The Croydon
The Guardian (Free subscription) | 3 hours ago
Some years ago, at Lunar House in Croydon, where the Home Office processed visas for foreigners, I was given a ticket number many hundreds from the one being served. Resigned to a long wait, I sat and opened my Guardian. A man offered me his ticket, with a very low number. Suspicious, I asked why. He said he had only come to accompany a friend and decided to give his number to the first person he...

I am full of cold with a urinary tract infection. The first signs of the cold came after New Years Eve and I thought it simply a cold which might go to my chest which is usually something I find more unpleasant and takes time to clear up. There was one year soon after starting school where I seemed to have every childhood illness going from mumps to chicken pox, but the major problem was having a weak...

Dieppe Raid 2009 Intrigued by talk of Dieppe when Charles started riding with Sou'westers in 2007, he did not catch on to what it was all about for 2008. Circumstances changed, and he wondered whether it would be suitable for grandson Jack,15, in 2009. Asking around, it seemed that there was no reason why not; he had already been on some Wayfarers' and Beginners' rides. So, for his Christmas 2008 present,...

Ladywell Councillors Sue Luxton, Ute Michel and Mike Keogh have submitted a response to the Loampit Vale proposal. Sue stresses it's not the official Green Party position. The comments are broadly constructive and they have found much worthy of praise in the scheme, while seeking clarification on a number of issues relating to parking, traffic, healthcare facilities and the low level of social housing...

Quite a few calls from agents today, including some jobs that sound very interesting. What I’ve noticed is that I never hear anything back about the roles that sounds particularly interesting, just the run of the mill stuff. I guess the interesting jobs get absolutely deluged with CVs so can pick and choose people who look to be perfect. My first call about Metastorm work as well, so there is...

WHEN Mrs Powell, the new headteacher, officially opened the Riverhead Infants' School Summer Fair at 1pm on June 20 the skies looked threatening, but luckily the weather held and lots of fun was had by young and old. There were 33 different stalls including face painting, a teddy tombola, books, lucky dip, bric a brac, toys and bottles, while the thirsty and hungry were catered for with international...

A colleague and I are currently working night shift on an LUL Signalling project in London. We must have really annoyed some one in the company, as we are on permanent nights for the whole of the summer. In fact we haven’t been to our Croydon Office since February this year. Although we haven’t actually been anywhere near Coventry, we both feel as if that’s where we’ve been...

I was pretty excited about visiting Croydon last week for the private view of Georgina Cook’s degree show. As many of you will know I’ve been a great admirer of her photos for many years and was thrilled when she agreed to let us use her images for the first two issues of Woofah (including the front covers). Recently [...]

The house pictured, located in Croydon, Surrey UK, was being extended into the loft space. The loft tanks for the hot water system and radiator header tanks had to be removed to make way for the new accommodation. Our challenge was to provide a new heating and high pressure cold & hot water system in an [...]

Looking at the index I see that I raised a blog last year about Wimbledon 2008 so it is only right that I do the same for 2009. We were fortunate to get tickets in the LTA (non players) ballot for the first week (could hardly be the second week could it as that hasn't happened yet) so Mrs Claus and I set off for SW1. Our usual trip, across the bridge and down the A20 to Croydon and then a tram all...
