https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/ultra-low-emission-zone/ulez-where-and-when Even if you make a short trip in the zone using a vehicle that doesn't meet the ULEZ emissions standards, you need to pay the daily change. However. if you are parked within the zone but don't drive, you don't need to pay the ULEZ charge.

We did this and subscribed to Zip Car for a year. That made it clear that we didn't need a car at all but it was a good transitional stage. I think their rules may have changed and this https://www.zipcar.com/en-gb/car-hire-london/southwark may well be out of date

I ran along the Harris Boys bit of the park perimeter this morning. The only bench I saw was a fallen tree trunk carved into a very nice seat for two. Very isolated from the road and also (by water) from the rest of the park. Everyone who experienced this has my sympathy. I experienced something similar in Nunhead Cemetery (many years ago and completely different person). The police were very concerned by the danger this person posed to women and girls. Stay close to others would probably be best advice. And report everything to the police.

It's not a no through route sign. It's a timed restriction.

Also look at their exclusions. If this is marked as a flood risk area you may be offered a high excess. Dulwich had flood prevention measures on the park about 10 years ago and these plans for PR have been coming for about 5 years. Climate change is affecting flooding frequency. Many of the watercourses around here are just under the surface.

You should report it to Veolia and, if they don't respond, to your councillor Give Veolia the date, time and street. They should be able to identify the guy.

If you can find the frame no I think you can find the registration (if it's registered) from that. https://www.bikeregister.com/bike-checker

The Peck flows through the grounds of what was Waverley School, under Homestall Road road and into the park. I believe the council has lost its path through the park. Clearing the brambles off the banks near the pond allows it to flow and has revealed the wild iris on the banks. The patch of wild flowers near the junction of Strakers Road and Peckham Rye East is on the site of the old paddling pool. This was contaminated by a spring underneath it which couldn't be stopped from entering the paddling pool water and led to the pool being closed. The land below this patch of wild flowers (between the dirt path and the road), is very marshy and I guess the underground spring continues to flow.

Or use Opera or firefox browsers which have ad-blockers built in as default. You can't expect Chrome to block ads since it is Google's whole business.

If as you say you own a share of the freehold, are you talking about shared ownership through a housing association? Otherwise, as a part owner of the freehold, you are a shareholder in the company which owns the freehold and can express your views as such. The management company works for the company which owns the freehold. That means that as a shareholder (with others) in the company which owns the freehold you can decide to improve the the poor insulation. You are part owner of the company which is these people's ultimate landlord. The other owners of the freehold may be the direct landlord ie agreed the tenancy

Tessa Jowell have just invited a friend to have the vaccine.

Re lateral flow tests: "The tests are specifically designed for use on people with Covid-19 symptoms and are most effective at identifying those with high viral loads, who are the most infectious. They are supposed to be administered only by trained professionals. The government is mainly using the tests on people without symptoms and they are carried out by school staff, meaning their accuracy drops. Official figures from a trial in Liverpool found they missed 30% of people with a high viral load and half of the positive cases detected using a standard nasal swab." from the Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/14/regulator-refuses-to-approve-mass-covid-testing-schools-in-england?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other There are PCR tests for those with symptoms. These tests (explicitly for those without symptoms) seem to me likely to be misleading.

The Kennel Club accepts that dogs can carry Covid on their fur -- just like any other surface really https://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/health-and-dog-care/health/health-and-care/a-z-of-health-and-care-issues/coronavirus/ "There have been a very small number of reports of dogs testing positive for the novel coronavirus following contact with infected humans. However, those animals didn?t show signs of the disease and it is believed they tested positive due to breathing in contaminated air from infected humans or carrying the disease on their fur. As with any surface, if someone with Covid-19 touches, sneezes or coughs on a dog, the virus could temporarily contaminate them. Although we don?t know how long Covid-19 can survive on surfaces, scientists think that it could range from a few hours to several days, depending on the type of surface, how warm it is and levels of humidity."

And also very noisy. And very territorial, all year round. I think the noise is bickering about the boundaries. Our robins fight for the same reason.

The point I don't understand is why people who are unable to walk or cycle but can drive are somehow stopped by the distance they have to drive increasing. If I am walking or cycling and suddenly I have to walk or cycle twice as far, I can see that this might be too much for me (or another person). If I can drive (and own a car) the doubling of the distance (from one mile to two for instance) is not a great burden. I can still get to my favourite shops -- it takes me longer but I am inside a nice warm car, with a comfy seat, and the only physical problem is to move my hands and feet quite short distances. Which, with all due respect, is not a big ask. In return, the disabled car driver gets clean air, people walking and cycling to watch through the window and peace and quiet.

Come across to Smiths in Nunhead and visit Sopers and our various delis and greengrocer at the same time.

Yes, I've had a series of these. If you let your cursor sit on the sender's name, the sender's email will appear. This is usually a giveaway ie something inappropriate [email protected]. TVLicensing is another one -- warning that I haven't paid for my licence. The DPD one is newer -- so thanks for the heads-up

https://www.southwark.gov.uk/libraries/find-a-library some are and some aren't. from the website A phased re-opening of our libraries is now underway, starting with those which can be opened safely and in line with government advice. The following libraries are currently open with a reduced service: Blue Anchor, Brandon, Camberwell, Canada Water, Dulwich, Nunhead and Peckham. Please note that on entering a library you will be asked to provide test and trace information and wear a face covering unless exempt. Check our safety measures and find out more about the services we can currently offer here.

If it is this difficult to tell, you might be able to mount a defence that the signs were confusing. A rule of thumb is that people cannot be expected to follow the rules if they do not know what they are. If you want to do this, I should ask for their photos, take lots of your own. Check that you really are right, or at least that a reasonable person would find the situation confusing, and then appeal.

Citizens Advice. You have a penalty charge notice. They should have a photo of exactly where you were parked. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/law-and-courts/parking-tickets/appealing-parking-tickets/appealing-a-parking-ticket/

This one https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53219331 gives the impression they will be legal England-wide but this, later, one is saying they will be legal in trial areas only. The trial areas don't include London.

Oxfam have a good second hand book shop in Herne Hill. Worth a visit, book lovers. https://onlineshop.oxfam.org.uk/shop/local-shops/oxfam-bookshop-herne-hill

Dulwich Park is locked at night (5pm at the moment). Similarly Peckham Rye has an access road which is closed with a metal gate at night.
