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.

I've nearly come off on this surface a couple of times. Also, it forces one to ride further out into the traffic.

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.

They've always been Anytime lanes, otherwise times would be on the signs. No way out of this one!

Three words without spacing?

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.

Just removing the white lines would be needed. Not a shared space scheme.

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.

Black cabs have only this year started using 2.8L Euro6 diesels, so, pretty much all of them are running older tech. Their own website says the Euro6 is 71% more efficient than Euro5. All old cabs, plus the 13-year-old million-mile 53-plate buses I pedal behind up Dog Kennel Hill, spewing out visible particulates, should be addressed ASAP. Lead by example.

The camera doesn't cover the lower part of the bus lane. Yet.

Every year this debate comes up. Just remove the traffic light Pelican crossings and replace them with simple table-top Zebra crossings, like on Peckham Rye. Those green traffic lights give a false sense of priority for drivers, some of whom confuse them for junction lights, so speed up to try and 'beat' them.

They were seen trying to drive off in a car with wobbly wheels and very loose doors.

That car will be clipped by a truck before long

The police told me the thieves take to the pavement and alleyways when being pursued, so there is some sense in their actions.

I know bus lane cameras are usually small CCTV units on posts, often doubling up as traffic monitoring cameras. There was one outside Denmark Hill station, but it's been taken down.

It's pushed the parked cars right into the path of vehicles turning left from Lyndhurst Grove. Nearly caught be out while riding past the other night when I was confronted with a dark car jutting out right on the corner.

All linked to the ongoing spate of motorbike thefts, made all the more possible by the police having their wings clipped in the pursuit of the perpetrators.
