Are you challenging that people would need to drive to the doctor? That's not comparing similar things. If you want a comparison, it would be the Charter East school, which was supposed to not contribute as pupils were expected to walk or take the bus. IN reality, that's not the case and traffic has increased. We can realistically expect the same with a large nursery. The question is - do we want more traffic?

what's your personal interest in the nursery, northernmonkey? Traffic is already at a standstill, pollution is already too high. There is no way that the nursery will be car free and will not contribute to increased traffic and pollution

I totally agree with the objections. The building was left to the community and it should be used as such. There are so many very valid points against it. Traffic is a hot topic anyway with pollution and road closures - it is a great and optimistic view to think that people would walk - they don't walk to school so why be that naive? It's ridiculous to say that any use is better than no use. You should be interested in what it is used for.

Au Ciel is good. Some people just like what's in front of them, especially if it looks posh - regardless of quality.

I can't eat anything from Gail's since I saw flies crawling over the food. Make me feel sick just walking past it.

incompetence?

Put a sign on the bench that says "DANGER - do not sit here - bench needs repair" and put tape all over it - while you continue with the more sensible advice above, for a longer term solution.

The problem lies with us and our lifestyle choices which we will cling to as tightly as possible

Consultants are often used to reduce risk (ie. "that epic failure was the result of us following advice from consultants") - rather than the potential risk of sacking someone senior

Has anyone submitted an FOI? They have two weeks to respond.

simple really. If you love the cafe and are a customer, think about the pedestrians and make sure you are not blocking their way.

Too early and if I?m not busy or working will usually have a snooze in the afternoon.

Not all dogs that bark are unhappy but just badly trained and with inconsiderate owners. We have one on EDGrove/ Melbourne grove corner. And one on Melbourne grove itself. I?ve yelled at the owners a few times and they seem to be left outside less. Find out who it is and leave a note saying how concerned / irritated you are. Keep a log, report to council.

I know! They are always open and we assumed the same. Great that the staff get to enjoy Easter in the sunshine. Tesco near Peckham rye is open

I agree with jazzer.

I?m sure apology accepted. What did they actually do wrong?

Unrealistic. More likely they were having an affair.....

Totally agree with concerns. Please provide link to email of councillors if you have it to make it easier and more likely people will contact them

People should boycott paper cups anyway and take their own. Usually a travel mug but no harm in taking a mug :-)

yes - she had a lodger agreement

well, he's gone now which is a good thing. There are always risks you take and you can vet anyone as much as you like but time shows what people are like. She now has a surgeon staying and it's fab!

there is that, but the process has started now.

sorry - actually, it's lodger my mum took in over lockdown. He wanted to move out early, she gave him more notice than she needed to, he wasn't happy with the dates and refused to move on time and got quite nasty. She charged him one extra day and now he's taking her to small claims court for ?30, which is a day plus cleaning (he said it was her responsibility). I thought I might get a different response if I said it was me on the difficult end. She could easily just give him the money but he's been threatening and quite spiteful, so we just wanted to see what other people thought.

hahha - good point! might help me to explain it :-)

thanks - I actually agree but just wanted to check.
