I live round the corner. I've only just seen this crossing. The whole thing seems bizarre to me. The road is not a busy one, and I can't see any need for a zebra crossing in that position. Have I missed something?

I'm still waiting for an item and/or its replacement, so I don't think whatever the problem is has been rectified.

Oh, and also Grab. But I'm not sure if that's already been mentioned (probably by me :)) )

My understanding from what has been said in the thread previously is a) You do not pay the charge unless you are actually driving in the zone and b) You only pay the daily charge once no matter how many times you go in and out of the zone and/or drive within it. Anyway, it seems sensible to go for automatic payment, then you can see what you have been charged for and why, and if necessary and possible and preferable avoid doing some of those things in future, eg moving your car from one side of your own road to the other ......

Royal Mail must then show you your signature! But I thought even Royal Mail took photos these days? ETA: If anybody else is trying to respond to Ad... 's posts, be aware that apparently the trainer name is banned in forum posts (why?!) so you will not be able to include their name in your posts.

So it's posted alright here. Very strange.

Well I've reworded it loads of times and I still can't post it. This is it: Adidas_guy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I received electronic proof of delivery from Royal > Mail which says a parcel was delivered to me at > 13:54 today and apparently I signed for it?. > However it was not delivered.

Ah, could be that though I have no idea what! I'll have another look, thanks ianr. Clearly I can post in this bit ok ...

I'm unable to post on the ED issues page. Anyone else? Of course if it's a more general problem I won't be able to post this either!

Slinkissimo, I have PMed you.

Unfortunately, though, Lloyds don't collect empty blister packets for recycling. I asked them when the local Superdrug said their branch didn't. I believe any pharmacy will take out of date and unused medication, but I may be wrong?

So do Superdrug at Camberwell Green according to the website. I've got a massive bag to take there, but I'm going to phone first just in case. The East Dulwich branch told me a while back that the branch was too small to do this.

Thanks DKH. Glad I found this out before I did something irrevocable (like buy another car) :))

Thanks both. I need to rethink my car strategy now! So if you start in the zone, then drive out of it, but drive back in within the same day, are you charged once or twice?

Cancel culture

Which GP surgery was that?

Is that true That may be a game changer for me if so. I thought it was ?12.5O for every day your car was within the zone, parked or driven? Can somebody post a link which states the rule very clearly and unambiguously, please? Obviously when I say is that true, I'm not referring to Lowlander's figures 🤣

Congratulations on your new job!
