  1. It was via my iPhone settings - asking me to reenter my password and then I realised it was blocked. Yes, I think you are right, that it has been hacked but I think the it has genuinely been blocked by Microsoft, as I didn't go via an email link. Will change passwords - thank you
  2. I have been blocked from my hotmail account since yesterday, as there had been activity that violates the "Microsoft Services Agreement'. I have followed the link provided and entered my details, including a secondary email address. Googling reveals that many have had their account locked for a month or more. I have contacted Microsoft accounts support line who were, unsurprisingly, of no help. Any suggestions? Anyone had their account unlocked relatively quickly? I will be opening a new email account with a different provider but do need access to my emails asap. Thanks
  3. Walked up Calton this morning and I didn?t seen any signs about turning left onto Townley - if there was a sign it was hard for a pedestrian to spot so must be even trickier for a driver. I also noticed plenty of cars heading northbound along Townley and Dulwich Village - perhaps there will be a period of amnesty whereby warning letters are sent before fine start?
  4. It took me 20min to get from Lordship L. Dulwich library junction to the right turn onto Sydenham Hill today at 4pm - unfortunately, it was not a journey I could do by public transport or bike.

You are deliberately missing the point - easing traffic within the village needs to be addressed in tandem with improved transport links. Otherwise there will be increased pollution, as is happening now. Secondly, it?s not a 5min diversion - it?s taking people over 20min to cross the village at peak times, others are unable to pull in/out of their driveways due to queues. It?ll be worse if/when Burbage is closed and Townley is made a school road. Some won?t have a choice about driving and this includes many teachers, because the links are so poor & existing bus routes are being severely delayed. I hope I am wrong about teacher recruitment but it will negatively impact the state & private schools, which are of considerable added value to the area.
  6. I don?t think anyone denies that something needs to be done but the process has been conducted without transparency and with blatant disregard for the impact on surrounding areas and within Village (residents and businesses). Transport links to facilitate crossing the Village have not been addressed. ULEZ will be in effect soon. There was no need to rush this through. Lastly, don?t bite the hand that feeds you - one of the big attractions of Dulwich are the schools (state and private) - the schools may run into problems with staff recruitment and retention; fancy carrying 30 exercise books on your back as you cycle home in the rain to somewhere you can afford to live? The nature of the private schools, which inflate the house prices, often mean that siblings are at different schools so even if you live locally, you may not be able to drop two young children at opposite ends of the village and get to work on time if travelling by foot/bike.
  7. Tweet it with photos, if poss - flouting central government rules and risking their workers' lives
  8. To allow adults, children, parents, non-parents etc to cycle to/from the stations and catch the train. To promote cycling & public transport use over car journeys. first mate Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > srisky Wrote: > -------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > If we are talking about the need for cycle > storage for children going to school why can't > that be made on school premises? > > posted too soon > > > > ...etc and the general reduction in traffic > during > > school holdiays across the board shows it's not > > just restricted to the private schools. > > Either all parents and children are lazy or the > > majority are just trying to manage the school > run > > and commute in the most efficient way possible, > > although not the most environmentally friendly. > > Some are just lazy. > > Of course, there is a large concentration of > > schools in under a square mile in Dulwich, > which > > compounds the problem. > > > > There needs to be a lot of secure bike storage > > facilities at Herne Hill and North Dulwich to > > encourage public transport use, > > perhaps a "walking bus" to take pupils from > > schools to stations, > > better police/community officer visibility to > > encourage parents to allow children to walk > > without the fear of muggings. > > I don't know where the funding for all this > will > > come from, though.
  9. posted too soon ...etc and the general reduction in traffic during school holdiays across the board shows it's not just restricted to the private schools. Either all parents and children are lazy or the majority are just trying to manage the school run and commute in the most efficient way possible, although not the most environmentally friendly. Some are just lazy. Of course, there is a large concentration of schools in under a square mile in Dulwich, which compounds the problem. There needs to be a lot of secure bike storage facilities at Herne Hill and North Dulwich to encourage public transport use, perhaps a "walking bus" to take pupils from schools to stations, better police/community officer visibility to encourage parents to allow children to walk without the fear of muggings. I don't know where the funding for all this will come from, though.

I would also add: (3) improve public transport. It is not just private school parents, it's also state school parents - you see increased traffic around Heber, Goodrich
  11. The traffic is clearly not just due to the local private schools - rush hour traffic is significantly reduced this week and there is plenty of seating on the train, not just in Dulwich but generally.
  12. Thanks for taking the time to reply - we really liked the vibe, too. I have edited the title for clarity!
