Hi,


I've recently moved into a property on North Cross Road, East Dulwich. I don't have a car in London so parking is never a consideration for me, but this weekend I have family coming to stay with me. I'm wondering where I am best to instruct them to park as the market will be on on Saturday?


Thanks

Simon

Utter rubbish, its very possible to park on CP road, I do it all the time, especially on a Saturday, i'd suggest you go to a driving school where they specialise with sessions on 'how to park your car'

why are you so rude and combative? coming from Peckham and parking on CPR - 'I do it all the time especially on a Saturday' does not makes you cleverer than anyone else but makes it difficult for my daughter with baby, family/visitors/deliveries, or indeed any residents to find a parking space close to their own front doors to enable unloading/loading of shopping/children/elderly on a Saturday morning. This road and others nearby do not exist solely for your convenience.



I dare say, you will be legally parked, and 'entitled' but thoughtful and considerate clearly does not factor.

nor your unnecessary and nasty put down of Pugwash's parking skills and helpful suggestions.

Myself and my neighbour both live on a road with a CPZ and Crystal Palace Road is the nearest road to us without a CPZ so we both park our cars on CPR pretty much daily and nightly, as its quite an effort to apply for a permit to park near our own homes!, hence me being somewhat knowledgable on parking on that road.


Sorry for my tone coming across as rude, I was simply trying to help.

Sorry if I'm being dim, but have I understood this correctly?


You and your neighbour live on a road with a CPZ, which means that people who don't live on your road can't park there, as the CPZ presumably was introduced to ensure that residents (including you and your neighbour) are able to park in their own road.


But you don't want to make the effort to apply for the permit which would enable you to park in your own road.


So you both park on CPR "pretty much daily and nightly", thus taking up spaces which people who live on CPR could otherwise use. Those people probably include parents with small children having to carry the children and all their paraphernalia from their car to their house; people with heavy things which they find it hard to carry a long way; people with mobility problems which aren't severe enough to qualify for a disabled parking space; people having to make several trips to and from their car with luggage, shopping etc..


Do you not find something a bit wrong with that? Especially given that the residents of CPR are not able to park in your road.


To be clear: I am not suggesting that only people who live in CPR should park there. I am suggesting that to park there night and day when you could quite easily park in your own road with a small amount of effort on your part is ..... well, you decide.


Or is there something I've missed here?

Ah, OK.


I fell for it.


WUM.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
