Ludlow Thompson - free advertising


Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noticed the proliferation of yellow beetles around the area owned by the estate agents Ludlow Thompson? The cynic in me is starting to believe that rather than just a way of getting the agents and their customers to properties, they are actually just sneaky agent advertising for the area - especially as one has been parked in my road for 3 and a half weeks now without moving!


Thought there were laws against agents and putting up bogus boards - is this a way to get round it?

by the way, if there's an Estate Agents board outside a property that says Sold or Let (not For Sale or To Let) it should not be outside a property beyond 14 days from the the sale/letting date. If it's longer than that and it annoys you, you can call the estate agent and ask them to take it down, they have to (Town and Country Planning Act).

Humph - so there's nothing that can be done about the car thing? And I'll just have to continue parking in the next street cos businesses decide to use our road as a promo zone!


And while I'm on the subject - why can't people park in ED? They seem scared to get closer than 3 feet to the next car which means there are loads of 'half spaces' and no room to park. Leaving Southwark council with a nice opening to say 'hey, how about a nice CPZ!'


Right - I'll shut up now....

Well, the CPZ would do something about the car thing. The question is whether it's worth a fiver a month to rid yourself of the car thing?! Surely LWL, one may not barrack uncontrolled parking in one breath and then harangue the council for offering a solution in the next? ;-)


At least the LT Beetles are clean, has anyone noticed the 'Man with a van' tramp steamers? Now there's a blight on a sunny day.

I got so irritated by the sign still being outside our flat about two months after we'd completed. I rang Property In at least 3 times and popped in; always to be told 'yes, yes' while I'm sure they rolled their eyes. I rang again (just to let the bee out of my bonnet you understand) and asked them what their policy was regarding signage and I was told me "Ideally we take the sign down as soon as it's been sold ... " at which point I meanly leapt in and asked why they still hadn't taken ours down - it was gone a few days later.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
