Nope

And I bet it is a friend of Tory govt minister who owns the company producing the books?.

Excellent post Rockets - was having this exact conversation with a DV resident this morning - look forward to hearing if there is any response

Would be nice if the police had some presence in the locality. There were at least 50 officers hanging around Crystal Palace park last weekend for the wireless festival

Wasn?t there some sort of ?fair? there recently with people dancing in the square - pretty sore they were blocking access for cyclists - who no doubt had to weave between the musicians and odd couples twirling about - are they idiots too?

Ab29 - spot on

Saw him on a Santander bike on Woodward?s road Friday. Who do we call - it?s hardly a 999 emergency?

They have spent god knows how much and taken weeks to do bugger all. Could they not have just painted black and white lines to create a crossing zebra crossing. Utter waste of our time and money by the current idiot incumbents

We had a similar thing some weeks ago - h was wearing a hat and a mask so hard to describe. He took a parcel from our doorstep and left and empty box with a hill court road address.

It?s over ?1000 as they appealed on the basis of unclear signage and massive delays in receiving notice of wrongdoing- and of course the fines escalated whilst being appealed

What frustrates me is that the signage is not very prominent and the gap between the infringement and the issuing of the penalty- a small local business that works in the area (dulwich village in particular) managed to incur around 25 pcns before realising their mistake - a gap of 5-8 weeks before the first fines dropped thru the letterbox.

I would like to add that if anyone else has a similar experience there or feels threatened at any time please go into the Herne (when open) where the staff can keep you safe and contact who you need to. Edited to say pretty sure this applies to any local businesses- I remember Emily?s fish bar helped in a similar situation.

Thanks for sharing

Oh crikey I thought It was just me with the anti - owner thing!! Delighted someone else is as angry as me !!!

Yup same thing here - have book marked since

I am so disappointed in our council - they have presided over the most astonishingly decisive policy which has created anger and disbelief- the principal aim is good but the implementation a total f***k up. I am a good weather cyclist working for a lot of different small businesses- this is having a desperate negative impact on small local businesses- if there was some sort of permit based thing which allowed businesses with a proven record of operating in the ?zone? and stopped needless journeys?

.

Brilliant!!

Thanks Alan medic x

A small landscaping business has just been hit with a flurry of fines - but they have taken 2 months to arrive which means they have been accruing loads in the interim. Please no one suggest they use a bicycle to transport heavy materials?. Looking at appealing as this feels just wrong for there to he such a delay in sending out

No it is all paid for parking now - there is pay by phone info I believe on the few signs there

Part of the problem is that breweries have put their prices up so the cost price to pubs has been seriously jacked up

Legalalien - yes me too - it seems the whims and fancies of some people who may have no connection with an area are steamrolling an agenda. One imagines there to be due diligence- but there are many Southwark employees who are not familiar with the area at all (I have a friend who lives in lewes and a relation based in Nottinghamshire who both work for Southwark council. I feel there needs to be an understanding of an area before imposing such changes and a willingness to examine the results.

Lots of green signs on south circular- don?t blame them!!
