CWALD! We agree! See I'm not all bad. I think some shareholders might not like us though.


Jeremy - really? Are you serious? I could see it working on very short routes where people travel only a few stops but anything longer and journeys would be exhausting. Not to mention the elderly, those with children, etc.

Commuting is hell - other people are hell (well those standing too close to me are).


If I could earn the same in ED as I do in the West End (or even just a bit less) I'd jump at the chance - it would improve my standard of living considerably.


(Puts hands down)

Now, you try telling my boss that!

I wasn't being totally serious. But there more I think about the idea, the more I like it. Fold down seats could be provided, which are locked shut during peak hours. The elderly could have a separate compartment with floral armchairs and free cakes... give us all something to look forward to in a few years time.

So is the idea suggested by ???? (Loadsamoney?)to meet up with burning torches and pitchforks to sort out this uppity chav still a goer or not?

Debag the oik I say, that'll teach him some manners. It's what Boris Johnson would do.

Not at all Sean, though if there's any sort of prize attached to such a feat then I'll happily accept it. Just a combination of being off work sick, having a sleepless night and being new to the board.

Thanks and I like the name Sean too.


How the compliments flow when the quality meet as Brendan Behan once wrote. Though it was ironic when he wrote it, but not when I did.


Cheers, have a good Burns night.

    • There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?
    • Its almost the same as Grove Vale School , now Goose Green School.
    • They used to have dedicated park wardens, who I'm sure used to look after the parks and locked and opened the gates. Years ago I knew someone who was one. I thought they were based in that hut by the toilets. Are they not there any more? The community wardens are attached to the police rather than a specific park, aren't they?
    • Yes, sad how Rye Lane has taken a dive, interesting to see those pics CPR Dave. It's shocking how the section between Choumert Road and the Nag's Head in particular has lost its vibrancy, meanwhile the next section to the top of Peckham Rye Common has gentrified. Wonder why such a distinction in fortunes? Anyway the station square plans have fallen behind yet again, demolition won't now start this summer. The only "work" that will now take place this summer is surveying of the arcade, which they've had 10 years since planning permission to do. At least the replacement TSB branch has progressed but the Blenheim Grove corner building still looks unfinished, despite claims it "is now complete". https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/current-and-future-development/peckham-and-nunhead-2
