Yes I thought renting one was the best chance of getting a car park space for the weekend! lol.

Yes, I've tried a couple of times to speak to the owner, but never at home.

People seem a bit obsessed about parking right in front of their house. Seems to me to be primitive territorial instinct. Yes, there are a small number for who it is important due to mobility issues of one sort or other, bit for most people you may just accept a minute or twos walk to your car. Is it that big a deal?

Sorry Jeremy, wasn't my intention, didn't phrase it well - it just seems sometimes, it's more about 'they've take MY space' rather than any real inconvenience (a couple of spaces along aint no biggie). I accept that if you have to park a couple of streets away it can be a pain. Personally, I never have to park more than a couple of 100 meters from my front door, but I may just be lucky.

      Family holiday - south of France - by train?

      By Cyclemonkey · Posted

      We go to the South of France by train most summers.   It is pretty easy and you get to arrive right in the centre of the city.  TGVs are generally efficient, reliable and comfortable. Unfortunately the direct London to Marseille Eurostar train seems to have been a  victim of Brexit so you have to change in Paris - most South bound service go from  Gare de Lyon - about a 15 min RER rise from Gare du Nord. Allow plenty of time travelling back from Gare du Nord, it always was horrid but has reach new levels of chaos since Brexit. I would recommend, at least for the home leg, booking the entire journey through Eurostar. That way if your French train is delayed or cancelled and you miss your Eurostar connection back to London,  Eurostar will get you on to a different train home. As for destinations - there is a lot of the South of Fra.ce to choose from.  What are you looking for?     Also Ouigo trains can be a cheaper option than TGVs, but watch out you have to pay extra for things like luggage and seat reservations.  Also they sometimes stop at TGV stations outside the city centre.

      Do what I do and stick some of these folk on your ignore list.  It's great fun, they just rant away and you will be totally oblivious to it.

      Champion Hill Estate - what's it like?

      By SEcyclist · Posted

      Hi everyone,  My partner and I are considering moving to the Champion Hill estate. We know surrounding areas well but we aren't familiar with the estate itself - it would be really helpful to hear any opinions and experiences, especially related to safety / noise.  Thank you in advance!
