  1. But more fliers and small parcels/ packages which takes longer to offload.
  2. Here's me thinking it was because of the posh street name and exclusive location 😁 Seriously, you may have a point. We always seem to have a small PO van parked up here of a morning and for an hour or two sometimes whilst the postie do their rounds. We used to have a regular bloke for quite a while but not for the last month now. It can be one of two others that seem to chop and change. Next time i get a chance i will ask one of them what their new routine is. I do think that they're actually delivering more small packages and fliers etc than they are actual letters. So much of what was regular post is now doable online. Rent statements, utility bills etc. Actually thinking about it i can't remember the last time i received a paper bill or invoice.
  3. No problems here at the Gardens. We see the postman everyday bar bank holiday and Sunday's.
  4. I entered my predictions then changed one but mustn't have pressed enter because i have no points for the weekend gone 🙃
  5. Only just noticed this thread. Have joined.
  6. After you,,,,,,,,, The subject and discussion is based on a crime and how it is or isn't being investigated. That will open other avenues of thought and debate but is still relevant to the topic.
  7. Not necessarily. The types of crimes may and do change. Coldharbour lane for instance had one stretch of it back in the 90's that was an open crack market. That has gone and now it's full of late night bars the crime levels are still quite high but not drug related. More violence and anti social stuff but crime all the same. Football is another one. There's much less toe to toe violence to the extent it's quite rare but the arrests for drug possession ( bugle) have soared. As has the numbers for hate chanting / racial/ homophobic chanting.
  8. I'm not and yes i know they are. I'm also aware of that. I mentioned the carnival in my post
  9. Resources/ prioritising? Most of London's OB will be over in west London for a few days. Also if he's not known to them where do they look? How much manpower can they afford looking for a thick racist that's put up some unsavoury graffiti? It's hard enough getting them to come out when you've been burgled. That's quite an assumption. You are assuming those that know him are aware of what he's done. I wouldn't have known about his antics if i didn't use this forum. I'm a long term resident, get about the manor on a regular basis but don't recognise the geezer. Nor has anyone else on here.
  10. Blimey. They look tougher to call than last weeks.
  11. It's a great job apart from the time one finishes It was much easier when i was in my 20's/30's. Still fun all the same.
  12. Yes. What genre of music?
  13. You said-- you just know this will be spun as overwhelming support for Southwark's car/street plans-- I don't just know. It never crossed my mind until you made the assertion. Organisers' responsibilities a formal risk assessment is not required, but you should think about what could go wrong and plan accordingly; major things to consider are: fire, bad weather, electricity and vehicles entering, leaving and remaining within the area of your road closure to close the road, barriers will be provided by FM Conway (subject to availability) during the week before the party organisers are responsible for putting these into place to close the road at the agreed time a clear route, at least 4 metres wide, must remain along the entire length of the road closure for emergency vehicle access
  14. Try this site. It usually works to bypass paywalls. https://paywallreader.com/
  15. It never crossed my mind. You do have a habit of trying to force your theories onto others and presenting them as facts. We had a closed street day here a few years ago. It was a success, fun, well attended and was never weaponised to push anything.
  16. All cars? Every single car parked on the road? First i've heard of that. Hardly a vote winner and it would be a huge hit in revenue streams for them.
  17. Proper south London lingo that, mush. Absolutely and ditto. Oh i do. I also know that many residents aren't fussed about Gala doing their thing. It's all about opinions isn't it!
  18. I'm just by Kelmore and i see him everyday and most evenings.- He's well known by most of us here but no idea if he lives locally. We do have a few regular four legged visitors but nobody seems to know where they might hail from. What i do know is they get well fed because neighbours put a bowl of food out in the back garden for them or other passing moggies. A few years back there was a beautiful friendly little chap that done his rounds. All white body with a black patch on his face. He'd come and sit on the window ledge outside and let us know he was there. Put a small bowl of sardines or tuna out for him to eat. Then he'd move on. It turned out that there was five other households doing the same thing and we were just another one of his many pit stops when needed 😍 Currently and along with matey above there's a stunning tabby with white paws that's appeared out of know where. They do tend to come and go bar the odd one or two who have been around for a few years so presumably local.
  19. Did you not play in the street as a kid? It's a one off annual event. It's hardly going to give kids a habit. Who are you anyway? What with Gala and now trying to imply things that many others won;t agree with. What do you mean by - but do I want to encourage the idea of kids playing in the street- no ? For one they're not your kids, mush and secondly what makes you think you'll be encouraging anyone? We had the event last year and it was a success for both kids and parents/ neighbours. Even if i put my hand up and admit to feeling a bit nostalgic at the time. I presume you only live on one road so stick to encouraging the families and kids on YOUR road to come to your way of thinking and stop trying to piss on other peoples chips when it's none of your bloody business.
  20. Yes. It gives me a reason to have an interest in the premier league again. Plus it's a bit of fun.
  21. I'll have a go too.
  22. Sorry to hear about your ordeal. Sounds absolutely horrendous. Hope you manage get some witnesses to come forward and get things resolved to your satisfaction.
  23. I wasn't aware of that. I thought it was being mooted that is all. No. It's common land and shouldn't be used as a business venture.
