And were you driving it through Dulwich Village around 8pm tonight?


If so, I'm the cyclist that you nearly knocked off my bike on the roundabout despite me having right of way.


I'd entered it from Burbage Road before you arrived at the Village entry. I was in the middle of the lane and already passed the Village exit before you barely bothered slowing and came onto the roundabout. Given I had bright bike lights, a high vis vest, multiple spoke reflectors and a hi vis rucksack on, I should have been pretty visible. It was only because I managed to brake really sharply that you don't have a large dent in your car and aren't giving the police a statement right now and I'm not injured.


I did particularly appreciate how you didn't even bother acknowledging me or checking I was OK before you headed up College Road. Perhaps you're not even aware it is a roundabout.


And no thanks to the dark SUV either who carried on blithely through too leaving me standing, literally, in the middle of the road without a gap to move off into.


I'm hoping you are local though and read the forum so that you might take more care next time you use that stretch of road.

What a dignified and eloquent post following a shocking event. I hope you're feeling slightly better now, having vented (very politely) and can rest and recover tonight. Best wishes for safe journeys in the future.


Pale green car - shame on you

    • @first mate  just Google the Green's policies and AI should summarise.  For sustainable transport this includes more initiatives to get people out of their cars as you would expect.  I've always been broadly in favour of their environmental policies, although feel they should go further on culture change. Some of their national policies are bonkers and/or unrealistic - as are most of Reform's.  Historically fringe parties could come up with nonsense, as they will never govern.  Of course whilst I don't expect that Polanski will ever be PM that other bloke could be.  Worrying times, particularly if the Greens split the centre/left vote.  It would be better if One Nation Tories could split the centre vote (and drag some of those on the right), but they don;t have a lot of influence in the current party. One particularly bonkers policy was one element of the Greens who wanted us out of Europe, not because of Europe being pro market/capitalism but because we needed a recession, deindustrialise, so we would all go back to the middle ages.  Or something along those lines.  I lost some friends because of this. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03y5trr#:~:text="Protectionism against developing countries%2C savage austerity in,the case for either remain or leave. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/08/eu-reform-green-brexit
    • I've planted a meadow out front, it needs a lot of work.  It's lovely until August and then grotty until the next spring as once the flowers have died back it doesn't have a lot going for it.  Clover is the last one to flower.  It will get admiring looks when in bloom. I laugh quite loud when I pass one neighbour with plastic grass, not only is it dead to nature it is not even laid well,   I should be crying.  
    • Andy did a number of jobs for me and was very reasonably priced. He's very helpful, arrives on time, pays attention to detail and a nice man. I'll be using him again and recommending him to my friends.
