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.

    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
    • I thought I noticed the shop being redecorated the other day when I passed. Also the old Romeo Jones had some works going on, I think 
    • Leon came to sort out a lighting issue for us last week.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and gave clear, detailed advice about how to avoid in future.  Would highly recommend him.
