Turning the engines and refridgeration units off is the simplest idea. Otherwise they'll deliver in the day and block LL, like the Dutch flower truck.

Take your pick from McD's, BK, Nando's, Subway or KFC. Nando's looks like the only possible fit, even though the food there is disgusting, especially the soggy chips.

It's either then, or in the day, blocking LL with a 30-tonne truck, and being ticketed, the cost of which is always passed onto the shopper. I think night-time deliveries in London are a good idea, for that reason.

Yes, noticed that today on Peckham Rye - it's the parakeets mainly, but there's a blackbird that going mad in my back garden, probably protecting a nest or scaring the cats.

Traffic calming has the opposite effect. It's probably because of the hold-ups caused by the roadworks, a kind of 'traffic calming' device, if you like.

The bloody amusement arcade survives, though. It's the LL shop equivalent of a cockroach. Someone's going to tell me it's closing now...

Curry favour Borrowing a cup of sugar from Tandoori Nights.

Snorky, you should go on Dragon's Den.

Nero Ken is also literally drunk most of time, according to city hall mates.

Everyone I know who does the Pickle method has great results with a happy, contented child.

"Just doing their job" Isn't that what the Nazis used to say?

They get paid ?8/hour too; surely that's better spent on their cause?

Some definitions of the word 'chav', just to keep you bikering: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=chav

Muzzle them.

They're a great idea. Wandsworth use them everywhere.
