TNT postman and post bike
TNT Post UK are now collecting, sorting and delivering their customers' mail directly to West London addresses - I knew this because Royal Mail's Regional Operations Director for London sent a mailshot to West London homes complaining about TNT "cherry-picking" profitable areas. TNT postmen with bicycles have now become a regular sight around our streets. (This postman was happy to be photographed).
[edit March 2017] TNT later gave up direct delivery to residential areas, so all mail is delivered to houses by Royal Mail.

Does a Psychic Festival need to advertise?
I am always amused by these regular posters for Psychic Festivals in Ealing as I reckon that if the practitioners are successful they shouldn't need to advertise, just use psychic processes.

Christmas tree recycling, North Acton Playing Field
A corner of the playing field is set aside for Christmas tree recycling after 12th Night. During lockdown, the playing field is empty, just a few people walking round the perimeter, normally at this time the field would be full of football matches.
