unfortunately there has been a fatality. A car has over turned outside the vale pub. my thoughts go out to those involved. There are police along the corden line. Which runs right up to sainsbury turn off. You can not cross the road until there. i dont know what time is happened i live close by and never heard sirens.

Hi,


I believe that you cannot access the station and trains are not stopping at ED. To me it seems a little strange that they close off the road from L/L through to Sainsbury's and intermediate roads as well. It would look like the RTA is only part of the story.

Kind regards,

Libra Carr.

Are you sure? It looked to me like the gates were open when I walked past. However, I admit that I didn't check carefully so I could well be wrong

Quorn Road was the only road open and that was for back street traffic going up Dog Kennel Hill... That was earlier so not sure what is going on, did make enquiries with police to see what the situation was and they could'nt tell me much, just that Quorn Road was open...

I was walking towards sainsburys on dog kennel hill this morning about 5.50 when a green convertible golf came down the hill at around 70mph.

As the car got the costcutter opposite the dominos pizza it seemed to hit the traffic island and the drivers side front wheel collapsed.

The car carried on past me at speed even the it was scraping along the floor and hit a post opposite the vale pub, that's when the car flipped and landed on it's roof.

I ran to the car and helped a guy out who had cuts to his head.

I went to the other side of the car to help the driver but it seems he must have died on impact.

I don't know what happened to the guy who survived, a woman who came out of the vale pub was seeing to him.

The police took my details then I had to leave to go to work.

No, I couldn't see any news reports either, but I think a lot of things don't get into the news unless they want witnesses. Allgoodh was there and saw everything, although it was so early in the morning. I think it must have been very hard for Allgoodh, being 'first on the scene' but he or she seems to have known the best thing to do. And went to work afterwards - I would have been traumatised and would have had to go back home! So I am very impressed by Allgoodh, and I am very sorry for those involved in the accident, and their families/friends.

I agree with every word you have said Fliss.


Allgoodh - this may hit you later, I do hope you take some time out if it does.

      Council "weed" removal

      By LordshipPain · Posted

      Photos. Every single piece of litter in that photo (if you enlarge it you can see lots more pieces) was dropped by the bin men in the background. I don't blame them - it would destroy their backs to pick it all up. Perhaps they should try to not drop so much litter in the first place...  These photos were taken on the 1st March - a Saturday. The street cleaner, who does an excellent job around Underhill Road and Melford Road, bags up the rubbish and leaves them on a Thursday generally. They are supposed to be collected the same day or the next day at the latest. They weren't collected. The first photo was November. It was a very large number of poo bags. I reported it to Southwark but they took 3 days to collect it. In the meantime the bags were squashed and the faeces was spread everywhere, photo 2. It would mean that everyone who walked along that bit of road will have spread it a bit further, along with the vehicles, so that it went into a lot of people's houses.  Over to you Sue. In this photo you can see the litter that was dropped by the bin men (I feel bad as they are really nice and work really hard often going into people's properties to get the bins that weren't put out - usually at a semi-jog speed; it must be exhausting and its not their fault that Southwark doesn't give them enough time to do their job properly. Maybe they should sack their team of EDF astro-turfers to save some money?), the split blue bag with some birds sorting the contents on the pavement, and the refuse truck in the background. I don't blame the workers, I blame Southwark. I am also annoyed at you, Sue, for saying this is an exaggeration and is basically a lie; something you do all over the forum (along with the cycling trolls). I have a lot more pictures too.

      No need to provoke you since you respond constantly to everything. It is not a gross exaggeration - I took photos. Do you not like people answering back? A bit head girl aren't you. Unkempt roads and weed-lifted pavements with dog faces bags all over the place - when the blue bags, which are regularly not collected by the LA, are split open by foxes. Again, I have photos.
