  1. It's coming along nicely
  2. While I totally agree that this stop should be re-opened immediately, I fear the argument will be that as the other side of the road has been narrowed to allow people to walk in the fenced off area thus they will not. As was suggested bombard your councillors so they have to take action.

    Same with Strawberry's, now just one variety
  4. https://metro.co.uk/2021/06/28/huge-plumes-of-smoke-in-elephant-and-castle-as-fire-breaks-out-at-station-14839484/ Massive explosion and subsequent fire.
  5. It's not their money, they just spend it and have no accountability, then they say a deficit exists and council tax and other charges etc. are duly increased with services provided being reduced. I hope the people of Southwark make their feelings known at the next local elections and throw this shower out of office.
  6. BBQ's, fires and log burning stoves are filthy and quite possibly carcinogenic but you can't stop people using them
  7. 1. not feasible 2. as above 3. quite possible 4. You can't dictate how people educate their children 5. Not a dictatorship just yet 6. If the UK had the infrastructure to support this, but we don't. The UK electricity power network was not designed to deal with so much usage 7. If the canals had not been filled in, then yes, but see what happened to the Surrey Canal, train lines replaced many 8. The trams are clean, trams did exist before buses were introduced, take a look back at history, London then had hundreds of trams. Again more use of electricity and as already stated we don't have the infrastructure to support this. I'd suggest not trying to create the, them and us, rich against poor, weak against strong senario.

  10. Barry White, Oh what a night for dancin A much under rated track by the outstandingly wonderful Barry White with a voice that can seduce you any day of the week.
  11. So are you are saying parity of opportunity does not exist, if that is not discrimination, I really don't know what is??? If you actually read what I had written, I said "what a crass comment you made". I did not call you crass. Yes, anything is possible, there is no such thing as "can't". It's a mindset. Before Transport for London was created, bus stops were NEVER, EVER closed. We have all paid a heavy personal cost over the past 15 months, just think about the thousands upon thousands who have lost their lives through Covid and the impact that has had on friends and family of the deceased. I'd suggest being a bit more thoughtful for those who are less able than yourself and you may just wish to consider the impact these things are having on others in the local community rather than presenting yourself to be so high and mighty, as its a long way up but an even longer way back down.
  12. Nigello - what a crass comment you made, try walking in others footsteps before making your statement and displaying such outright selfish righteousness. Spartacus - Totally agree with you. Some people seem to have the mind set of beggars can't be choosers, how wrong they are. A disability should not deny anyone ever from the right to parity of opportunity.
  13. It's been approved by the Council, will provide lots of new jobs (hopefully) but in view of Covid they may struggle to use the space effectively. There is a general shortage of building materials and potentially workmen due to Covid. Perhaps enjoy the quiet till work resumes.
  14. So this is the plan, looks like office space with a ground floor cafe and meeting rooms, what's to object about it. https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/files/17A158B8E379625B2932AF831DCE2514/pdf/18_AP_3144-Plan_-_proposed-468523.pdf
  15. Alice is that speculation, wishful thinking or do you have any actual evidence to support your statement?
  16. Asked for a blood test for an upcoming hospital appointment, it couldn't have been a more difficult experience, unhelpful, uninterested and effectively like talking to a brick wall, how many times does one need to explain the same thing till they understand. It is so frustrating at times dealing with this practice, sometimes just want to give up.
  17. Really sorry to hear of this horrendous attack, whereabouts on Woodvale did this occur?
  18. And that is because cars are being forced of side streets by the introduction of LTN's onto main roads, including bus routes. This increases congestion and hence journey times.
  19. Generally I've found it to be reasonably reliable, of course it does have blips and if you are unfortunate to get caught up in one of these it can result in longer wait times, sometimes one is cut out and it can add an additional 12-15 minute wait. What I am noticing is a level of complacency with people beginning not to bother to wear a face covering, either when boarding or throughout their journey. Please be considerate and wear a face covering on public transport, it protects both yourself and those around you, especially with the increase in positive cases nationally. richard tudor Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Waited for the P13 towards Streatham this morning > none came but 3 came one behind the other towards > New Cross. > > Dont think this is reliable. > > Is there a problem around the East Dulwich area.
  20. Have to admit the amount of queuing traffic along Lordship Lane especially from Whateley Road to Goose Green and the first part of Dog Kennel Hill has increased, hence an increase in the length of bus journey times. I suspect this is one of the impacts LTN's are having. It is not possible to access the side roads along Grove Vale as they were made into LTN's. It causes general frustration that what we used to have has been removed and replaced with more inconvenience. The sooner these LTN's are removed the better. I feel especially sorry for the local businesses being impacted as a result.
  21. It's looking good there KK.
  22. I don't feel any administration of any political colour would all have had the same lack of experience of dealing with a global pandemic. Cummings was out to undermine the Govt and has succeeded in giving the opposition parties the ammunition to attack on a variety of fronts. Cummimgs clearly wanted to hang Hancock out to dry and achieved that, BUT it will be interesting to see Hancock's evidence in two weeks time. I agree lockdown was over due but no Party had the required knowledge or experience to deal with a pandemic, I'd further suggest that this whole episode show's the inadequacy of Whitehall and the men in suits who follow out of date guidance rather than thinking outside the box to deliver the required objectives.
  23. Yes, also got this text message, thought it strange that FHRGP was now "shouting" at its patients. I'm actually beginning to think what is the point of this GP surgery as they are not even apparently seeing patients.The practice appears to go through more troughs than peaks.

  24. Your argument doesn't stand as both Lewisham and Catford have bus services close to the shopping areas. Suggest you must try harder in future when picking such poor examples. Now back to the matter in hand, with both Consort Road temporarily closed due to a shooting at the weekend, and Rye Lane closed, where is all the traffic diverting, that's right straight through East Dulwich making the situation there a thousand times worse. Simple, if Rye Lane was open this would not be the case. It's time to stop the inconvenience and re-open Rye Lane BEFORE it turns into a ghost town, where are The Specials when you need them???
