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"

    • Hello, Does anyone know of any climbing, basketball or badminton clubs that are local to Peckham, East Dulwich? My son’s weekends are full of football and rugby training but I’m struggling to keep him busy (off a screen!) on week evenings. I’ve looked into the London Community boxing but sessions sadly start at 4.30 and he’s not back from school until 5.  Any recommendations gratefully received!   
    • Be careful out there  !   I got a ticket for 1 minute over  on Lordship Lane   ---- with a blue badge , on a single yellow ...    I returned at 4.03pm to find the ticket -- he waited till 4.01pm with ticket and then scarpered  Naturally i appealed it and this was the response   We refer to the informal challenge you have made against the issue of the Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) JK17113680 You were parked on a single yellow line with one yellow kerb marking. There is a sign at the location advising that no loading is permitted Monday-Friday, 7 am to 10 am, and then 4 pm to 7 pm. Loading is permitted for a maximum of 40 minutes between 10 am and 4 pm, and then again after 7 pm. You were observed parked at 4:01 pm. and therefore issued a PCN for parking at a time when the rule applies. The purpose of this rule is to improve traffic flow and safety at all times. This contravention is immediately enforceable, and therefore, a PCN can be issued straight away as no observation period is needed. This rule applies to disabled badge holders, too; it is not a situation where you may use your disabled badge. Although your Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) was correctly given, we have cancelled it on this occasion, as a gesture of goodwill. Please note that this cancellation does not set a precedent for other PCNs issued in the future under similar circumstances, as each case is dealt with on its own merits. Yours sincerely Anita Hayler Southwark Parking 
    • Closed this evening at 7pm (Tuesday). Perhaps worth ringing first to check if it’s open?
    • Thanks for the recommendation. So pleased I found Andy the plumber! After being let down by others, he assessed remotely, ordered part and got everything sorted in no time. Really grateful — thank you! Highly recommend
