the-e-dealer Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I'm no builder but I can see that the gaps will fill with Mud and water eroding the mortar and weakening the structure. Expect a big pot hole in the road in a few years time.

mynamehere Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I am concerned about the quality of the work Southwark contracts as I live here and provide the money: randomly what I knowPeckham Pulse: construction problems for years with little attention to design for energy conservation or generationDulwich Leisure Centre: dittoFusion Website booking: not fit for purposeVeolia: How was a contract awarded to this firm?Southwark Parking Authority: Is there any chance that the corruption exposed this week in Chelsea operates here? So having looked at your photo I have to say whether or not this work will be buried it looks like it isn't fit for purpose and certainly shows the worker to have no pride in their product. The edges on the Pyramids are better done.

fazer71 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Oh.Yes it's going to struggle to cope with all those heavy buggies and lardy mummies walking over it on the pavements of Lordship Lane.Can we have a copy of the full report from Southwark once you've got it OP ?Just love threads like this 4 the comedy value.http://gtalfaromeo.co.uk/IMG_0224.jpg Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/21836-i-am-certain-there-is-something-wrong-with-me/page/2/#findComment-520827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annette Curtain Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Ah HaMy favourite thread to dateCome on pipsky, i've squeezed you 'till you squeakedAdmit defeat. You're a green-ink-nasally-jobsworth-Busy-Body. And you know it.Now rub some ointment on your sore nose and sling yer hook.NETTE:-SWhat makes me laugh even more is that I posted the above and edited the error out a whole 7 minutes later. Pipsky must have seen and copied it straight away.The joy is he sat on it all night, seething, considering his response, and that's all he could come up with.Ah joy, he's a smaller maggot than i'd given him credit for.
