The BBRR should so be bought back.

If they do bring in a CPZ perhaps we could encourage something like this: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/may/17/sun-terraces-and-lawns-dutch-residents-transform-parking-spaces

Apparently I joined on 26/09/2007. Over 5,000 posts. I'm wasting my life.

There are chains which could work there, but not a PE.

It could work as a pub /restaurant, but it would be more profitable as housing. A cynic might suggest that this is why there has been a fire followed by a long period of dereliction.

I can't believe that Pizza Express would do well in that location. There are so many better pizza joints nearby (and also a PE in the Village).

... and when you say a lorry, I think you actually mean a truck, if you look at the definition....

The accusation of homophobia, is ridiculous. Describing the two men as being a couple is simply that, a description. also, it seems to massively miss the point, which is that the OP's wife was verbally abused in the park, which is a pretty horrible experience. This forum is getting beyond parody. To also pick on the choice of wording used and argue over the definition of 'assault' - I mean, come on people. If someone said they were run over by a lorry, driven by a white man, with red hair, would you offer support, or argue that a lorry can't run and that the drivers ethnicity is irrelevant.

I've had a couple of picnics in the park interrupted by dogs stealing food and / or knocking everything over. I've also had dogs jumping up and barking at me as I jog. The truth is that there are a lot of people who have their dogs off the lead and out of control (not a majority, but still a lot) and it's pretty unreasonable. It's a shame that people aren't all considerate and responsible, but they're not and it should be possible for others to go out their 'park business' unharassed.

Thank you James for all your hard work. I am really gutted that you didn?t get voted back in. All the best.

I regularly see two small cars taking up enough space for three big vehicles. There is always going to be some underutilisation of space, but by marking out regular spaces, I think over all you would see an increase in capacity across an entire street.

I'm not suggesting meters, or any enforcement. Just that by marking out spaces, you encourage people to park tighter together. That's why I said 'nudge'. My road regularly has cars almost an extra car length apart from one another. If you marked spaces, I believe you would reduce the number of people doing this. Could always pilot it on one street and see what impact it has on behaviour.

How about marking car distances, to encourage people not to park with 3/4 of a car length between them and the nearest vehicle. A bit of a 'nudge' to use the available space more efficiently. I reckon you could get several more cars on every street in Dulwich by doing just this.

By 'regulating the service', don't they just mean 'slowing every bus to the worst on the route'.

Oh FFS. Just keep your dog on a lead when you're in a 'dog's on lead' area. Be respectful of other people and try not to impose yourself, or your pooch on others in ways which they may not appreciate. It's pretty simple.

It's OK. Dave on Twitter, has this all covered. Chuka Umunna on @SkyNews going on about letting the people decide the type of Brexit we finish up with. The people have already decided Chuka. Brexit that means Brexit. Simple.— Dave Roberts.🇬🇧 (@Bolddigger52) April 20, 2018

More of a problem for commuters than staff, I > would think, unless its an all day CPZ . So School staff will have 'to park outside someone else's house'? Nice. Why would a CPZ only effect commuters exactly?
