Not sure why you felt the need to mention their colour.

talk talk seem to be aware of the problem. You'l probably get a better response if you tweet @talktalkcare They'll ask you to fill in a form and will then follow up via email. Various tweets suggesting that this is a nationwide problem rather than just SE.

Not sure about Overhill but for comparison, Crystal Palace Road is not usually gritted and when there's more than an inch or 2 of snow, the junction with Goodrich becomes a clusterfuck of incompetent motorists who obviously just *had* to make their journey, sliding all over the road. If you're that worried about it then perhaps best not to drive in the snow unless you absolutely have to.

Have you got the mail account set up on any iOS devices i.e. ipad or iphone?

And another telling me no further communication after 22:00: Apologies if your power is still off. Please be assured that our engineers will continue to work through the night to restore power to the area as quickly as is safely possible. Texts updates are not sent after 22:00; however our customer advisors are available 24 hours on 08007838838

Latest update which means nothing given the context of the previous updates, some 2 hours ago: UK Power Networks Update at 21:20 - Engineers are on their way to site to investigate the loss of power in your area; the reason your power is off is a blown fuse at your local substation. Work will continue as quickly as possible to get power back on.

Just received this text, but still no power here. UK Power Networks We're very sorry for the loss of your electricity today; all power should now have been restored. If you are still experiencing problems with your power please call us on 08000280247

Engineers onsite at substation @ 19:40. Blown fuse confirmed. Roast chicken definitely not happening, curry ordered.

T-wats is s censored word? lol.

Another problem is that it's not obvious to many cyclists that the path is actually one-way (from the library up Rye Lane). And another, is the odd positioning of the push-button at the traffic light junction, again not obvious to many. And another, the way a lot of cyclists see it fit to come off the crossing by the library and cut straight across the pavement rather than follow the clearly labelled start of the path. Yet another problem is the speed that some cyclists feel is necessary when using it, though this has more to do with aggressive, inconsiderate twats on bikes than the implementation of the path itself. Perhaps, Renata, you could also raise the first 2 issues here. As for the 3rd, maybe an increase in PCSO's at the crossing to politely warn offenders not to cycle on the section of pavement would have an effect?

Really can't wait to go to the opera tonight.

Bonjour, tout les monde, As the title suggests, I will be doing this ride at the end of April 2013 with a few friends. Exact route is to be decided but we'll start at Marble Arch and finish at the L'arc De Triomph, probably leaving the UK from Newhaven. Anybody on here done this before and if so, any hints/tips/suggestions on route/accommodation/what to pack and of course a training schedule? Merci Beaucoup et Chapeau!

And it's not even underneath the lights, it's positioned on a pole to the left of the cycle path, completely unintuitive! I only noticed it when I saw someone else using it.

DJKQ, I use this path pretty much everyday and yes, it is a PITA as it's so badly marked out, but I've never had a problem with the cycle traffic light - it's ben working fine everyday for the 2 years thatI've used it. The problem is that it works on a push-button system, just like a pelican crossing - I suspect you haven't yet seen the button as it's not the most obvious of things if you're unfamiliar with it - I regularly arrive at the junction to see cyclists sitting there waiting for the green light, unaware that they have to push the button.

Most good army surplus websites will sell them.

As I said, I believe this to be a faulty machine rather than any intentional tampering. The card was read, the transaction was accepted and I was prompted to take my card & wait for my money. Finally my card was retained my the machine as was getting caught on the lip of the slot. There was certainly nothing stuck to the outside of the machine as I spent some time examining it for fear of exactly that. More of a heads up that the machine is faulty and you may be without your card for a few days than wishing to cause any alarm.
