    I took it as places where people are intelligent, free-thinking and with a world view. And also caring.

    Good for you, PR, I must pick up a nail/screw in my back tyre at least once a year.
  4. kford
    Anywhere there are skips, there are nails and screws. blackcircles.com has the cheapest tyres, buy them there and they deliver to local independent fitters for installation.

    On Lordship Lane this morning. This is normal practice, and has been since they were introduced, but on this cold day the emissions are more obvious with a cloud of fumes hanging at head height behind the vehicle. Isn't this illegal in London?

    Hermes all the way for me. Too many parcels lost by RM and the compensation process is hopeless.

    The farms check out, but the incline, missing toll bar and sweeping corner don't. Romantic Victorian artistic license?

    Agree, but could LL have been built up for the tramlines? Also, the grand building in the background is similar to the Georgian buildings around the Crown & Greyhound in Dulwich Village.

    Re: the 1860 print: This is looking down Court Lane from Lordship Lane. From here: It's also mentioned here: http://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-court-lane-and-lordship-lane-dulwich-london-1860-artist-jc-mandy-60105803.html

    The ring-necked parakeet has been here since the late '50s. Rumour has it that they are all descended from a flock that was released onto the set of the African Queen when it was being filmed on the back lot at Shepperton studios.

    Goldfinches. Saw/heard them in the tree top outside my house the other morning at 5am.

    It's been every two weeks for us as long as we've had the big blue bins. They do fill up quickly though.

    Watkin's Bible Factory? http://www.bridgetonowhere.friendsofburgesspark.org.uk/the-story-of-burgess-park-heritage-trail/heritage-trail-m-w/watkins-bookbinding-factory/

    There is not a camera covering these lights. Only the set at the top of DKH.

    Totally unnecessary overkill of H&S.

    Change it to a small roundabout, like Goose Green's, with zebra crossings. Cars will have to slow from all directions then and traffic will flow. There's space.
  17. kford
    I've nearly come off on this surface a couple of times. Also, it forces one to ride further out into the traffic.
  18. kford
    The crossings and roundabout are fine. Safer than traffic lights at similarly busy junctions, which have the effect of making drivers speed up when they should be slowing down.
  19. kford
    They've always been Anytime lanes, otherwise times would be on the signs. No way out of this one!
  20. kford
    Three words without spacing?
  21. kford
    They probably didn't want to be flashed by the red light camera up there

    I overheard someone bragging about banning talk about politics, economics and other polarising things at the dinner table, once.
  23. kford
    Just removing the white lines would be needed. Not a shared space scheme.
  24. kford
    Here's another suggestion, and it's proven to work: remove the white lines down the middle of the road. I've said this before (and James B. was interested). No need for unproven speed cameras. Just a little uncertainty and drivers begin to think (just like the DoT's slogan: THINK!) http://www.roadsafetygb.org.uk/news/3817.html

    She is a professional Roma beggar. The money you're giving her is being syphoned off back to the Fagins back home. Give your cash to the Big Issue seller outside St. Christophers instead.
