

Doesn't the printer just need your email to do that, not your password?

There's still time!

Stumbled on this ambling about Norfolk, very nice.
