You are only allowed to pick your top 5 from the whole list and then score those 5. It's an incredibly badly designed survey and very poorly put together! I'd imagine many people will abandon the survey before completing it.

Only just found out about this... From the southwark planning portal: 17/AP/4421 | Change of use of the upper floors of The Cherry Tree Public House from ancillary staff accommodation (Class A4 Use) to create an up market bunk house hostel (Sui Generis) | 31-33 GROVE VALE, LONDON, SE22 8EQ http://planbuild.southwark.gov.uk:8190/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=summary&keyVal=_STHWR_DCAPR_9575882 The Cherry Tree has submitted a planning application to transform their staff accommodation to "bunk house hostel" It will create 47 bed spaces across 5 bedrooms on the first and second floors. Application Received Date Thu 23 Nov 2017 Application Validated Date Fri 24 Nov 2017 Expiry Date Fri 19 Jan 2018 Actual Committee Date Not Available Standard Consultation Expiry Date Thu 28 Dec 2017 Decision Made Date Not Available Decision Issued Date Not Available

Just a warning in case anyone is counting on using it that the car club car on Derwent Grove has been clamped.

Helen Hayes raised this issue at a debate on rail compensation Response from Minister Claire Perry: Commenting on the choice of services withdrawn in teh emergency timetable ?Where there were alternative services where people could actually make an alternative journey on an additional service .. that those were the services that would be withdrawn temporarily in order that 85% of service could run? ?I was not aware that the replacement bus services were just an invitation to take a bus journey so I will take that up because I had reviewed carefully the planning of alternative provision and had been told it was satisfactory?

Now apparently down until tomorrow evening, 3rd time slippage. Wouldn't be so bad if the call centre wasn't so unhelpful.

Apparently virgin fix time now estimated at 2pm, not holding my breath, it's ok though as they have given me ?1.30 in compensation. Off to buy some fizz to celebrate the payout. Awful customer service, and not an isolated incident. Keep meaning to switch providers!

James, are you able to find out what has happened to the traffic phasing at http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1426742,page=30 - its causing daily traffic tail backs? many thanks

Absolutely right - have been using this route for the past 4 years and it's never been so bad, at 8am tailback to the hospital with no reason ie no roadworks.

I must admit I hadn't heard about this before... Thought others may be interested: Redevelopment of existing car park and car wash site to provide a part 3, 4 and 5 storey building comprising 60 residential units (21 x 1-bed, 26 x 2-bed and 13 x 3-bed) with associated landscaping, amenity space and access to basement which provides 30 car parking spaces and 70 cycle parking spaces.

The no win no fee claim chasers may start handing out business cards soon ;0) . Could any type of temporary lighting be set up until they are fixed? cheers.

A new planning application has been submitted to Southwark for demolition and building work to convert a house on Derwent Grove into 3 flats - conversions of single dwellings like this is the real reason why parking is so tight - and something a CPZ wouldn't tackle. Hasn't reached planning consultation stage yet, though the scaffolding and skip has appeared already. Can't quite imagine how they will fit 3 flats into one house, certainly isn't room on the road for 3 cars!

If you want to collect the true feeling of the community about parking then why put it on a survey that also asks about who you are going to vote for and whether you would be willing to display political posters or campaign on behalf of the party? This is bound to skew the responses. I'd suggest our Councillors consult the guidelines of the Market Research Society for what is proper opinon research - and not cliam that anything that is sent out primarily as a political marketing tool is a 'survey'. (this is a non-partisan point as most of the parties use this type of tool). Rant over ;0)

Also found the food good - but cringed at the awful practice of automatically adding a service charge. I was happy to pay it but don't feel it should be added automatically on the bill when this was not signposted on the menu.

Sorry to hear about this - I'd advise fixing them onto wheels with cable ties to make it a bit harder to remove - though it does make it harder to change your wheel.

Thanks all for such useful advice. You've encouraged me to give it a go. Now where did I put the bolts for stabilisers.......

baseman2 .. I'm considering cycling to the wharf as well - how's the traffic on the route - is it a daily dice with death? thanks!
