  1. Who on their right mind drinks Amstel, a brewed under licence Europiss lager.
  2. I’ve noticed this in a couple of locations where the road surface has slumped in the bus stop areas, maybe a reaction caused by a different finishing material.
  3. Personally, since my company car was stolen a month ago I’m using them all the time, beats lugging a heavy satchel to the station whenever I use the train to work. They are hit and miss though, maybe as a result of being jacked I’ve had a few which won’t unlock, sometimes when you can end the ride immediately and they don’t charge as the bike obviously hasn’t moved a metre but then when the same thing happened to the next bike I got charged. There’s no option to inform them that this had happened as all the feedback is based on the actually journey, brakes, acceleration, etc. When they work they’re great, riding into a headwind or low hill is easy. I was looking forward to going up College Road to Crystal Palace on Saturday but just after Sydenham Hill Station is a grey zone where they cut out, something I wasn’t aware of and thought you could use them London wide which was a pain and so can’t comment on how they perform on a steep hill. They are abused parking wise though, it’s great to be able to cycle to your front door but even on my quiet road they’re all over the place, one even parked in the middle of it on Saturday night. Having dedicated parking docks would defeat the object unless there’s one on every street, a lot of the badly parked ones are those likely to have been jacked as well. I suppose fines for bad parking is the only answer but that’s open to abuse by Lime who’ll fine willy nilly as as income raiser.
  4. I’m not sure but I think it’s works to the bridge across the South Circular at Tulse Hill. It was happening last Saturday as ai could see workers on the track as well as underneath.
  5. Good luck to them, GV is a dead spot at night, even the pub is empty during the week. There used to be a very good Thai in Melbourne Grove but it didn’t last.
  6. One just flew over 21.25 15th June around Melbourne Grove and last seen heading towards The Lordship and beyond. I though they weren’t allowed in urban areas?
  7. Two cars stolen on my road this week and someone kicked over a Lime bike.
  8. Great result, life doesn?t revolve around LTN?s which were all used too now.
  9. Road markings or a lack of, are a problem across the whole of the country, there?s no remarking programme and only seem to get done when there?s road works these days.
  10. I?m hoping the council start marking out parking bays for EV users only around the lampost charge points, obviously they have to be charging.

  12. Looking extremely shabby these days, grass a foot high. Is it now abandoned. Prime land for redevelopment?
  13. Lordship Lane, south of the Lordship pub ad tou go up the hill, lots of luminous green paint at the base of the front walls. Is this targetting?
  14. It doesn?t say you can?t turn into Melbourne, it?s just it?s a no through route.
  15. Happy to see all the above posters boycott the pub as a result, anything to get served quicker in there helps.

Organic Market from now on, shame I liked that place.
  17. 9.30 delivery by a casual worker of all my outstanding post today (Sunday!) some dating back to mid December and then a further delivery around 3pm for sonething my daugher had ordered.
  18. Nothing for two days again, still loads of mid-December stuff not delivered.
  19. I?ve got post arriving sent last week, bills of course, and packages still outstanding from late November.

I had a Porsche SUV do that to me on the crossing on the corner to the Rye opposite the Clockhouse.
  21. I had a couple of packages posted the first week in August arrive yesterday, still one missing though.
