Hi All,

Super stressful morning, after school drop off, I was walking from Goose Green park toward Co-op along the actual side that it?s on. And just as I passed that beautiful gift store a few doors before Co-op...my buggy sunk into a newly laid patch of cement that was poured on the pavement to fill a side gap of a drain lid hats sat in the middle of the footpath. Not a single sign in sight! It?s bizarre that anyone would pour cement without signage to warn the public and insane it was done in such weather. It would not have been more than a few hours old.

Anyhow, I?m thankful to the guys at the car wash...I scurried towards the car wash on the cnr of Chesterfield and Lordship Lane and they were so kind, they used their high pressure hose to clear of every last bit of the cement hat had jarred up the buggy wheel...and they did the entire set of wheels just out of kindness. My two boys loved it! Thanks again!

Went back to the wet cement and confirmed, no signage on either side approaching the wet cement.

And Southwark - please, help the people! Glad it was me and not someone in a wheelchair or with a walking cane. My mess made it very obvious to everyone else passing by today...I think/hope!

Hi Jules


I saw two guys laying cement outside Oliver Bonas at about 8:45 yesterday morning. Perhaps they were fixing reported damage in several places that day? Agree it wasn't the weather for it to set well. Sorry to hear your buggy got stuck, but glad the chaps in the car wash were kind and helped you out.

That?s the one! Oh wow!

Time Wise.. I dropped my daughter off at 8:50 and walked through that cement at 9am! I also feel bad about ruining it. Should have signed my initials. Hope it set before the torrential rain that poured down yesterday. Thanks !!

    • Its a few years ago now, but I organised my end of year prom (for year 13) at Off the Cuff in Herne Hill - was on the cheaper side to rent and at that age, felt very cool and clubby. I had my own 18th at Whirled Cinema in Loughborough Junction but I'm not sure if they take event bookings like that anymore 
    • You are right . It isn't going to change him for the better. Sending such a negative message is potentially counter-productive. Trump is narcissistic, arrogant, unpredictable, spiteful, divisive, and dishonest, with a penchant for a total a disregard for democratic norms.  He is one who bears a grudge so there's a case to be made for not offending him as he could react with a bunch of  adverse actions  such as  deciding to increase import tariffs on UK exports to the US.      
    • Unless we don't fly I don't think we can be too critical of the authorities.  
    • In 2016 London City Airport began using concentrated flight paths. When there's a predominantly westerly wind, incoming aircraft approach from East London (north of the River). When there's a predominantly Easterly wind, incoming aircraft approach the airport from the West: circling through Forest Hill, Dulwich, Vauxhall, Tower Hamlets, Docklands. This latter flight path affects many of us in South East London. https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/london-city-airport-concentrated-flight-paths The planes going into City are often below 2,000 ft, so very noisy. Sometimes we have incoming Heathrow at the same time, flying higher. The early flights that I hear e.g. 04:30 are incoming to Heathrow. They are scheduled to land at 05:30 but are 'early'. Apparently the government allows a percentage of flights to arrive early and late (but these are now established as regular occurrences, informally part of the schedule). IMHO Londoners are getting very poor political representation on this issue. Incredible that if you want to complain about aircraft noise, you're supposed to contact the airport concerned! Preposterous and designed solely in favour of aviation expansion.
