  1. It looks like the remaining section of (what was once) a path, scored/keyed to help prevent users slipping.
  2. the reply email can be a clue too (I think !).

    Green roofs

    moss would look good, but I think needs plenty moisture.
  4. Just keep moving the barriers, it's a minor inconvenience - agreed.
  5. It's a bastad walking my hound through that walkway !
  6. @James Barber: "so many are so adamant nothing should or can change". Spoiled your post there, sir. Crystal Palace Road is now a considerable mess through large parts of the day, worse than I've ever known it in 30yrs. Coincidence ? No. Drivers are understandably intent on finding other routes, because closed roads have converted the main arteries into mere traffic queues. The belligerent nature of these changes tells us a lot about the decision makers' capabilities/limitations.
  7. The businesses on MG need compensating, not just for financial loss, but for the stress and inconvenience of having to face (with no consultation) the very real possibility of their business ending. Heaven knows how many ?10,000s individual owners have piled into their business to initially set-up then operate through this period of road closures. Council will take business rates off you with no favours, then threaten your business longevity without your so much as having a say-so. Complete lack of awareness (one would hope) and abuse of position. Out of control, power unto themselves. Very amateur.
  8. ha ha, please list what are Southwark's strong points ?!
  9. ww I agree, but it's just not a decent business plan, with ?millions at stake.
  10. If you go to Goose Green around 5.30 - 7.00pm each day this seems to be already happening, en masse ! We take our pup there some days, she loves it.
  11. Excellent work Dougie, thanks. (I wasn't after names, just 'who'/which role in the hierarchy)
  12. Nice one Dougie. Have you any idea WHY they closed the petition, what the process to decide on closing it involved, and who (which appointments) got to participate in the decision to close the petition.
  13. who knew 7 yrs later the Tory party would be carrying on with bluster and BS. probably, we all did, if we'd thought about it. "total wind power by 2030" ? Please.
  14. I'm all for reduced traffic, congestion, pollution. What you don't do is implement instant changes, with little/no notice, without providing alternatives (and yes, some of the alternative is drivers adopting mindset to cease short journeys, etc.). There needs to be an actual long-term strategy with specific goals and measures agreed, which rolls forward years ahead and is shared to all affected people at the start, along with updates on the way. How many hundreds of thousands of people bought diesel cars because the Govt said that was the best thing to do, only to now be being doubly-penalised (ULEZ and CC) when driving through town ? And soon ULEZ will be expanded to entire North/South Circular diameter. At a time when a lot of people are struggling for money and likely will be for years to come, forcing them to buy a replacement car or be fined for being in their own neighourhood is plain predatory.
  15. the closures have had an impact on other roads. even without 'evidence' it's obvious to see for reasons people have already mentioned above. you're always going too refute a photograph or question and readings on a pollution meter anyway. the only way your point could possibly make sense would be if all the original traffic, which used the roads now closed, had actually vanished into thin air. that's the only way there could be zero difference from the closures. and if those cars have not actually vanished (probably the more realistic proposition, right ?), then they must be somewhere. All parked at home with journeys deleted ? Nope. All taking new routes that don't include our postcode ? Nope. Oh wait, perhaps they are trying to now navigate the remaining roads which are still open and that causes congestion and centralises pollution to the main arteries ? Oh yeah ! eastdulwichhenry Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > > it's easy to like road closures It's the impact > on > > the other roads.

  16. there may be online translation utilities that will accept an image upload (if you photo the document pages) then scan it for Polish. (other) script.
  17. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
  18. I think when you fill in the petition, you have to supply a postcode and house number, which I think would contain fraud?
  19. I expect they have shut down the petition because it is a strong message which they don?t want to hear. It also defeats the point of a petition which is to gauge concern.
  20. I?m sure there will still be some idiots determined to drag their kids around complete strangers? houses after candy. But yeah, best stay in with the kids and decorate the window and have a different take on Halloween for this year.
  21. I think Trump wants to (has been advised to ?) avoid the debates because he realises (has been advised ?) he's an absolute liability unable to keep his mouth shut, spouting more BS every time he opens it. Let's see the test evidence. IMO he's faking it, like he's faked being POTUS the last 4yrs. ETA: fixed typo
  22. Can't see it on their website. Thanks.
  23. most of these cameras last years if not dropped or mishandled, in my experience. I am not a camera expert, but have used cameras.
  24. I don't think it was ever going to happen anyway. But forget it for 50yrs now, country's broke.
