What do you want?!

There's a young demographic in Dulwich so the 'wants' are inevitably kiddie oriented.

However, when the shiny young folk have to start lashing out on care home fees, I suspect that might change.

"I'd like to be able to speak to the staff I'd like to speak to when phoning the council, instead of having to speak to call centre staff who can't do much more than take a message."

Yes, but then the staff that you were after would spend their whole time taking calls and not being able to actually do their job. I understand the frustration, but as a LA worker (not southwark) I can understand why the call centre type system is a necessary evil.

The immediate and compulsory lopping off, chopping down or otherwise eradicating of any and all branches, boughs, bushes and leafy twigs that stray into the area of pavement designated for pedestrians by even an inch - especially those that drop down from above. If I want to walk through a fucking forest I'll go and find a fucking forest.

In a 'guilty until proven innocent' kinda fashion?

Kiera I think you may simply misunderstand what pollarding is about with London Plane trees. It's not because the tree surgeons are underfunded, lazy or stupid.

Pollarding at 3 to 6 year intervals keeps trees leafier, denser, younger, less threat to houses or passers-by and allows them to live much much longer. It limits root spread and damage to foundations.

I can see you have an instinctive born free let nature take its course approach, but you're wrong on this one - and I'm sure that I've explained this to you before.

So I guess you may not have been listening then, and probably won't listen now ;-)

Hell yey-ah. Alternatively, just fund a chainsaw for me and I'll take care of it.

A ban on heaters outside pubs, and all pubs provided with blankets for smokers instead.
