Wrong, Cummings for so many reasons is far worse. I don't need to spell this out. Unless you were being amusing. Not really though.

I was just pointing out that people are circumventing the instructions. (including the staff in the Sainsbury's especially the ones doing the home delivery shopping)

The home delivery slots are supposed to be for vulnerable people.

People are supposed to be going into supermarkets ONE from each family.....


Anyway, I had to go to the Post Office on 9th April- I really should have got a proof of posting but I literally panicked when I saw the mass of people on the pavement there...and others pushing through the crowd so I just chucked my post in the box and went home. Luckily the letter turned up where it was supposed to.


(It has now been deemed by the cops that DC did break the lockdown when he drove to Barnard castle....no mention of him doing wrong by going to Durham for childcare though.) It does not appear that DC went anywhere near other people during his 'trips' unlike the vast majority of sweaty panting joggers around here trying to infect people since day 1.

Which is why I am not going out except for absolute necessity and a walk per day and from what I've seen - including today when a young woman squeezed past an elderly lady with a walking stick in Townley Road....when there is little traffic on the road- abhorrent!

Don't suppose you remember what the rational was do you? Sounds like more Southwark congestion making madness to bump up some figures somewhere they want ratifying.


Given how slowly the buses head up the hill, especially from the lights, it'll cause more problems than I can imagine it would solve.

I thought that too i.e. taking out the plants seems a bit drastic and the workmen were hacking away!


Went to Sainsburys' this morning around 10.30 and there was no queue. Came out at 11am and the queue was nearly back to the nursery but seemed to moving ok.

Driving back up DKH from Sainsburys I was behind a HGV which suddenly stopped halfway on the hill. Had to stop for a minute while the HGV stopped and reversed into the empty space which was once a house and more or less directly opposite the place where the plants and trees were situated.

    • I would also like to recommend Andy for plumbing. I had a leak under my kitchen tap and he was able to visit and resolve the issue in the same day. Prompt and efficient service and very professional. 
    • It's about ensuring it's the medical facilities you are accessing, hence the sign-in actually in Tessa Jowell. And I think there are visual as well as camera checks, after all a number of people drive in and out of the car park to drop patients off. Clearly they are not parked up, so it's not relevant if they are fleetingly on camera. It's only those actually parked who need to identify themselves as patients. 
    • Thanks CPR Dave for the link to Southwark's leaf cleaning schedule. Good to see that.   I think that what may have happened was the leaves weren't cleared during the scheduled week for Whateley Road, which was w/c 17 November.  Then they were cleared a couple of weeks ago instead. We have been here through all of autumn,  and there has been a steady build-up of leaves on this stretch since October.  At one point there was a deep layer to wade through. The photos I posted were from 17 December, and as you can see,  the leaves had been trampled and compressed into the ground. It looked a lot worse at times.   Lots of school kids from the primary school walk up and down this pavement.   In case this happens next year,  I have found a contact page about streets https://www.southwark.gov.uk/parking-streets-and-transport/contact-us-about-transport-and-roads - so I could ask them what their plans are.  
    • Amrutha is excellent, unless you are died in the wool meat and two veg most will find the food to their taste and it certainly isn't a place that expects you to be a sandal wearing vegan. Recommend Matoon too, there are many great places in SE23, SE4 and SE26 if you get chance to get on a bus. Don't have takeaways very often and would only do this when they employ their own delivery people due to all the issues with the slave labour that is Deliveroo and the like (and numerous other issues).  Yes it is a different thread but I can't stop myself reminding people.
