After Covid, lockdown and other mishaps, Community Speedwatch is staggering back on the road. There's a new guy in charge from the Met called Christopher Billington [email protected]. He's trying to get in touch with all the regular volunteers and find some new ones. I wrote this https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/66-in-a-20mph-zone/ blog post on Speedwatch a long time ago now but it gives you an idea. If you know a particularly dangerous spot then let Mr Billington know and he will check it out and (if he agrees it's dangerous) then he'll organise a Speedwatch session there. To volunteer, mail him (see above) with details of your wishes and availability. Give it a try. It's fun. For more det ails DM me or text 07543 842160

There's a big one on Queens Road quite close to central Peckham. It's got a front office where you can walk in and report ask after lost belongings etc

Cafe G on Peckham Rye has air conditioning

The Plough junction is open. The temporary lights still there but the roads are open. No sign of police

Is it closed at the Plough? Is the crossing still open from Barry Road?

I'm told the Met want to restart CRW (AKA Speedwatch) but they can't access the database of volunteers. I don't know why this is. So, to carry on being involved (or get involved for the first time) please email [email protected] and [email protected]. Tell them it's OK to use your email address for CRW. Sally

plus +++ hundreds. The quality of the school is what matters not its description

I'm not sure how much input the council has over the Harris academy in Peckham. It describes itself as "an education charity run by teachers" and has 31 schools in London and Essex https://www.harrisfederation.org.uk/80/welcome-from-the-chief-executive

Does your mate have any tips for putting off cats which are using his garden as a litter tray? Perhaps between the foxes and the wee he doesn't have this problem?

Babies are about the same size as a buck rabbit with less ability to defend themselves. So be careful etc

I feed birds (squirrel-proof feeder) and squirrels eat the bird-rejected seed off the ground. This morning a grey squirrel was leaping in short but high leaps persistently around the back garden and appeared to be trying to catch something very mobile but too small for me to see from a distance of about 15'. The jumps were very like a cat I saw trying to catch a mouse. Trying to catch an insect? Anyone know or seen this behaviour?

St Saviours and St Olaves CofE secondary school uses the field and has refused attempts to buy the lease. There is also a St Olaves https://www.saintolaves.net/# in Orpington. The history of the school https://www.saintolaves.net/21/history-of-the-school page sets out the relationship between the two schools

Or B&B Glazing in Gibbon Road, Nunhead

I haven't but what I use for route-finding is cycle.net. I recommend it

could someone put the link to the survey on here please?

Three jobs done for me in an hour, quck, neat and efficient

who owns the freehold? Both of you? Just the people downstairs (because they own the land) or a third party? To whom do you pay ground rent?

" campaigning" is covered by the laws on election literature, which, by law, must contain lots of detail about the originator. Full details here: https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/imprints-election-campaign-material

Conceiveably parking offences or similar in Lambeth. Attempts to remove car to pay the debt met with threats of violence, therefore police involvement

surely that's Southwark

Bristol has one coming in the summer https://www.bristol.gov.uk/streets-travel/bristol-caz

what email did you use? I agree that it's a silly approach. Vans on the pavement are hazardous for pedestrians no matter what they are working on. They should need specific permission to park on the pavement which is an offence everywhere in London

parking on the pavement is an offence enforced by the local authority. Phone Apcoa on 0207 708 8587
