If it's the same incident as this, the ES reported that a man was found unresponsive after a three hour standoff. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1593044 To know any more I think we now have to wait, now that it's sub judice, for any trial report.

I assume this follows on from http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1574548. The planning committee agenda, documents, and minutes (items 5.3 on) are at http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=119&MID=5203. Any of the Appendix 4 files (700 kB satellite images) seems to have both application main site locations marked in white. eg http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/documents/s56776/Appendix%204%20image.pdf

If you're lot nearer to the 37 bus route than to ED station and are able to reliably check bus arrival times, the 37 bus to CLJ could turn out to be a viable, if less predictable, alternative at that time of day.

I think not everyone realises that they can edit the subject line of a post. If that post is the one that starts a thread, the change will then appear in the list of thread titles.

Mine was just right for keeping in my rucksack, to take any overflow from my supermarket shopping. But I left it at an Aldi[*] till one afternoon, and it had disappeared by the time I got back. If anyone has a spare one they no longer need, I'd be very glad of it. [*] Lidl is much pleasanter, imo, btw.

Same price as one from Kent House, and additionally seems to allow travel from Clock House.

> The form states that they've gone for the grounds of "failure of the Council to give notice of a decision." I think that line is just one of the two alternatives for appeal printed on the form, that they could have crossed out. See sections 9 and 23 here: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1995/419/contents/made

See also the Quietway Events and Consultation pages available via https://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/. There was a presentation at the Community Council yesterday. (In fact there's already a thread on it: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1451849,page=3)

I see that the agenda for tomorrow's CC meeting (7pm, St Barnabas Hall, Calton Ave, SE21 7DG) includes a deputation against a barrier. and an accompanying submission: http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/documents/s56424/Melbourne%20Grove%20Submission%20-%20Dulwich%20CC%209%20September%202015.pdf (141kB) which I was glad to read.

(A) Thanks (B) But what if © someone wants to use (D) ( ) around a B?

It's still the case -- has been since I first subscribed - that anyone typing B ) without a space before the bracket gets it interpreted by Phorum software as a shortcut for the smiley B). It's turned up recently at http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,1570476,1570482, http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1536718,1542346, and http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1536718,1537161. Is it not worth removing that mapping? It's trivial to do, and will take effect the next time the system is set up. You just need to remove the relevant line for the "cool" icon reference in the list defining $MOD_SMILEY_DEFAULT_SMILEYS, which begins round about line 25 of file \mods\smileys\smileyslib.php. Or you could comment it out by placing a # at the start of the line. Anyone who actually wants to use that smiley -- I've not seen a non-accidental use of it here ever -- will be able to find an external link to one fairly easily.

I shared the same scepticism about the use of the CGS capital fund for a mere feasibility study. I accept that there is some delegation to CC councillors, but I'm still left wondering whether that allows them to override the stated objectives of the scheme. I see also that the council officers' 18 June briefing to councillors (copied to the thread on p.15) says that, in addition to the police traffic count made in April, the council did their own speed and volume survey in February. Where can the results of the latter be seen? I'm also wondering why on earth the police one was then commissioned. Whatever budget it's on, it's also paid for from public funds. If you look at the PDF document on what I take to be the SR4 system used for doing the police survey -- it's downloadable from http://www.pwssigns.com/traffic-counter-sr4 -- you can see that all manner of analyses and graphics are available from the software; all, I expect, more or less at the push of a button. Is it known why these aren't also available to us, or how much extra, if anything, they would cost, or why at least the spreadsheet-ready raw data couldn't be available?

Of 55,918 cars in the 2014 sample of free-flowing traffic on built-up roads in Great Britain with a 30mph speed limit: Average speed: 30 mph Proportion exceeding limit: 45% Proportion exceeding limit by more than 5 mph: 15% (From Table SPE0102 at www.gov.uk/government/statistics/free-flow-vehicle-speeds-in-great-britain-2014).

XIX, according to a Southwark News report of 2 July, http://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/10k-boost-for-road-safety-campaigners-in-dulwich/ Cllr James Barber said: ?The deputation was particularly impressive. They had six speakers and a group of around fifteen to 20 supporters. They had put together a marvellous information pack." I don't know if the pack was circulated at the 24 June CC meeting, or when/if it or any parts have been formally submitted. It wasn't included in the documents accompanying the agenda at http://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListMeetings.aspx?CId=176&Year=0, hasn't been added since, and the minutes are still not up.

The act treats noise and vibration as the same" That traffic noise is not specifically deemed a "statutory nuisance" seems to be borne out by s.79 of EPA1990, unless there's any case law to the contrary. "s.79(1) Subject to subsections (1A) to (6A) below, the following matters constitute ?statutory nuisances? for the purposes of this Part, that is to say? ..... (ga) noise that is prejudicial to health or a nuisance and is emitted from or caused by a vehicle, machinery or equipment in a street ...... 6A) Subsection (1)(ga) above does not apply to noise made? (a) by traffic, ... ..... (7) In this Part? ..... ?noise? includes vibration; " http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1990/43/section/79 I don't know if there are any other heads under which a council might be responsible. A part of the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges ( DMRB ) dealing with noise and vibrations, is at http://www.standardsforhighways.co.uk/dmrb/vol11/section3/hd21311.pdf (826kB ). It does mention an EEC Directive requirement to assess the effects of noise from projects, and also provides guidance on monitoring and the legislative framework, including provisions for compensation. Where it itself fits in the legislative framework, if at all, I've no idea yet.

Wouldn't this be better posted in the General section rather than the lounge? If someone lives in ED, it's directly relevant to them.

> What was the jist of it? Concluding para: "It seems to me that the rise and fall of Kids Company makes an extremely eloquent case that social provision for vulnerable youngsters is far, far too important to be left to private philanthropy, subcontracted to charismatic eccentrics, or used as the basis for an ideological experiment in Burkean conservatism. It?s sad Kids Company has collapsed. It?s sadder still that it had to exist in the first place." http://www.standard.co.uk/comment/comment/sam-leith-lessons-for-the-tories-of-the-kids-company-collapse-a2414676.html

For just a group run and the possibility of making contacts, you could have have a look at http://www.parkrun.org.uk/events/events/. Some of the venues, like Wimbledon Common, will be more x-countrylike than others. I've no current knowledge of clubs, but there's at least http://www.herculeswimbledonac.org.uk/Cross-Country.html and http://hernehillharriers.org/athletics-training-sessions-for-youngsters/. I think Hercules have always been strong on x-c. Good luck to him/her.
