New e-vecicle charging points on Townley Road
Tatty Mum replied to Nigello's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Indeed public charging points can be more expensive than fuel. Polar Plus is cheaper than Source London (which I only use when I would be paying for parking anyway) you get a free first year but Ubitricity sockets in lamp posts is the way to go. Yes I am an obsessive plugger-in of my PHEV otherwise what is the point? I don't have a driveway but if I did I would go pure electric. I agree that discouraging car use is desirable (some families in my road have two cars) but the nature of my job needs me to drive late at night but if car sharing was more viable......... -
New e-vecicle charging points on Townley Road
Tatty Mum replied to Nigello's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I have a hybrid, ?9 to ?10 to charge on the dedicated Source London Points plus membership -after the first year of ?4 per month- (these points are often blocked by electric car club cars plugged in but not charging Blue City is owned by tge same French company that owns the charging points) this give an electric only range of 28-34 miles, the Ubitricity points in the street lamps for the same amount of charge cost ?2.28 via an app with no membership = no brainer. Love driving without adding to the emmissions but we are a long way from it being an easy choice and if I could rely on an electric car club vehicle being readily available would have no hesitation in not owning a car. As for Townley Road, expect to regularly see a row of Red Blue City Electric cars more or less based there permanently, can't wait! -

Can anybody genuinely recommend their builder to take down a supporting wall and chimney breast between kitchen / utility and downstairs WC to create a new kitchen/ diner including all associated works? This is quite a big job which we would like to do this year We have had a series of jokers come along as a result of posting a job on mybuilder.com who think the fact that they can start right away is a recommendation. Also any experience of builders using Howdens in Goose Green Trading estate? We don't want to hear direct from builders recommending themselves as we intend only to short-list from genuine recommendations.

I need somebody fairly urgently to remove my P shaped bath - there is water leaking into the room below (slow drip) I have isolated the hot supply to the shower mixer taps but cannot reach the cold valve. The bath needs to be removed to identify the cause and fix, then refitted to reduce gap and a new panel will need to be fitted. Any recommendations gratefully received Thanks in advance

Actually Southwark is a smokeless zone and if this is regular occurrence the Council can prosecute, you have my sympathy my neighbours burn any old stuff in their fireplace and some winter nights are piling smoke into the atmosphere. Report it here http://www.southwark.gov.uk/air-quality/reporting-air-quality-infringements

Check that you are not being billed by cubic foot when your meter is metric and therefore cubic metres - this can result in being overcharged by 2.83 times. Very common when you regularly switch suppliers and they are never in a hurry to refund you the difference - http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theoneshow/2009/12/is-a-gas-meter-mixup-costing-y.shtml
