To those Goodrich School Parents who park their cars across driveways near the school - please don't. It's happening to me more and more frequently. I can't get in or out of my drive and it makes me late for things. I'm a patient person and I have children too so appreciate you are often running late. Thanks for reading this and please pass it on to GSP's who don't read the EDF.
I've had this problem quite often too living on Upland Road. Having got parked in which meant I was late to pick up my own kids, I politely asked the woman who had parked me in not to do it again and was rewarded which a mouth full of vile abuse! It also happened when i was meant to be taking my mum to hospital. I phoned the school and asked them to put a polite reminder in their weekly newsletter to parents. Maybe try this again. Not sure it makes any difference but you never know!

I think it's reasonable to use this forum to raise awareness, and if it avoids personal confrontations in the street with children present, that can only be a good thing!


I live near another school and my entire road is a car park and rat run at both ends of the day. I've spoken to the school involved but they don't seem to do anything about it.

A quiet word in the councils ear usually results in a few days of camera cars. Sorry to any parents I know that have been ticketed, but it gives me a lot of pleasure to see those parked on zigzags and lowered crossings being fined!


It never ceases to amaze me that people who drive to the school seem intent on parking right outside. A couple of blocks down the road and there are heaps of parking spaces.

Yes but they wouldn't want little Johhny to waddle his fat arse any further than he has too.

"if you are having problems with vehicles obstructing your driveway and would like enforcement then we can include your address as part of our Civil Enforcement patrols.

There is no cost to you for this service but you must first apply and register your address.

Please request dropped kerb enforcement by contacting parking services [email protected] or 0207 708 8610 or 020 7708 8587"

From the Zebra crossing thread:


"The answer to that is no help-ma-Boab. Im not going that way.im going the shortest route possible to save my childrens little legs from walking further than they have to"

    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.  
    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s. 
    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
