intexasatthe moment

I see that if you're changing at Canada Water to go to Canning Town you need to touch in at CW or get charged as though you've come from zone 1 . Someone tell me if I've missunderstood ,otherwise I'll assume I've intepreted correctly . Does seem a tiny bit likely to catch visitors out .

Thanks ,that's what I thought ,just wasn't sure .

I was comparing capped daily fares with weekly travel card options .

Thank you ed . So ,sorry to be so dense ,but help an old lady travelling from Peckham Rye in zone 2 ? travelling from Honor Oak Park in zone 3 ? and whatever the answer is to my questions above do the zones remain the same if travelling from Canning Town back to Peckham Rye and Honor Oak ??

Trying to establish for a visitor . ( Lord help the visitor trying to work out travel costs in London ) when I search it says 2/3 .

I'm sure this is a noble exercise but ......Cuppa with a Copper ? Will the whole Dixon of Dock Green vibe be going on ,will there actually be bending of the knees and a reassuring "Evening all " .

Guilty as charged -)

For clarity I don't think my PM to Admin was me telling Admin ,but me expressing my opinion about someone else's thread "Well it's always going to be a matter of opinion but my point is that the thread was to my mind - and who knows as it was Sue who wrote it - about Thames Water ." Personally I think the thread should stay in the main section - it may be commenting on Thames Water's performance ( generically )but it is also commenting on that performance in East Dulwich specifically and how it affects residents there . But I'm not actually a fan of splitting hairs about threads qualifying for ED section or Lounge .

I don't imagine this will stay here for long as not on topic ,but as we're discussing it ... is the title not part of the post ?

I wonder if Admin can sense that not all posters share the dislike of a thread title that doesn't include enough detail for users to decide whether to open or not ?

Thanks for updating and clarifying PeckhamRose.

I think the post from ponderwoman was pointing out that there are other cruelties that can be objected to as well as the current terrapin situation . Not quite sure how you drew your rather strange conclusion from the post .But I guess meanings can get mangled in the written word .

thanks sheff - prefer eyes on to TFL updates .

At least the temperatures are low now ,if a strike needs to be called better now than back in the summer .

Pugwash thanks - good to know that there are/should be procedures to avoid this sort of situation . I suppose it's possible that the person herself when it became obvious that she would be v late home fed up with waiting and longing to be out of the hospital and at home ,resisted attempts to get her to stay . And I suppose it's also possible that she dismissed the ambulance crew and didn't want them putting her to bed . I find it hard to think that the ambulance staff just abandonded her in her wheelchair at midnight . Well ,I hope there's more to the whole sorry event .

then they phoned me to say district nurse couldn?t make it today would I give her injection - WHAT ! Now that I do find outrageous .

I can't help thinking that even if this was the result of a failure on the agency/carer provision aspect - why discharge such a vunerable person in the middle of the night ?

I can't believe that the hospital just discharged her without checking - something has surely gone wrong . Delayed hospital transport ?? Agency failure ? Promise of carer on discharge not delivered ? But definitely bring to attention of PALS ,hopefully they can find out what went wrong .

Blimey - no that's not acceptable ! And if she gets pressure sores from sitting ( and potentially ) weeing in w/c all night ,it's going to end up costing the NHS more .Oh ,and possibly inconviencing the poor person . I think contact PALS at the hospital and explain what has happened .

Very amusing all . Not quite the same though . And nice of mc to take the trouble to post .

Pretty poor customer services from TW all round - on another matter ( noisy manhole covers ) they have contradicted themselves and refused to discuss more than one cover .

How do we know that an increase in demand for water rather than an ageing and failing pipe network is causing leaks /bursts ?

It's odd isn't it ,we're in Barry Rd and our water supply is and has been fine . I'm not sure how it would help but I'm happy to offer water to anyone nearby who needs it ...

Yes that would be my thought . I wonder if you should report it? On line form here https://www.met.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/soh/something-youve-seen-or-heard/
