  1. Yes I got caught too, had no idea about this new restriction! there don't seem to be any advance warnings either which I've seen in other locations. I was heading South down Adys Road and just didn't see the sign at all. I don't think there's much point in appealing but I will raise the issue of poor signage.

  2. 1) Putin will see the error of his ways, apologise, and gracefully withdraw from the Ukraine

    2) CEOs etc will wonder why they really need to earn more than £xk a year and decide to rebalance the pay structure so that the lowest earners wage is a decent proportion of the top earners in any company (as in John Lewis assuming they still do that).

    3) An international law is passed that makes companies accountable for the safe disposal of their goods - from toys to cars and beyond.

    4) Someone finally patents walking shoes with headlights so that you can avoid open manholes, dog shit etc while night strolling.


    I could go on but have just realised you asked for predictions, not a wish list.

  3. I'm not sure this is really about street furniture – it's how we grapple with the issue of using cars less. As a cyclist, walker and occasional motorist (and local resident and parent of local school children) I welcome the attempts to make driving not the best option.

    This junction was always a nightmare for parents and children, Dulwich Village had horrendous traffic and encouraging the kids to use bikes felt like the dangerous option. I have seen many more parents and kids doing the school run on bikes which is better for everyone.

    I think this is a great place for kids and parents to catch up after school, and it's now a lot more colurful! I don't think they have made the best job of road marking etc but it's going in the right direction IMHO.

  4. We have a shared sewer with neighbour and in the past when there has been a problem, such as a blockage, the council has come to sort it. So unless the rules have changed (this was a while ago) you're right, and the council is responsible for this. No idea which dept, environmental health?
  5. I think the issue is about support in the classroom. Exclusions can happen because there's not enough help for a child who needs extra attention, which therefore means the whole class is affected. I think Southwark are doing the right thing by keeping children in school wherever possible, let's hope the teachers get the appropriate help to manage this.
