Does the ridgeback come in black and brown -- if so there were two of them under very poor control in Nunhead Cemetery today.

My Brompton was stolen the first time I left it outside. You get very fond of a bike so my condolences. Afterwards (ie too late) I googled "how to lock up a Brompton outside" and the basic answer is "don't" Natty Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > word of warning to bike owners.

I think this is the Government's view of the "shortages" as Grant Shapps just said ie there are no real shortages. So, in their view, you don't need a solution because there is no real problem. 10,000 EU lorry drivers who probably won't come, won't fix the petrol supply but (in their view) that doesn't matter because there's nothing to fix. The problem is perception so fix the perception with some headlines and the "problem" will be over. However, there is a real underlying problem which the supply chain companies have been going on about for months now ie a shortage of workers in agriculture, hospitality, logistics, the NHS and caring generally. Be interesting to see what happens next.

that link doesn't work for me

Quite a lot of people live in flats where they are forbidden to take bikes inside under the lease. Someone who books a space in a cycle hangar pays for a year. If they then move away the space appears, and in fact is, vacant but Cyclehoop cannot let it to someone else because it is already contracted to the original person. Maybe returning un-used portions of the initial year's payment would free up the space for re-letting. It might be an administrative problem for Cyclehoop who wouldn't gain financially from it. The sums of money involved would be quite small so people moving away might not bother to reclaim it.

Dial directly to Apcoa on 0207 708 8587 They will clear the right of way -- and also the path for emergency vehicles, as you say

Peckham Rye West open again. Buses running normally

This is a consultation on making the North Peckham estate safer for cyclists and pedestrians. It includes the Lyndhurst Way junction with Kelly Ave. This would be a good place to highlight how dangerous it is for cyclists and press for a traffic light on Kelly Avenue to create a safer crossing. Advance release would be nice on both sides too. Probably down to TfL to arrange but pressing the council can only help. https://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/environment-leisure/north-peckham-healthy-streets-2021/ closing date Sept 24th so please, do it sooner rather than later

A straight across phase of the lights ie Lyndhurst Way to Kelly Ave was planned possibly 10 years ago but never turns up. I would not do Lyndhurst Way with kids-- the narrowed crossings which help kids going to school, are dangerous for anyone without the courage and experience to hold the lane. Maybe just use the crossing at the north end of Rye Lane -- you could turn along Jocelyn St behind the Pulse and access Sumner Road that way. That's a safe approach to Burgess Park without the courting couples, shopping trolleys and hilly bits of the canal path. It would be road experience for kids without real danger.

Possibly caused by different funding streams. Charter via government academy funding and DKH via the local authority. So no one thinking about how many places are needed and planning for them. loads of EU people have gone home because of Brexit etc

Put it on the Bike Register and buy a kit to mark it. They check there when they find a load of stolen bikes.

Someone asked about El Vermut. It opened just before the pandemic closed everything. The people are lovely, they seem to have kept going ongood cheese , bread and wine.I would encourage anyone to drop in and see for themselves.

The council cannot ignore the Right to Buy. Tenants can buy property at a significant discount after three years residence with a public landlord. https://www.gov.uk/right-to-buy-buying-your-council-home A homeless person in priority need ie with learning or physical difficulties or children MUST be housed by the council if they are homeless. The prime generator of homelessness is private tenancies coming to an end. The landlord does not need a reason to end it though there is a process. Result: lots of people in expensive temporary accommodation while they wait for a public sector home (council or housing association).

An unseen bird croaking in Nunhead Cemetery -- could this be a Raven? answer: definitely a Raven. I found a site with recorded bird calls and it's either a Raven or a giant frog. I'm tending towards the Raven

These fines rise to ?900 if not paid or appealed. Court fees and bailiffs fees will add at least ?500. Bailiffs have to be paid and they will seize possessions and sell them. They know your car number and can seize your car and sell it to pay the debt. They are not under any obligation to try and get good value for your property. They can seize your property wherever it is, so your car can be seized when parked on your drive or on the road.

It will rise to ?900 and then you can be taken to court for the debt. Bailiffs may be ordered by the court to seize your property to pay it. They will have no trouble finding something worth ?900 which you own because they have your car number. If you feel that it has been wrongly imposed you can ask for further evidence, appeal and then take your case to Northampton County Court where all these cases are heard.

https://www.london-se1.co.uk/news/view/10577 "The Future Bus project, which is a set of measures to improve bus passenger experience, will also start, including provision of additional bus shelters and improved real-time information," says the TfL report. "The initial year of this project will trial different interventions on a specific bus route to promote the return of bus passengers to the network following the coronavirus pandemic, as well as helping arrest the long-term decline in bus patronage that was occurring prior to the pandemic. "Subject to the evaluation of this initial year, this is anticipated to lead to further passenger-facing enhancements in future years." The Future Bus trial is expected to cost up to ?5 million. " Maybe they will go back to the idea of continuing the route to Honor Oak station which seems a no-brainer to me

Also [email protected] works. You should get an acknowledgement, not immediately but within a couple of days. I used to use Fix My Street but southwark seemed to stop responding to it -- it was initially very good -- and I was told to use the environment email above.

In the first round small projects will be given ?20k seed funding each to support the formation of partnerships and address issues such as bringing vacant buildings into use, protecting cultural spaces and supporting employment on the high street.
