  1. I wasn't very happy on day one with the new forum but I have found that with use my feelings towards it are improving. If you give the new forum a go, hopefully as you become more familiar with the forum, it will become easier and therefore enjoyable to use.
  2. Neil, Unless you have agreed with the insurance company's valuation already, you can negotiate for a higher value if you can't buy a similar aged and condition Range Rover for the money they are giving you. From your post, it wasn't your fault, so your insurance company should claim back your excess from the other driver's insurance.

  21. Below is the update that Rita has sent out to all the people who signed the petition. If you haven't signed (18,618 have) please see the 2 BBC news reports on www.downe-kent.org.uk and I hope that this will encourage a few more to sign then perhaps the chapel will be saved. The last time I updated you we hoped for 15,000 signatures prior to presenting our Petition, but it now looks as if we are going to exceed 20,000. WOW - thank you all for your continuing efforts. On Battle of Britain Day Friday 15th September, I, along with a group of Bromley residents, went to Westminster to deliver our Petition to three Secretaries of State and the Prime Minister. However, the London Borough of Bromley continues to attempt to discredit our Petition, and they remain adamant that their plans will move forward. The gates of the Chapel are chained and contractors have been observed in the grounds. THE REMOVAL OF 26 TREES AND SHRUBS AND THE DEMOLITION OF THE VESTRY COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME, SO PLEASE DO ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF TO GET THIS HALTED. To view the two BBC TV news reports please click here to go to the Downe Village Website where they can be accessed below the Orchard item: www.downe-kent.org.uk The second report shows the Battle of Britain Service held on Sunday 17th September, after which members of the Choir left in tears, vowing never to sing again in the Chapel if the Vestry is demolished. The Petition will remain open, come what may, so please keep forwarding it to all sympathetic contacts. https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/protect-biggin-hill-st-george-s-raf-chapel-of-remembrance Thank you all, Rita Rita Radford started this campaign on the 38 Degrees Campaigns by You website. If there's an issue close to your heart that you'd like to campaign on, you can start your campaign here.
