  1. Again commending Gary for his electrical works - got us sorted out in our new house including a run of fibre for our internal data connection - [email protected] or 0787 217 8044
  2. There is probably a Southwark Cyclist who goes that way and would ride with you all the way - hope you have bike parking at work?
  3. How about this for a certain arrival? http://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/southwark-cyclists-bike-trains/
  4. Might be stressful when the Bakerloo line is not stopping there! - see my link above Should be OK from Farringdon - Metropolitan and Circle not affected edcam Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Train to Farringdon then tube is the least > stressful option, believe me, I've tried ALL the > routes!
  5. >If their builder goes bust, Oooh yes - someone I know in Honor Oak is in just that pickle - neighbors builder went bust - they have a new one now but luckily there was insurance to pay for shoring up the wall the first lot undermined
  6. >the party wall surveyor is totally independent and getting your own does nothing of value. OK - will this person also cover / value / act on damage caused - eg drains replacement, patio damage?
  7. Note ..... https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2016/february/major-improvement-works-at-paddington-paves-the-way-for-crossrail
  8. Seconded, thirded whatever recent new boiler install here
  9. Horrible story - we keep our two indoors at night But oh dear - I'm clearly going to be have to be careful how I "speak" to cats when I'm out and about
  10. Hi MikeB This used to be a contraflow route until it was taken out - something about a route for the police to get to riots in central Peckam Remember those riots? - I met police in body armour on that route on this day ..... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14452770 mikeb Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Many cyclists head south down Bellenden Road > against the one-way flow from Highshore Road to > Holly Grove.

  11. sorry - OLR (off line reader) lag nunhead_man Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Check out the RAC route planner on-line?
  12. Come down the east side of London - various options on a Sunday including a) through the City and over London Bridge or Tower Bridge (check for openings) b) through Rotherhithe tunnel but look out for works / closures c) M25 / M11 Blackwall Tunnel but look out for works / closures d) M25 / Dartford Crossing (toll) and back in via New Cross and back route to Kings on the Rye etc
  13. On email this am ....................... The Options Assessment Report for the Bakerloo line extension is now available online at tfl.gov.uk/bakerloo-extension. The report considers the possible destinations that were suggested as part of the 2014 public consultation. It also further considers the options presented during the 2014 consultation. A media release regarding the report and the project?s latest status is also available here. https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2015/december/bakerloo-line-extension-to-improve-transport-links-in-south-london-by-2030
  14. Unlikely as it increases what is known as the "dwell time" ( time waiting in station ) on what is already a very crowded network in the rush hours... History http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/c/camberwell_new_road/
  15. Indeed - as the rush to develop allowed by the City of London to avoid developments going elsewhere shows - eg Chancery Lane http://www.derwentlondon.com/properties/40-chancery-lane https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=developments+in+Chancery+lane&gbv=1&sei=WZGDVoq7Nsf6UPvgh9gH
  16. Re proposed layout - yuk!!! no imagination - surely after 5 years or more training an architect can produce more than a few square boxes - even getting the windows design to echo no 1 would have helped
  17. All cyclists please note the Elephant North Roundabout is becoming a T Junction and changing to two way next Sunday 6/12/2015 - take real care going north and south - left hook danger NOT changed and a right hook danger ADDED Especially note the left turn only lane going north on the link road - keep left only if GOING left up St Georges Road
  18. Gary Vu - 07872178044 - lots of recommends here I believe

  20. Has anyone has this (a Chimney lining and stove install) done recently and could recommend an installer?
  21. Obviously Righty has had issues but we did not We would recommend Kevin of Y and J builders. Pm me for more details of the job etc if you wish
  22. "read somewhere you are not allowed to direct the camera onto a public road" Hmmmm - this is a bit old but may refer to the controlling case ......... http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/libertycentral/2010/aug/31/householders-cctv-public-highway-film
  23. "Simon (Southwark cyclists co-ordinator" - actually Andy (Southwark cyclists co-ordinator) I believe from here.... http://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/southwark-cyclists-tfl-road-works-ride-26th-october-2015/ Looks like v good work there And why was the AGM "It was intensely boring...." DavidK? Mind you AGM's often are! And hear Southwark have TFL money for this scheme now
  24. In the end my wife went by bus and I cycled as I had to go on elsewhere - was not too bad in the end and could probably have driven and parked with a little walk to destination (a family meal in a restaurant)
