Well apart from coming up against the odd weekend bunch blocking traffic, cycling as if racing and causing chaos on roads that are not closed I cant say as I've come across an organised event. They mostly just go out in large numbers and do what they do best, look stupid and cause danger...

I was very saddened this morning to hear of the passing of Bernard Hepton. Often underated as Toby Esterhase he was (along with Alec Guiness obviously) the star of the George Smiley TV adaptations. Bizarrely I started watching Smileys People on You Tube on Sunday. Let's hope that his passing...

The flat has a concrete slab then floating floors on timber joists. I think next door fitted real flooring but didnt bother putting insulating membfane down first. What makes it worse is their shower pumps noise. So bad the council has banned its use from 11pm- 7 a.m. The annoying thing is they...
