Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone could help me. My car was parked on Melbourne Grove and I was unaware of the road works that were about to take place. I've just gone to use my car and it is no longer there and there are no other cars there either.

I rang the number to trace the car and they cannot track it down and then I was told to ring the police and they also have no record of it either.

I was just wondering if anyone else has had their car moved and if so do they know where it has been moved too. Or if anyone can help or has knowledge of what might have happened. Any help would be hugely appreciated as the police are now classing this as a stolen vehicle.


Thanks so much.

Hey so little update, I've looked around most of the roads in Dulwich and no luck unfortunately. I've called many people to try and track it down and it seems my car is not on any records to show it's been moved or towed. However I was told it may have been missed off the list, meaning it could have been moved and not logged.

If anyone see's this car please give me a call, I would be so so grateful, as I'm meant to be travelling across the country next week.

Please PM me if you have any info.


Thanks so much Sarah

Could your insurance company help to find it?


What a pain it happening at a time when you can't contact the council.


Do you know what company is actually carrying out the work?


ETA: I understand why you have done it, but you might not want to put your mobile number on a public website. Maybe better ask people to PM you?

Hi everyone, the car has been found! Thanks to everyone for their help and support trying to find it.

I received a text from someone this morning saying they had seen it on Pellatt Road and I have just collected it. Thank you very much to this person.

Also just an FYI to anyone else this might happen to, the car was moved because of the road works but not logged on the system by the council or the company Conway that moved it, so if a similar scenario happens to anyone else, it may just be a case of searching the streets for your car.


Thank you again everyone! Very very happy now!

Glad you found it !

I?m incredulous that someone?s car can just be moved with no indication of where and the hassles that could cause.

Can?t either Southwark or Conway confirm which agency / company was responsible for car removals ?

If they can?t, then they?re not in control and this will happen again !

There must be some kind of process that governs removal of cars for the purpose of 'vital' roadworks, one wonders if in this case that process has been breached? This is something our local councillor should defintitely investigate and get an explanation.

I plan on going to a private university in California, which means that there is no in-state/out-of-state tuition difference. Though I currently live in Virginia, I plan on living in California after I graduate college. Would it be OK/a good idea to change residency when I got the best website.

If are wondering to ask me about the idea I got then, feel free and ask me anytime.

Thanks!

    • I like empanadas. I don't think Chango is a massive chain - it's got a few stores all in London I believe (stand to be corrected if I've got that wrong). I don't see a problem with them opening on the Lane personally. I really like Chacarero, but that doesn't mean that they should be immune from competition - if they're successful and open a couple more stores, are we then meant to stop supporting them for being a 'chain'?  That opening post does sound a lot like marketing spiel though. Is the OP perhaps connected to the new business I wonder?
    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
