They're scum alright, who've had my big 675cc bike away twice using the methods I linked. Scooter pushing a proper bike in neutral, with the steering lock shattered. So common, every bike owner I know has had a machine stolen using that MO. I'd run the fuckers down if I could get away with it. Edited to add the word 'f u c k e r s'.

Usual MO is one on the stolen bike, in neutral, with the scooter rider pushing them with their foot. Scum. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4L6qRRwaFI

Some sad quitters are doing this to their own cars apparently.

"We don't really want a CPZ but am starting to think we have no other option. We live on Ashbourne Grove and my driveway is parked over at least twice a day or more. When you ask people to move their car etc., you get called a 'sl*t, cu*t, entitled bit*h...' They do this in front of both my and their own children. We have had threats such as 'we know where you live, we have pictures of your children'. Our neighbours cars have had acid thrown on them and nails placed in the tyres, as have we. I know people who have now put up CCTV for their own safety. Many of these people work on Lordship lane." So they'll have ED business passes, just like elsewhere in Southwark. They'll still be able to park outside your house.

I think it's good. Just waiting for Lyndhurst Way to be done, so I don't get any more punctures on my bike.

It's still there, in quite a precarious position. It's kind of focussing drivers' attention though, like when traffic lights are out; road users are using eye contact and courtesy. Maybe there should be an abandoned wreck left at every junction.

No, to paying ?125+ for no benefit whatsoever.

Its USP was that it was 24/7, even Christmas Day. However, everything it sold could be got elsewhere on the lane, utility keys, lotto etc or was either cheaper or online (newspapers, magazines), except Hermes drop-off. The staff are always really friendly though.

I only go in there to drop off Hermes parcels and now they've stopped that too.

It's insured

Intact airbag, so valuable. Your X3 wheel is ?700 on eBay.

We had this at our school in the 80s. Blew my ciggie out.

Brand New Guy nailed it. Close the thread.

"Already places like Pellatt road are reporting increases in pressure, and this will only get worse as the Dog Kennel Hill zone displaces into your area." So CPZs force residents to demand a CPZ, right? Bonkers. Also, any CPZ near LL will have to have a shared or separate business permit allowance, which will reduce spaces for residents significantly.

I loved in a CPZ, in SW London and still had to park two streets away every other day (and it's not our right to park outside our own houses anyway, FFS). And those visitors permits only have a shelf life of three years, IIRC, so you end up binning them. And comparing Herne Hill and Camberwell to ED proves my point. It will solve nothing and I will resist this all the way.

The OP must work for APCOA or something as CPZs usually result in fewer spcaces, misery for visitors and tradesmen, unexpected fines when passes expire or fall off the window in summer, and all for the cost of several hundred quid. Also, this will be the death knell for Lordship Lane?s independent shop success.

Usually when they're standing idle, they're waiting for concrete to set. Sometimes they put up signs to that effect.

CityMapper is great

We'd cope with winter tyres fitted. Just been to the alps, where normal family cars are trundling around on packed snow without any issues. Plus, they know how to drive on ice - low revs, using engine braking to slow.

Rendel's right. The last time it snowed like this was nearly ten years ago.

Bus broken down on LL not helping, plus lots of unnecessary journeys no doubt.

Try the excellent CityMapper app. It'll give you real time updates.
