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 completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
