Hi lovely souls, I am looking for two wooden breakfast/bar stools.. free or to buy.. namaste x

My partner spotted someone this week rifling through our bins. Apparently when she saw him, he saw her out of the corner of his eye and rushed off to his car and drove off in a hurry.

I cross shred all of my documents/letters anyway, but it's still a bit concerning. Seems like an attempt at identity theft/fraud. Just be vigilant and shout out if you see anything suspicious where you are!

Doing a bit of digging into this and shocked to read the following: "In order to match the energy used to create and transport the fake trees, you would need to reuse the tree for almost 20 years." If you were thinking about getting an artificial tree this year, maybe you'd consider a real tree? There are lots of places where you can buy a tree locally, so no need to drive miles and rack up your carbon footprint. https://relevantmagazine.com/article/is-your-christmas-tree-good-for-the-environment-update/

Side by Side is a new service preventing isolation and keeping people with dementia active and engaged in their community, enabling them to continue to ‘be themselves’ and live well with the condition, through regular (usually weekly) one-to-one meetings.

Hello all neighbours.
I have got a very good cleaner who has got a lot of work experience. She is reliable and hard working person but her English is not perfect (she can understand you, and just in case you can contact me). She can do ironing as well. Please contact me if you need someone to help you at home.

Wimbledon Beekeepers’ Association is very keen for local people to take up beekeeping on their own private land, particularly in large gardens.

Separately, the association is looking for land, such as unused parts of allotment sites, scraps between other developments, to use as apiaries, with perhaps 20 hives.

For an apiary, a plot about the size of a tennis court, screened from the public view and with vehicle access is ideal.
For further information please contact ;
