Well done HMB for being 'on the ball' ha ha ... Not a cricket ball - doesn't sound so dangerous then...

Went past the cricketers today. Soft ball. Passed quite close by with my two kids and they very politely waited a few moments to bowl when we'd gone far enough past the wicket.


They're interestingly bowling right down the 'cut through' - suppose its because the grass is shorter there??


Anyway - they weren't causing any problems and looked they were having a lot of fun. Almost wanted to join in. HP

HP- Yes, I think they use that area as the grass is shorter and is almost like a proper cricket crease. I looked out and saw them playing away tonight and again it was a soft ball.


Good to see and they defo look like they are enjoying themselves which is nice to see.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
