A man pulled up in our overcrowded parking street near the train station. And parked smack in the middle of two spaces. I asked him (very kindly) if he could pull forward or backward so that another car might be able to park...and...he said "No, I have to get to the train". With the overcrowded and controversial parking on streets near the station, could people please think of others when they park?


Fuming.

The Council's calculation of 507 residents' parking spaces within the proposed CPZ with no individually marked parking spaces is predicated on considerate parking and each car "occupying" no more than 5.5 metres.


In the real world there will be less than 507 available spaces.

That sort of selfish behaviour really gets my goat! All it takes is a little bit of consideration for others...sigh...


Bet he was a parent with a sense of entitlement! ;-)


ETA: the last statement was a joke, really just a joke (see the winking, smiley face), it may not be very funny but please don't start a debate over it!

What sort of lazy @#$%& drives to the bloody train station anyway


One who lives a number of miles away and wants to use a cheaper zone, one who has just delivered their handicapped relative/ neighbour somewhere and has to get to work, one who has to rush off somewhere this evening and doesn't have the time to get home and pick up their car, one who is going to pick up a very heavy package in town and will need the car to get it home...


Doesn't excuse selfish parking, of course.

Surely that will cost more in petrol?

That seems very unlikely from such a selfish twat, and where is their blue badge?


Anyway, couldn't the OP just accidently fall over near the car, and put their hands out to break their fall, whilst holding their keys...

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying. From the very beginning through to the end Bob was responsive, helpful and demonstrated his knowledge. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will defiantly be using Bob again and would thoroughly recommend him! His details are... www.geekelectrics.co.uk 07453 407 226 [email protected]
    • I want to try that and also the granary loaf. Used to get a good granary loaf from the bakery that was in Herne Hill a long time ago.  Think they are somewhere In the vicinity of Coulsdon now. They used to make the hamburger buns for the Meatwagon/Meatliquor people.
