No doubt this has been discussed already but I can find no sign of it on ED Forum -


"Posted at 7:16 1 Mar7:16 BBC News Travel


A2214 London - A2214 East Dulwich Road in East Dulwich blocked and it's slow westbound at Goose Green roundabout, because of an accident. Diversion in operation - 6 bus routes affected"


What caused this severe damage to the roundabout?

Yikes. Fatigue, booze, excessive speed, wet road, dark, a combination of all of them...? Good thing there were no pedestrians or cyclists around.

Very true. Was wondering for a time whether it was just me noticing this. Turns out lots of people I know and know of are witnessing poor standards and a lack of etiquette on the road. Bicycles seem to be ridden well, but cars and pedestrians are increasingly careless. As a pedestrian, occasional cyclist and frequent driver I see this and hopefully without bias.


Anyway the roundabout is very nicely damaged again and plenty of cash (and time too) will be needed to fix it again!

Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's.

    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
