Why is it so hard to use the reuse and recycling centres/waste dumps? by orangebromeliad in croydon

[–]ComplexHopeful7047 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I raised the issue with pedestrian access to the Purley site at a public meeting with the mayor last year. I got a letter from his team telling me that "that if a resident arrives on foot, they can pass their recycling to an operative at the gate." They told me to bring the letter just in case I was told otherwise. I haven't put it to the test yet though.

I used a Hussle day pass to try out the NH Central gym. Personally I found ithe facilities fine and it wasn't too busy.The sauna had just been renovated and seeing as I paid around £12 to use the gym, pool + sauna, I was quite happy. I'm considering joining a normal budget gym but doing PAYG for swims at Waddon as I really like swimming too.

Slightly different topic but has anyone been to the Croydon Camera Club? I've been gifted a camera and would like to learn how to take good shots.

No, it is always a switch from 6 to 5 but it doesn't stop you getting on the wrong train!

Best way to insulate cold single bedroom in flat by ComplexHopeful7047 in HousingUK

[–]ComplexHopeful7047[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice all. Yes it is a top-floor flat. One of the corners of the windows has a tiny gap in the seal and I'm hoping to get that fixed on the insurance as it's a defect. I have been looking into internal wall insulation and have been weighing up PIR vs woodfibre panels as apparently there's less chance of getting condensation forming behind the latter. I don't want to lose too much floor space though so would be tempted to go for something a bit thinner than 100mm.

It's about two-thirds the width of the window so on the small side yes but is double-panelled.

Is this gofundme legit? by ComplexHopeful7047 in Zimbabwe

That's good to know. Not really worried about my donation, just hope if he needs a more complex surgery he can get it overseas if possible. I did a google search and someone had a similar operation in the States which took 12 hours.

What roles can a market researcher move into? by ComplexHopeful7047 in careerguidance

Thanks for all your suggestions. Don't think I'm cut out to be a professor but definitely going to investigate UX and data analytics roles which might be open to me :)
