I am not even sure that data collected by Council is trustworthy. From my personal most resent experience, walking down Croxted Road in the mornings of December 2023 and January 2024 (my exercise routine) , noticed that ATC appeared about a week leading to Christmas and was taken away second week of January, i.e it was in place during traffic quieter times due to the holiday season.

Ah, I though introduction of CPZ and previously ULEZ and LTN are all in the name of saving our environment. My mistake.

I wonder if steam train at Victoria station today (engine running full-bore while train was stationery) is considered sustainable transport by London mayor. Does the train company have to pay ULEZ charge?

I don't think this is 'yet another thread'. It's not about LTNs, it's about bringing attention to the fact that Southwark council is trying to misrepresent the outcome of the consultation (which anyway was very biased in a way question were asked) and manipulate us.

Hi Lucas, I can highly recommend Silvano Bozza 07702615834, he had many recommendations on this forum. Few years ago I was in a similar situation, a woman over 40, never driven before, Silvano patiently taught me how to drive, passed from first time on manual. Good luck.

I used https://www.designandalter.com/ in the past to alter designer dress, jeans and trousers, they were great, very good quality.

to know the answer I think you need to measure the "opening" of your paper sack, if I remember correctly litres = volume, i.e. converts into cubic meters/centimeters. ianr Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Are the paper sacks still the same size as the old > stock I have, about 78 x 58 cm flat?

Since last year's lockdown I have been using The Tea Makers of London (www.theteamakers.co.uk) and Whittard of Chelsea (www.whittard.co.uk) for my supply, both deliver. Also agree with Foxy - F&M is a good choice.

same here, paid ?40 on 5th March and still no sticker more than a month later. quick to take the money, not quick on providing the service, as usual.

I've previously posted a recommendation on this forum for ECS Air Conditioning Ltd, Bradley Kennedy, his team installed aircon units in our house (not loft though), couple of years ago.

We caught Winkworth not being honest with us about viewings taking place.

I fully agree, Georgian food is lovely. But unfortunately I can not find Kartuli's menu.

For double glazing I can recommend Elwyns, we used them ourselves. For secondary glazing can only suggest Selectaglaze, saw their work in one of the hotels we stayed in, as I liked it, I made a note of the company name from the frame.

You can also try this business: https://www.wholesaleglasscompany.co.uk. Based in Croydon, we used them a while ago for a side table glass top and glass sliding door.

You can try Palace Fireplaces in Hulse Hill, we used them 7-8 years ago to restore one fireplace and replace/supply another.

once stayed in a hotel in Essex (old Victorian building) which had secondary glazing windows done by selectaglaze (name was on the frames, hence I know the manufacturer). secondary glazing made quite a difference, as we had it in our room, but not in the hall, so was able to compare.

I can also highly recommend Peter Bennison, don't have his number to hand, but he is Worcester Bosch registered installer, so can be found on WB website or on this forum.

Highly recommend Silvano Bozza. I was in the same situation and was over 40 when Silvano started teaching me. Found Silvano on this forum. Passed on 1st attempt. His number 07702615834. Good luck.

I can recomend Ben Archard, www.benselectrics.com, mobile: 07957 629 892.

Hi Aecornr, I know exactly what you mean, a lot of money and your peace of mind are at stake. I don't know exactly how long time ago they've opened this Dulwich branch, but it must have been after 2013. As our experience with Elwyns were a while ago, I have no idea how they would perform now. But Sue kindly found a link for you on check_a_trader. If I was you: - I would ask as many questions as possible (for example, if Elwyns is manufacturer, who are these local installers? who guarantees what? where is their fabrication/production is based etc.). I would check this company on the companies house website. http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk//wcframe?name=accessCompanyInfo - I would not ignore others advice and I will get SJB people over for a quote, I will ask them the same questions as I would ask Timber Windows. Even if you decide not to go with them at the end, it's always better to have more quotes than just one. -I would probably ask companies who quoted for the job if I can contact some of their resent customers for a reference and, if yes, I will call these people ask to see the finished product from outside (I can understand people will not want some strangers to go inside). You?ve been given a link to Elwyns website already by Sue. So I've googled Timber Windows in Wimbledon and they are also saying that they have showroom in Dulwich, so not sure who is who. https://www.timberwindows.com/showroom/london-dulwich/

Hi Aecornr, From your first post I had an impression that you've already had a quote from Timber Windows. If my understanding is correct, what's the name of the company who provided this quote to you? If it's Elwyns, this is what the name of Timber Windows company was and may be still is, which we used about 6-7 years ago and our experience with them was good. They installed both timber (casement) and upvc windows for us. At the time they had no showroom in Dulwich, only in Carshalton and Woldingham, we visited both at the time. I also recall we visited a Timber Windows showroom in Wimbledon, although I'm not sure that was Elwyns, although the timber windows they had on display were very very similar look and quality to the ones we saw in Carshalton and Woldingham. Good luck.

Try Ben Archard, mob 07957 629 892, www.benselectrics.com. He did some work for us this year, happy to recomend.

We used ECS Air Conditioning Ltd, Bradley Kennedy 02087789661, we are very pleased, happy to recommend. Had 4 quotes to start with, chose this one, although was not the cheapest. As a warning: one of the quotes we had, apart from being the most expensive, included unacceptable contract terms(e.g. non refundable upfront deposit with delivery or performance are only an estimate "time shall not be of the essence", delivery of the units to your place where it's your responsibility to check them, with risk of loss or damage are yours while they are still retain title to the units).
