New London Yard Forum 

  

The Discussion Forum that has been part of this website for over a year has, thanks to Owen Pearson, of Vermeer Court, been superceded with something much more polished and professional.

Any londonyard.com user can read the messages posted in the Forum. To write your own messages, or to respond to existing postings you will need to register. You can use your pet chat room name if you are shy. Just click on the Forum Icon to join.

The For Sale and Wanted forums replace the Noticeboard feature of this website.


Releasing Gas
No, not from a residents' meeting but from under the lining of the pond. London Yard was once a swamp and methane gas builds up under the pond causing the pond lining to rise. Periodically, this has to be pumped out by Barry Morgan and his mate.

Yard May Be Part of the Congestion Charge Area

Transport for London is set to investigate whether it could make the whole of Tower Hamlets part of a new zone, or if a "bubble" could be built around certain areas, such a Canary Wharf.

A TfL spokesperson said: "The London Mayor will look at various schemes if the initial phase is seen as successful."

Police Cannot Pursue Bike Gangs

The East London Advertiser reports that the police will not pursue motorbike gangs that are damaging grassed areas in the local parks - and London Yard.

Sgt. Atkins, from the Isle of Dogs Community Police Team based at Manchester Road, is reported as saying that the police do not have the resources to respond to calls.

Cockney On-Line 

Everything that you didn't think you would need to know about being a cockney. History of the East End; cockney rabbit (slang); the secret east London and locations for films and TV series. For instance, did you know that the first episode of "The Prisoner" (1967) featured very fast driving through the Rotherhithe Tunnel? Well, you will find other things that are actually interesting on this site. 

Warning - the opening page contains loud music.

Merry Christmas

Londonyard.com would like to wish all its users a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.


Attend the AGM 

The Annual General Meeting for shareholders in the London Yard Management Company Ltd (property owners) has been arranged for upstairs at the Pier Tavern on Wednesday, 15th January 2003 (7.30 p.m.). The original meeting in December was cancelled because of a failure to send out the necessary paperwork on time. Shareholders were, however, given a generous two days formal notice of the cancellation.

This is the only occasion when Yarders can express any concerns that they have to the Board and managing agent.


   

History of London Yard

  

Lovelace

The first computer was invented by Roger "Duffy" Billingsly, a British scientist. In a plot to overthrow Adolf Hitler, Duffy sent his machine to the dictator. The plot worked. On April 8, 1945, Adolf became so enraged at the "Incompatible File Format" error message that he shot himself. The war ended and Duffy began working for IBM. 

  

"I've had good luck in the Bond Market. I bought an 007 lunch box at a car-boot sale for £25 and sold it on eBay for £300."
