All good suggestions


Sadly it's still there today despite a visit from the police who can identify the driver (Not from around this area) but haven't a contact numbers on record

Will contact the council today to get it removed

A short while I can understand but 48 hours is taking the pee!!!

Why are some people so rude??????????????????????

I really hope it gets moved ASAP it's so frustrating when that happens.

I agree call the council & i would leave a note on the car too incase they leave before the council turns up, you don't want them parking there again.

If you're being blocked in then the police should tow the offending car away. In fact they should have arranged this when they visited you. I would call them again, explain that your lawful access to the highway is being blocked, and ask them specifically to arrange the removal of the car. The local number ought to be fine.

This happened to my parents on Chadwick road recently. Police and Southwark council can only remove a car if you have a registered dropped curb. You can register a dropped curb freely via the council and when this happens they can send someone out to ticket the vehicle and, eventually, tow it. My mother was blocked in for almost three days before she could get her car out. Not nice for older people.

To avoid spending lots of time speaking with the call center do you have the number to call please.


Would be appreciated

I have a neighbour who regularly allows his friends to park their cars outside my house usually, when they go on holiday (they probably live on some less than salubrious estate somewhere judging by what he is like). I haven't got a drive so there is nothing I can do about it.

Before the council will do anything they require you to register your crossover as one with a problem, this then allows their enforcement team to keep an eye on it and ticket or remove Parker cars (potentially including your own or visitors)

If subsequently someone blocks you in, you call the council , tell them it's a registered crossover and they can take appropriate action.

    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
