Exactly, a complete pain in the backside for having friends or family visit or when getting any work done on your house. Plus it's another way for the council to award lucrative contracts for issuance and enforcement.

We're about to get a CPZ and frankly given choice between filling in the odd online form and paying a few quid to be certain someone can park, versus the utter lottery of not knowing whether or not the delivery will arrive, the workman can come etc with the current overparking situation, give me a CPZ anyday.


Its not difficult to use the online parking system!

You've clearly never lived in a CPZ. I have, and never got a spot in my street, and had to pay ?300/year for the privilege. Delivery drivers fined, family members clamped, discs dropping off windscreens, then fines...

There's a huge camper van someone in Worlingham Rd leaves for months at a time, without apparently caring that it's blocking the light and taking up a space outside someone's front door for the whole winter. Legal doesn't mean considerate.

Y782MHP doesn't exist according to the UK.Gov website. Y782MHD exists and is a blue Ford Focus.


So, either it's Y782MHP and it's a fake plate in which case someone should be interested, or it's Y782MHD in which case it's taxed and MOT'd but the MOT runs out in September 2017 - in which case someone should move it and/or someone should be interested if it isn't MOT'd.


Looks like Y782MHD from the photo above.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

"We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
