sorry - don't know - but was amazed to see - that after last year - when snow was widely forecast - that dog kennel hill was again untreated / unprepared - and surely enough a bus attempted madly to go up - and cf course failed and caused predictable chaos all around hat area - you would have thought that the combined force of painsburies TFL and the council - that this could have ben planned for - what a bunch of muppets

I have to say that the TLF website information on buses, roads and trains is rubbish, the EDF is a far more reliable source of information.

Smaller side roads are a nightmare. I live on what is normally a rat run but have seen almost no cars at all today.

Saw the pizza delivery guy nearly come off his moped braking at a junction even tough he was going about 5mph. is is right to expect them to risk life and limb for a pizza.

It has been partly planned for this year better than last. Last year, the buses just stopped serving this area almost entirely. At least this year, the buses are running with diversions to avoid the steepest hills - the problem is that there's a certain point at which the bus will get up it and that is also partly due to driver skill. I was on a 185 yesterday that passed two buses 'stuck' on hills.


A while we all go on about gritting, if there's a lot of snow falling in a short period, it will cover the grit and make it virtually useless. There was an emergency gritter in Peckham yesterday when there was bus carnage along Peckham High Street - it was basically a truck of grit with several men trying to spread some out across the junction with boards and bare hands even...

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "Sep, you don't even live here."   ???
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
