When driving down from the top of Forest Hill Road toward Peckham Rye Park, I go through the traffic lights at Brenchly gardens and then turn right into Marmora Road. The lane go's from 2 to 1 just beyond the lights, so there's oncoming traffic, I am indicating and my car is positioned as close to the white line as it can be waiting to turn right, so why is it that I get bibbed, like I'm not supposed to be there?


Have some sense, I can't pull in front of oncoming traffic for Gods sake (6)

Yeah, cos Colyton Road isn't residential! Marmora is as much of a through route as any!

Narnia:))


Marmora Man, is it your road or just the road you live on? Anyway, seeing as I am of the "weaker sex" I find it better for me to go down Marmora, than attempt to pass all those lovely shops on the left on the way to Colyton, besides the fact I'd have to double back up Scutari to get to Marmora where I wanted to be in the first place.


You could always buy the road and only those who live there or have good reason to be there could use it, just a thought>:D<

BB - so you must work or live on Marmora Road. If it's the former that's unusual, if it's the latter you must also be disturbed by other road users using the road as a rat run, particularly early in the morning and late at night, to avoid the traffic lights and queues on Forest Hill Road.

    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
    • yes that's the one!  it was (nearly) harmless fun to get the un-initiated to put the coin in for you i also seem to remember that the Hanway Street place was called Govinda's.  it was vegetarian, vegan even - but it was much more palatable fare than the standard Hare Krishna stuff.  I also used to go tot he Indian Y - which I remmber discussing on the EDF some eyars ago.  And then the first Wagamama opened off Russell Street
