Sainsburys DKH - queue update please


Recommended Posts

I have just been to Bell Green Sainsburys - no queue at all when I came out at 9:00am and they had very stocked shelves. I know it isn't convenient for all, but thought I would mention it on here just in case. Tuesdays at 8:30am seem good!

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.

    • Because the council responsible for it is far-left....   And you haven't answered whether it is worth diverting emergency vehicles because a few cars drive through the LTN and why some lobby groups have been so desperate to close it to emergency vehicles.    Emergency services hate non-permeable junctions as they lengthen response times....f you remember it's why the council had to redesign the DV junction because emergency services kept telling them they needed to be able to drive through it...but the council resisted and resisted until they finally relented because the emergency services said their LTN had increased response times....sorry if the truth gets in the way of a good story but those are facts. The council was putting lives at risk because they refused to open the junction to emergency services. Why? What could have been the motivation for that? So, in fact, it was the emergency services who forced the council (kicking and screaming) to remove the permanent barriers and allow emergency services access. So the council finally opened the junction to emergency services and is now coming back to re-close part of the junction.  Why?  Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway.   In time, I am sure the truth will come to light and those rewponsbile will be held accountable but you have to admit there is something very unusual going on with that junction - its the very definition of a (very expensive) white elephant.
