I have spent the day expanding my skill set (and tool kit) with a day of weatherboard washing and cleaning for a fellow neighbourly user (see attached picture). Contact me on 022 154 6876 if you'd like your house to receive a similar upgrade! I have the tools (again, see attached picture), all I need is an outdoor tap! Stay tuned for more updates in the coming days as I build my skill set further.

If you're walking in Beckenham/Sydenham today there's a dog water bowl/pot by the letterbox @81Tennyson Street.
If your neighbours dog is barking or you witness strange animal behaviour, please check up on them, they could be dying of thirst...
As for the innocent animals that have had their water supply altered by human intervention & shelter belts removed (aka inhumanity), I hope they survive... :(

We keep getting last demands and debt collection companies and I’m sure she’d like to know about these. It appears that her car registration has our address. I have returned the mail to sender and called them but there’s nothing they can do until the address has been changed by her. She has never lived at our address because we’ve lived here for 25 years.
