  1. I love that some people on here are kicking and screaming blue murder about the concept of being visible to others for their own safety. Beggars belief. There was a time when people took responsibility for their own actions and safety. We should bring back the public information films including ones like the green cross code man/ tufty road safety ones and think bike to remind people that road safety is everyone's responsibility.
  2. Come now, you have seen the constant threads concerning poor post and deliveries since the Dulwich office closed and merged with Peckham Surly that alone tells you how it would compare to now as the whole system was way more efficient. But despite the complaints and warnings here we are!!
  3. Whilst I was of course making fun of the wording, there is also an interesting point being made here that cycle lanes are slowing down buses https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/cycle-lanes-have-slowed-london-bus-journeys-says-transport-minister/ar-AA1RKMlc Guess thete is a balance to be had where one form.of transport isn't penalised by another
  4. WTF, are people cycling along the tube tracks now, causing delays to tube trains as they have to wait behind that one cyclist taking their time ? How bizarre 😅
  5. WTF ? Is it that someone didn't get a Nobel Peace Prize so someone made one up as a consultation prize?
  6. Mal ??? 🤣
  7. Who deleted Mal ? Have they been added to Santa's naughty list again ? How has this thread come so far off the sensible point that for their own safety, cyclist should ideally have working lights and maybe a reflective strip or jacket after dark. I mean why wouldn't they want to stay as safe as they can ?
  8. One problem is that companies like the Big A, say arriving "Sunday" so you plan your week and without warming, normally when you are out, a few days before you get a notification saying "out for deluvery" You can't plan for that and often get home to find the package abandoned on your door or left elsewhere with no clue where. Maybe it is a sign that we should all return to shopping locally 😆
  9. Hope they have been reported to the police as that helps them target theft hotspots
  10. Could this be his inspiration. He is the LAW
  11. No one is doubting that Alice, but is this the right way ?
  12. Is it the lack of people doing jury service, or lack of judges and court rooms that slows down trials ? Personally I think its the latter but wjay doni know ?
  13. BBC News - Deputy PM David Lammy set to announce jury trial reforms - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvg1q62jmv0o
  14. I wonder if the tax will cause the £2 million plus market to stall but boost the sub £2 million market as houses sell for just below the threshold. Will a house that then sells for less than its £2 million value, say at £1,95 million then drop out of the tax or will the goverment still tax it as though it was worth over £2 million? As the tax will obly raise 1/2 a billion, will the threshold creep downwards or will more houses go into it as property values increase ? So many questions that may need to be understood better before it is inplemented otherwise there may be potential legal cleans post implementation.
  15. I'm fine thank you, and you ? Just fed up of people throwing out "you hate xyz" in a discussion because they present an alternative view. Its called a discussion forum for a reason, not a one sided monologue platform. Although now I said it, Mal will forever sound like Sméagol when I read what they post 🤣
  16. Shock horror Objecting to a policy does not dub them Haters of your precious party. Although I now seeing you as Sméagol, "My Precous, i's wants my precious party"
  17. So much bitterness is being aired here towards people who own their own house Sad
  18. If you think the government will only be taxing homes over £2 million then wait a few years till they apply a property tax to all homes. Trust me, this is only a foot in the door and soon we will.all be paying it, even renters who's rents will go up to cover their landlords costs.
  19. Are Muffins toast , or something else?
  20. Whilst you are giving good advice out to cyclists on safer cycling, please also remind them to have lights after dusk, wgetw pissible wrar bright or reflective itejs, and avoid the risk created by jumping red lights. Make your safety advice the full package as cyclists really are vulnerable and need to look out for themselves and not just tely on others doing the right thing.
  21. You can still get covid even after the jab, it just helps lessen the symptoms if you do. Might be worth testing so that you can contain it if it is 😀
  22. Barrys on Barry Road also selling them
  23. What would be great would be returning the 12 to a 5-6 minute frequency, as it was before reduction in service was imposed during covid
  24. Or is it just grilled bread
  25. Maybe they will be fitted with real loos so that the elderly can use buses more without the fear of getting caught short 🤔
