El Dude, do you have a connection to the new place?

I used to live next door to a hostel for those with addiction problems and its fair to say that whilst many of the residents were pleasant enough, it also contained a fair number of challenging / chaotic individuals. Of course there will be hostels and hostels, but it's not unreasonable to be cautious about who you'll be living next door to when buying a property.

Fair point

I doubt it, the funeral courtege is not for turning

Anyone know when it's due to open?

Anyone know when it's due to reopen?

The dog ran into someone, which in itself is quiet dangerous and suggests that it wasn't under control.

I am really sorry to hear about this. I hope you're boyfriend doesn't let it play on his mind.

There is also one in Burgess park and brockwell.

I would certainly be interested in buying a couple.

"The proposal is for 20mph between Goose Green and Melbourne/Whateley Roads." .... So wouldn't effect The Plough junction (where it may serve a purpose).

The independent article has made me really depressed.

I feel much more threatened by the van drivers doing 50 down CPR than the odd suicidal lycra lout. I regularly see cars jumping lights and chatting on the phone. All the evidence suggests that cars, and vans and lorries are responsible for the vast majority of accidents as well as contributing to pollution and congestion, and yet people always want to relay their anecdotes of rogue cyclist. There seems to be a disproportionate / irrational focus on the minority of bad cyclists that I really don't understand.

My objection is that there is no evidence that it will reduce average speeds, it won't be enforced by the police and will lead to more signs, painted road surfaces and visual clutter. I would rather see some enforcement / policing of problem driving which seems to be completely neglected because its not such an easy tick box response.

I really don't understand the level of vitriol aimed at cyclists. There must be some psychological mechanisms worth studying here. Any Institute of Psychiatry EDsters fancy looking into the irrational level of cyclophobia out there? It can't all be down to gullible Clarksonphiles.

Most non-selective schools cater for very small, local catchment area and kids tend to walk.

I live opposite a primary school and its fine, no problems.

Littlejohn is a pathetic.

Her arguement is extremely weak.

I've always thought of ED as South Peckham.

Completely agree with everything djkq said
