Er, yes it is a crime. You told us that in your last sentence.


It may not be in many people's eyes dangerous, including IAM (as long as you're wearing a Sam Brown), Police Roadcraft etc and if seen you may not get stopped, but it's still against the law and by doing so you are liable to prosecution.

I totally disagree you should stand around for a while and take a look :'(

Effective policing of the speed limit should do it I'd have thought.

    • That's really helpful. Do the Community Councils still exist? It sounds to me that whoever the contact is on the council who has sorted out the North Cross Road notice board and put the new list of councillors in it must at least have access to the key for that one? Unless it was one of the unlocked ones. And of course if somebody knows where the keys are, they may have no idea that people are looking for them or that this forum thread exists. Which are the notice boards which are not locked?  The very helpful locksmith near the station (?Callows?)  might be able to provide keys for them, or if not, new locks, in return for some local publicity? In fact, they may be able to advise in general, rather than keep trying unresponsive people at the council. But then of course there is still the question of who is going to take responsibility for putting appropriate East Dulwich community information into them and updating it as necessary.
    • Our residents' association used to have keys many moons ago, but when locks were changed, we tried everyone (including ward councillors) to get keys to no avail. A couple of boards are not locked. The Community Councils originally paid for all the notice boards in Dulwich. May have come under the Cleaner Greener budget.
    • Blame Margaret Thatcher - she started the privatization of public utilities.
    • Aria is great, fixed the leak under sink and a wonky toilet set. He’s very conscientious and thorough in his work and an honest, friendly guy. Really pleased to recommend him
