It annoys me too but I can envisage situations where it might be deemed necessary e.g waiting for a skip or moving van.

I hate people at pedestrian crossings that continuously press the button as if the lights are going to change quicker for them.


Also when waiting for a lift when people have seen you press the button, they press it again. Or even if they don't see you press the button, do they think you are that stupid to just stand there without pressing it so they feel the urge to press the button anyway!!

RE The wheelybins, you could just move them back on to the pavement. I would. It's a liberty.


RE the crossibgs, at many crossibfs the button doesn't actually do anything, it's just there to give people the sense that the traffic will be stopped at some point.

Benugo. We have a captive one at work and they put huge amounts of salt and/or cream in almost everything. They actually add salt to their ham sandwiches as 'it's part of the recipe' - there's already salt in the bread, the ham, the mustard and the mayonnaise, and then they add a big pinch on top.

buying "expensive" ones are just as bad... minus the justification "well they were cheap what did I expect"

    • We both own the freehold. They’re in the maisonette and I’m in the flat. They’re older, so with any luck, they’ll be selling soon. Unfortunately, due to recent events, all of this now has to be disclosed on the TA6 form. Honestly, I’d move out of sheer shame if I were them. Poisoning fruit trees planted for children is just cruel, and they haven’t even apologised. I genuinely wonder how they justify this to themselves. Envy is such a toxic and destructive emotion, and sadly, it often explains behaviour like this. I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the support from so many of you, especially at the East Dulwich Forum drinks and for the kind messages on both this forum and the Nextdoor app. It’s genuinely reassuring to know there are still decent, supportive neighbours around.
    • Hmm, you seem to have an agenda.  I like ait of measured that they have done to promote active travel, improving pedestrian and cyclist safety, whilst improving the streetscape. I avoid making sweeping statements about wildlife management as I don't know enough about their policies, and expect some in Southwark are passionate about what they do. Go along to a relevant local meeting and ask, I doubt if you will change a thing by posting here.  
    • It wouldn't surprise me at all.   The council used to spray the pavements all the time b4 lockdown.  They are probably doing it again.
