Top work, James.

They use Johnnies cafe too

Yes, it's that!

+1 for bindweed. Knotweed its stalk-like, as DrinkingBuddy says. It can be killed by chopping back and then funnelling weedkiller into the stalk base. The off-cuts will need to be burnt.

Good for you. This has happened to me over half a dozen times in the last few years. Only a ground anchor, cover and alarms has stopped it. Scum.

I'm reminded of this every time I walk past the two Southwark camera spy cars parked on Lordship Lane every day, with their engines running, to make profit for APCOA.

Yep, that Honda CRV is a write-off

That type of asbestos, like roofing panels, is pretty stable as long as it's not smashed up. It's the fluffy insulation/lagging sort that's really dangerous.

Condolences, James.

Shropshire is Britain's best kept secret county.

Reg number? It's a distinctive bike, with that air filter too

I heard the planes this morning, as usual, and thought this thread would open again. It's because of the wind and cloud cover.

You've clearly never lived in a CPZ. I have, and never got a spot in my street, and had to pay ?300/year for the privilege. Delivery drivers fined, family members clamped, discs dropping off windscreens, then fines...

It sounds > like you need a CPZ in your area! Sigh. If it had a valid parking permit, it could sit there for 12 months. If you've ever lived in a CPZ, you'd be glad we don't.

No CPZ please. Just hop in it and roll it down the road.

Could hear in on the south Circular by Dulwich Woods. Suspected it was on Dulwich College grounds or nearby.

Down until lunchtime. 'Rodents have chewed through the fibre.'

You'll get around ?1000/day for commercials filmed in your house.

Report it. These are bike thieves.

Waze has definitely sent me around some roads I would never think of using.

It's the school run mainly. It's really quiet in the mornings now, and when the schools are open, generally quiet after 0915 until the afternoon. A CPZ will kill the high street.

Heard scooters buzzing around at around 0430. Fellbrigg area. Possibly linked.

RAC covers the driver in any vehicle, AA the vehicle only AFAIK. I'm with RAC for this reason. However, make sure you have Homestart as extra, otherwise they only attend if you're a certain distance away from your address. They also won't recover if your vehicle is immobilised due to attempted theft or vandalism, as I found out recently.
