A plea to the person having a loft extension built on Bawdale Road, which according to the planning docs is the householder: please could you ask your builders to desist from working on a bank holiday. I have tried phoning the SOuthwark noise team but was waiting on hold for a reply for 40 minutes. So I just went round there (I live on Whateley in a house that backs onto the building site) and tried shouting to your workmen from the street but they either ignored me or couldn't hear me because of the noise they're making. They have consistently ignored the Southwark construction hours regs over the past few weeks and I am losing my patience!!

Note through the door? Find out what company the workmen are from and complain to them?


If they are consistently ignoring regs, report them to the relevant council department (not noise).


It's possible the owners are away and not aware of all this?


Hope you find some way to stop it, building work noise is a nightmare anyway without having it on bank holidays as well.

There is banner up outside with the company's number on, but it connected to what sounded like an office answerphone - I suspect I won't get any response to that message before Monday at the earliest.


I have now got through to the noise team but am waiting for a call back. Hopefully that happens before the builders pack up for the day.

    • I have lots of good quality stuffed toys that I'd be happy to go to a good home! Please let me know and I'll get them out of the loft. 
    • I booked a last minute appointment today for an eye shape as a bit of a treat as my family and I have a lot going on - cancer, dementia - so I fancied a little pick me up today. However, I left Dr Boo's feeling the exact opposite!  As soon as I had arrived at the beauticians a lady greeted me with a scowling face and basically started shouting at me saying that I was late. Apparently, she was the manager of the place! 😞 My first reaction was to apologise as I had found it difficult to park and therefore I assumed that trying to find a parking space had taken longer than I had thought.  But she continued to tell me off/shout at me - even after I'd apologised - so I calmly pointed out to her that I didn't think her behaviour or attitude was an appropriate way to greet a customer!   I then went upstairs with the actual beautician who did my eye brow shape. She was deeply embarrassed by her manager's outburst and exceedingly apologetic - btw she was also an excellent beautician who did a brilliant job shaping my eye brows. 5 stars for her!  When I got upstairs there was clock in the treatment room which said 12.18 - my appointment was at 12.15! Taking into account the altercation downstairs, plus walking up the stairs to the treatment room it seems that I wasn't actually late for my appointment at all! (See attached photo).  When I went back downstairs I spoke with the rude manageress and said I want to make an official compliant, and showed her the photograph of the clock saying 12.18 and asked her why she had she been so rude to me when I wasn't even late. TBH even if I had been late I still shouldn't have been shouted at in that way.  Her response was to say that the clock in the treatment was wrong and her watch was right and that I was at least 5 minutes late!? Even if that had been the case, no-one warrants that treatment.  I have never left a negative review before now, however,  when I tried to get hold of the owner of the beauticians to complain, the number I'd been given didn't work. Surprise, surprise.  So, Dr Boo I'd suggest you immediately put your manageress on a training course.  And perhaps the owner could give me a call to apologise!  No stars for the rude, and completely in the wrong manageress, but 5 stars for the lovely beautician who actually gave me an eye brow shape.
