There was a similar issue with one outside our house, near the junction with Silvester Road. i reported it via here: https://www.fixmystreet.com It took a long time for it to get fully fixed, all the things that IntexasATM mentioned had to happen first, but it's been fine for a good few months now (actually since January, just checked!), so do persevere!

If you?re planning on picking up a parcel today bring something to read and a flask of tea. They are incredibly slow and the queue is huge.

I think it?s meant as a temporary fix. Over the last few months TW periodically leaflet the nearby cars saying they?re about to embark on repairs. What usually then happens is one of their vans parks there for a few hours with little sign of them actually doing anything. They often don?t even leave the van.

I reported the Mulberry Close one to the council recently. They referred it to the Highways agency who tarmaced over it on Wednesday. By Friday the tarmac had completely disintegrated and was strewn all over the road. I have raised it yet again, hopefully they fix it properly this time, I have little confidence that they will.

There are a few people (including me)swapping via this page: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?9,1934008,1951807#msg-1951807

Can anyone recommend somewhere other than football magic for a 6 year old wanting to get into football? We did the football magic taster and it was a bit of a throwback, very little actual coaching, 20 kids all swarming round the ball at the same time. My son left in tears after being berated by several kids for letting a goal in. I wanted to find somewhere that would foster a bit of enthusiasm but this has sadly had the opposite effect. He hasn't played much before so we're looking for somewhere a bit more hands on and fun where the emphasis is more on developing basic skills, passing etc rather than a disorganised mass-kickabout.

James Barber, are there any plans to do anything about the Barry Road/Underhill Road junction? Problems seem to me: - Traffic constantly backing up on both sides of Underhill. - Hard to see out from Underhill (Friern Rd side) onto Barry Road as there are usually Church Minibuses blocking the sight-lines. - Difficult for people to cross Underhill at peak times due to volume of traffic crossing or turning in to Barry Rd. - I know of several pedestrians who have had near misses from cars turning right out of Underhill (Friern Rd side) who have not realised the lights at the crossing were red. Thanks!

Is anyone else collecting these?? We've got a bit obsessed with trying to get hold of them all in our house. My son has just unwrapped a Witch (number 4) which he already has and would like to swap it for any of these: 6: Fly Man 8: Zombie Cheerleader 13: Businessman 15: Big Foot Thanks!

Another recommendation for Bradley from Perfection. He came at the drop of a hat to help us clear up after a break-in. Top bloke. His number is 07946 328565.
