Are we to be subjected to months and months of disruption as road works consume East Dulwich. Is this the price to pay for "biker" Thomas? Or, shoudl that be "digger" Richard? East Dulwcih may as well be cut off from the rest of the whold now that we are surrounded by 22 weeks of chaotic, ill-planned and un-managed digging. Southwark Council needs to take a stand like Lambeth and the City of Westminster and demand that these utilites cause minimum disruption.

Gallery Road, Coldharbour Lane, Lordship Lane, Streatham High Road, Croxted Road, Camberwell Grove, and that is just the tip of the iceberg!!! Is Government trying to cut us off from public transport or just has it just got a cruel sense of humour and gets a mean laugh out of making sure we all have to get up an hour early just to try to get to work!! All three candiates for Mayor for/of London seem to think transport is an issue. Will Boris, Ken or Brian defend East Dulwich? What c"hange for the better? East Dulwich used to have three Labour Councillors, it has a Labour Assembly Member, a Green Assembly Jenny nearby and Southwark Council pretends to actually be managed and even "run" by the Liberal Socialistas and Kim Humperdernickels. Can't imagine anything will get better unless we get rid of them all! Where are the people, this may as well be East Zimbabwe!! Did I mention Camberwell Grove! Was it 6 months, a year, two years or never! How many times do we have to hear the train service is to be cut?

Why can't we have a Council that actually defends us and is not afraid to stand up for the people? Why do we have to put up with one star incompetence in just about every aspect of life? Why does it take 8 years to just to replace a broken window on the Dog Kennel Hill Estate? Why to people shoot each other in Peckham? Why to we put up with life in this hell called South (Camberwell) East (Dulwich) London?


Do we have a say in anything? Seems none of our elected politicans have a anything real to say and it seems far too much to ask they they are actually allowed to influence those who dicate chaos for our lives! So why should we worry about the chaos on our streets? Isn't it just the rule that we let people who tick the boxes, meet the targets and sit back on nice pensions make our life a living hell?

    • For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.      
    • The drivers generally have the same set area to cover every day, so they're fairly easy to follow - quite often on bike. They organise their drops to maximise how many they can do within a given time - there's actually software at the depot to do this before they set off - so they tend to follow the same route. Certain addresses are delivery hotspots, some have two or three drops a day from the various couriers. It all adds up doorstep deliveries being incredibly easy to target. I suspect Vladi's neighbour hasn't had their fake parcel nicked, not because of their security, but because the thief simply wouldn't have seen the driver stop there, so there's nothing to steal. The losses are factored in, driving prices up for everyone, and the drivers are treated abysmally. It's a dreadful business. It needs regulating.   Sorry, cross post with Angelina and Alec1
    • Amazon seem to do this more and more now.  They don't even ring the doorbell, just leave them lying on the door step, then you find out it's been delivered when you check tracking.  The official Amazon vans are frequently followed on their routes by thieves and take the opportunities freely given.   
    • Our local delivery driver was followed and had his van stolen.
