James - is there a mechanism for removing with dropped curbs where they are no longer in use ? With a CPZ these are lumped in with active dropped curbs and yellow lines across and beyond them reduce parking spaces . See this thread /forum/read.php?5,2024596,page=1 for comments like these below Re: Parking ticket for parking across a dropped kerb Posted by Lynne April 28, 06:25PM There's an old dropped kerb in our street that now has a brick wall built across where the cars used to go.It seems unfair that anyone could be penalised for parking there. I'm not talking here about the council's recent access dropped kerbs, just old redundant ones.

Were they locked to a stand ?

Let us know how it goes . Doesn't sound trivial to me .I think they have Trading Standards officers for that kind of thing don't they ?

MarkT not to trivialise your post in any way but I can't resist everybody knows that the boat is leaking ,everybody knows that the captain lied

cella - people have different views ,personally I think RH's robustness often becomes rudeness . I'm conscious that I'm leading this thread away from traffic management into a discussion about posting style .

I don't have time at the moment to look again at the posts and consider whether I agree with RH's judgement of them as being hypocritical but .. Rendel ,like others I often enjoy your posts and appreciate your contributions but there are ways to point out perceived hypocrisy and keep the discussion/debate going in a constructive way .I think your comments are often sarcastic and rude , tend to distract from the main issues and to close conversations down .

"It's so good of you to be so unselfishly concerned about others and not about your own ability to send nanny on the ratrun." "But then in your weird Passiflora-aggressive way you think anyone's rude if they disagree with your "let me drive whenever and wherever I want" outlook." I think comments like these are rude . They add nothing to a debate about Southwark's actions with regard to traffic management or pollution in general . IMO they detract from that debate .

Thanks se22 .I'm going to have to talk to my son for help with Skype ...please tell me I can just talk on Skype and I don't have to do the whole being visible bit ? The person who recommended the firm ( via a friend ) said it was best to phone .Which I ignored and emailed .But no reply yet so thought I'd screw my courage to the sticking point and try phoning .

Trying to phone lawyers in Montserrat and get a recorded message . It's not v distinct ( to my ear ) sounds like something along the lines of " you have reached Horizon ? Verizon ? unfortunately you do not have a business account " the message suggests contacting my service provider . Is my best bet to phone BT and ask for help ?

Oh ,I'm so sorry .Glad he was taken to a vets and being taken care of .

What a lot of exaggeration on both sides ,Champion Hill is neither narrow nor wide .Though if pushed I'd come down on the side of it being considerably wider than many streets in ED . The pavement on the East ( ? ) side of the part leading to DKH ,outside the estate , is narrow ,The pavement on the opposite side is a normal width . It's true that parked cars and traffic islands create pinch points but surely there are remedies other than closing the road - restricting parking for one .The road itself is wide enough to allow cars to pass eachother in opposite dorections .Which is certainly not the case on many streets in ED .

another fan of the No Bull burgers here - Rendell have you tried the meatballs or sausages ? If so ...can you give a verdict ?

I once ,during a stressful time ,parked my car then decided to repark round the corner . End of the day I completely forgot that I'd reparked . Reported to police ! Perhaps a similar lapse ?

savvygirl the online booking system can go overnight from "no appts available " to having bookable ones . I think appointment slots are released on a Friday morning - but I'm not sure ,there's a notice in the surgery somewhere explaining when appts are released .

Sorry HRB2 and thanks Lavender - there's a police station at 12-28 Manor Pl, London SE17 3BB

There's a police station in Peckham ,sort of opposite the bus garage and towards New Cross .5min from bus station .

I should have said that I realised you were trying to be helpful Rendel - I understand your point that a wider range of ppl can now be considered . But I will still be astonished if anything about the process of getting a Blue Badge has become much easier . Shall we not have a debate about the semantics of "much easier for ppl with hidden disabilties "v " much easier to apply for a BB " ?

Mine too first mate . I don't think anything about the process can be described as easy .I would be astonished if anything about it had become "much easier " .

Charloaf - I think that junction is in Dulwich Hill Ward and the email for the councillors for that ward are [email protected] and [email protected] Might be best to contact them direct ?

https://media.gettyimages.com/photos/april-1929-a-london-park-keeper-picture-id3325145 best I can find . Dulwich Estate had gamekeepers ( I think ? ) in Sydenham Woods so I may be confusing the garb .

I certainly do . Though perhaps not with great accuracy - weren't the clothes a sort of gingery brown and involved plus four trousers ? Or has my mind invented that ? I do remember them being very strict - cycling only allowed on the main road round the edge of the park .

Unless Bessemer has an unusual oversubscription policy I can't see how they will go from pupils comong from a large area to pupils coming from a small area close to the school . Surely those who live some way away will mostly have siblings who will be given priority for a place ? Or have things changed ?

Sorry Sidhue - wrongly attributed optimism there .
