Whore 😳

You can get a butter maker in a kilner jar that involves adding cream and lots of hand cranking Sounds fun and you also get butter milk as a by product, great for making your own bread with to spread your own home made butter on

It's the new format of crop circles Aliens are trying to communicate with us They are saying "stop the council imposing a CPZ as we won't be able to land our flying saucers"

Thinking about this and the drive to cut pollution by cars, the report The Reshaping of British Railways (or Beeching report) was published on 27 March 1963. I do wonder if the idea at the time to make railways a profit driven organisation, along with cuts to public transport including the loss of trams had a direct effect on increased car ownership as there was little viable alternative to get to places easily. With hindsight would the Beeching report have been different and would car ownership been lower ? Interesting to speculate but impossible to say with certainty

I'm still trying to understand in this thread and the other how you can distinctly say it's human and not a large dog ?

It's all about the money Reading the document http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/documents/s80898/Report%20-%20Car%20parking%20charges%20in%20parks.pdf It covers 6 parks with car parking facilities 6. Responsibility for the management and maintenance of these car parks rests with the Environment and Leisure Department. The maintenance costs are included within the Grounds Maintenance contract and cannot be specifically identified. However, for the purposes of this report, an assessment has been carried out which estimates that the total cost of the carparks is ?42,000 per annum. ..... 29. The estimated annual parking charge income for 2019-20 is necessarily an estimate and past experience has shown that the figure could change based on external variables that the council cannot control. The surplus planned is modest and allows for a margin of an error so that if the income is less than anticipated it will not result in a net deficit. 30. It is estimated that this exercise will generate at least ?200k of net income in Parks and Leisure Division and this is being incorporated in the council?s budget setting process for 2019/20. 31. Staffing and any other future maintenance costs connected with of the car parks parking will be contained within existing Parks and Leisure Division revenue budgets However 18. There is a risk that new restrictions may cause parking to be displaced and, indirectly, have an adverse impact upon road users and neighbouring properties at that location. However this cannot be entirely pre-empted until the recommendations have been implemented and observed. Thetefore they expect to make over ?200 thousand a year from the parking charges plus remove the ?42 thousand a year they currently spend on car parks but to do this they would have to guarantee cars park in the parks and not in the surrounding streets ... I wonder how they can do that .... IMHO ?42 thousand a year spread amongst all council tax payers is pennies each and hardly a justification to make car users pay and remove the cost from non car users , especially as we all know council tax bills go up but never down so non car users won't see that saving in their annual bill Whilst they put a thin veneer over it all talking about environmental impact, they are still planning for over 100,000 hours of paid parking each year, if they really wanted environmental changes then they would make it restricted to disabled users and electric cars only

Hi James So the mad idea of removing pedestrian refuges at crossing points is still happening along crystal palace road ?

Both , being metrosexual I like it both ways 😂 At least I think that's what it means

What Caught my eye, with the current proposal for a CPZ in the area is section P52, page 76 Controlled Parking Zones 6 Development within existing or planned CPZs will not be eligible for on street resident and business car-parking permits. Reasons Private cars take up much more resources and space per person than many other modes of transport, particularly walking, cycling and public transport. Southwark will grow sustainably without adverse environmental impacts through car free development in highly accessible areas and reduced reliance on the private car.

Hi James Have you manage to find out what the design differences between what was consulted on and what is now proposed for the quietway in east Dulwich ?

This year I've removed all my carpets and burnt all my clothes to defeat the pesky little buggers Whilst it is working, my neighbours and the very occasional postie are still not used to my new Scandinavian attitude of walking around in the nip On the plus side my bathroom is now a rather lovely sauna and Alpen has never tasted so good

Simple solution to both problems Use your local high street rather than a faceless corporation 👍
