Quoting the ones that said that "traffic has been down 12%" that is a lie, the traffic may have been down during covid lockdowns, but it has more than doubled on some roads because of this stupid displacement.

I just got my appeal allowed for driving through the restriction in Townley Road. My main argument was that the sign is not directly next to the lane, but there is a cycling lane inbetween , which is separated by bollards. The information below should be useful to anyone who also got a ticket and wants to appeal. Just be patient. The council will refuse the appeal, as they always do, but there is the independent adjudicator. Here is what the adjudicator said: However, although the one sign that is at the location is that prescribed by Diagram 953 at Item 33 in Part 2 of Schedule 3 to the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016, being a permitted variant thereof, as indicating 'route for use by buses, pedal cycles and taxis', it is the only sign and is not immediately adjacent to the lane in which the vehicle is seen to travel, but rather it is on a fenced island with a cycle lane in between. There is no other Diagram 953 sign at this point of the road.

I hope the police can identify these horrible people. Hate crime should never be overlooked.

We were looking to have a stairs runner fitted. From recommendations on this forum we found Micheal 07874 982 485. He was excellent in any way. Quick communication, friendly, clean working and he gave very good advice. The price was also reasonable and we are pleased with the result. His company is called Carpettrust.

After reading this post I hired Stef to pressure wash our patio and front garden, also clean all the windows inside and out.He was brilliant. He was on time , he paid good attention to detail and I could see he cleaned the patio much better than the guy we had a year before. He is also clean and friendly and the price was reasonable.

response to ???? I did not mention Hitler at all. In fact Italy had fascism already 11 years earlier and some countries had it much longer. Brexit and Trump it are just the english speaking version of fascism.

It is a basic democratic right of free thinking people, who you would call Guardianistas, to fight the fascist ideology of brexiteers and do something against it. After all Brexit was brought to us by lies and deception. Can someone ban Brexiteers from trying to stop the democtratic right of setting up petitions.

I had a response from the gym manager. He says the person on the picture does not work for the gym. I reality the guy was in charge of the gym yesterday, he went in and out, was receiving people at the reception there and he also had access to their kind of boiler room. and should I ever have to prove this (only if I have to) then there were plenty of witnesses, not to his first rage but to shout I am a sad man. (sad because there are people like him).

Hi TheCat, I am an experienced driver, but l only saw one faint arrow when I left. When I arrived at 9.45am these must have been hidden by frost. Just because the entrance to the premises are one way, with no visible arrows it does not mean the whole parking space is. In fact I add 2 pictures taken from Google earth, it is not an obvious one way at all.

Thank you Tomskip

I just did complain in writing. Going into the gym would have meant more confrontation with a rude bully.

Today I was looking for a parking space at Gambado Beckenham. The space in front of the venue was full so I turned around to get a space in the other part of the car park. Someone violently hit on my car roof several times. I opened the door and a man was shouting, wether I don't see that this is a one way. I said "no I don't see that and he should not hit my car again". Whilst I proceeded to the parking space the man shouted "Idiot" at me and followed us until I parked. He then called me Idiot again, and he started taking photos of my car including me, my 2 children and their friend. He then shouted that my car will be removed from this car park. I told him that he should stop shouting abuse at me in front of my children. My children who are 7 and 4 were crying and were very scared. Only later I saw that there was a small blue sign on the wall (no bigger than a A4 sheet of paper) which indicates a one way street, but there was no red one way warning sign. Whilst the children were at the party at Gambado I went to check the car and again the man came out of Beckenham Gym were he works and shouted "You are a sad man your car is now already banned from the premises". I did take a photo of him after that, although from a distance. All this abuse because in a car park, which I visited for the first time I did not spot the tiny sign and did not listen to a bully. The image shows the inadequate sign on the left and the abusive bully in the centre. Beckenham Gym parking space bully , get a life and never scare my children again.

Hi I did not have it done, but I buy a lot of acrylic. I found Hindleys.co.uk to be one of the cheapest suppliers and they have good quality brands, like perspex. However do not use acrylic behind the cooker, where you should use a heat resistant material. Have the splashbacks measured out exactly and create a computer file, which also shows all the holes for sockets. Then have it laser cut.

Working Mummy this is exactly how I feel, from another European / British family, the arguments of those leave voters on this forum are just sadly ridiculous. They have no idea of the benefits the EU really brought to this country, like workers rights, human rights etc. And really the EU membership fee was paid back many times by increased prosperity. And I dare to even mention even the euro has not done so badly as it is always made out. The pound was 1.45 euros in 2002-2004 but recently it was around 1.25, so over the last 15 years the euro has still done better than the pound.

I completely agree. Ice cream vans sell rubbish ice cream. (I spent my first 25 years in Italy) There do not seem to be many small start up companys selling "home" made ice cream from vans. I have been told that the "you want a flake on this" style vans would drive them out from every park straight away. Not sure if it is true

Hi I saw it a few weeks ago at Lester's online Nursery Store (or something like that) for ? 115 with free UK delivery. I emailed Kiddicare to ask if they would match that price. They did we got it for ? 113.70 instead of their usual ? 139 I know only a little bit cheaper but a well known company with a good customer service and free next day delivery.

We have used our bugaboo bee since our daughters birth last April. We are really happy with it, although it has a little fault which I have reported yesterday to bugaboo, so lets see how well the customer service will do. (so far no reply) Otherwise it is lovely, agile, cute and I wonder why I would need one of those very big ones. We also took it onto 2 flights which was no problem. We have not really used it yet the other way round (baby facing world) but I believe it will fold a bit smaller. It is expensive but also I would buy again. (if the little fault is sorted quickly)

My wife used to follow the cycling route through Walworth for her commute. A few years ago she was stopped by hooded youths and they mugged her bike including attached bag with belongings phone etc. This happened on Portland Street at about 7pm. The police drove around with her and did a drive by identification but they did not get them.
