Bellenden Rd & North Cross Rd ‘High Streets for People’
sandyman replied to bels123's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Real Life was released in 1978. Yes it is a classic album. -
Saw the aftermath of another phone theft on east dulwich grove by trio last night. Then half an hour later spotted them biking back to 'work'. Crazy the police can't do anything about this - they are clearly cruising the same streets.

Can anyone shed any light on what Southwark Council spends the money it makes from events like Gala on?

Anyone else having wi fi problems

Seems ok at last now! -
Virgin media seems to be down or is it just us? Wondering if due to high local demand due to park events?

Stolen Car Still in the Area - Looking to Retrieve
sandyman replied to LB171's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
That's interesting that the system can do that and at least give you some information - when my camper van was stolen around seven years ago nobody ever mentioned it being spotted on ANPR. It actually received a parking ticket in Beckenham but even though the theft had been reported the ticketing process didn't flag up that it was a stolen vehicle otherwise it could have been recovered. Good luck, I'll keep an eye out. -
CPZ in Dulwich Village ward to go live on January 6
sandyman replied to Glemham's topic in Roads & Transport
The car with five tickets doesn't have any more yet so maybe the wardens haven't been down this week or maybe they are showing a rare glimmer of sympathy for someone who presumably isn't aware of the new restrictions. Can someone explain in simple terms what the point of making Calton permit parking was? It's not really a street where commuters parked to go to the station, it's not a street where parents dropped off their children for school - and if they did I expect they'd still do that quickly and hope not to get caught. I've walked down there today and there are hardly any cars parked on the street - most of the residents have drives so the council surely won't make much from the sale of permits. The only people it seems to be hitting are people that work on those houses or nearby - in the village or the schools. Who will mostly just park on the next streets along which don't require permits. -

I hope these are only warnings as this car now has five. -

Shouldn't all works be done before a CPZ can go live? -

The record is now four... Also the sign at the Woodwarde Road junction with Calton is possibly even better hidden than the one at the Townley end. And there are no bays indicated by lines (except the disabled bays), which would usually be a hint to go and check the signs. (where my mother lived in Essex for example, you couldn't park on her road between 1pm & 2pm and there were yellow lines all the way down the street, so you'd always check the signs) -

Yes, three is the record so far. What are the rules if your car is parked somewhere unrestricted and then a CPZ is brought in while you are away? Asking for my friend Giles who parked his Cortina in an Athens side street in 1986 and hasn't had time to collect it yet. -

Actually if I was to put money on it I'd bet it's a fourth option: One hour for non permit holders within those hours (and unrestricted outside those hours). but it is utterly confusing. By the way, I think the signs might have been put high because when they were lower they were vandalised and this post is right by a bench for easy vandalism access. -

Can someone clarify this sign please? Does it mean even with a permit you can only park for an hour or if you dont have a permit you can still park for up to an hour? I assume its the latter but then why does it say "permit holders parking only past this point"?
