Somehow, Bermondsey & spa do not go together in my mind. Probably because my grandparents lived in Boss St in the 50s & 60s.

High winds and heavy rain forecast but not currently raining and Calmac have not been sending out warning text messages. Strange.
When I looked out about 8 o'clock the bins had been emptied and I never heard a sound. Good job mine was out yesterday.
The timetable the local council puts out has been designed to be confusing and a neighbour yesterday agreed that they had difficulty with it also. We both had the wrong bins out last week.

That's annoying. Hope next time is smoother all round.
Enjoying the various feline overlord/lady news on here. I had to distract one of ours from trying to wake up our teenage daughter. Not that she had any risk of success, she just woke me up instead.
After a couple of days of wondering why everything felt like such hard work I have come down with Mr Hebe's cold. All plans cancelled.

Did Boss Street use to extend past Queen Elizabeth Street? The remaining part is not at all residential but there's been newer housing built to the north, housing which may have replaced your grandparents' home.

I will listen to Pop Master and then go out side to do some work . A skylight needs cleaning and so does the new old bike .

Noticed sink was taking longer and longer to drain. Just cleaned out the u-bend. Let’s just say I have enough material to restart life on Mars. Yuck!

Indeed it did, all the way to Shad Thames, although my memory seems to say it ended at Gainsford St. My grandfather worked for Courages so had a little terraced house. My uncle had a sweet shop & tobacconist in Grange Rd.
Just checked another map on https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=16&lat=51.50369&lon=-0.07721&layers=10&b=8 & clearly my memory is correct.

There used to be a Virgin Mobile shop in Bedford but they closed it last year. Maybe something to do with the Virgin/O2 merger? I haven't looked to see if there's an O2 shop anywhere.
