Re: LEWISHAM COUNCIL PLANNING ENFORCEMENT DESPAIR

Would it be worth contacting the 'new' mayor. I've heard he is quite approachable.

Re: Kirkdale closed Thursday 27 September

Not fatal, but possibly "life changing". The bike was in pieces apparently and can be seen in this report

Re: Can you recycle ... ???

Ah, I didn't notice the bit about 'wet' cardboard.

Then how do we keep the cardboard dry after 2 days of rain on Sat and Sun,and no lid on the large communal bin?

Re: Can you recycle ... ???

Interesting that cardboard can't be recycled. Maybe that explains why a load has been dumped in Kent House Rd this week!

Re: Kirkdale Costcutter

It was robbed last year and also was closed last year. Do a search for "costcutter" in the search box, and several posts come up.

Re: Mayow road/Sydenham road crossing.

There should be star crossings at all junctions where there are crossroads. They need one at Penge main junction.

Re: Accident in Kent House Rd

I saw it after I left the bees! But when I went past again about 4pm and saw the cars had been moved, I also saw a football and one trainer in the road so wonder if they were connected to the accident.

Accident in Kent House Rd

Anyone know what happened in the accident in Kent House Rd at lunchtime? A smashed up car was right across the road and seemed to have hit a parked car, right by the bus stop near the roundabout with Kent House Lane. The buses going towards Penge could only just get past.

Re: Power cuts

I received a text at 9.12 pm Fri from UK power networks about the power cut affecting the substation and affecting 1/3 of the customers in lower Sydenham. They also sent a link to a map and more info of the problem area. Luckily my place was ok.

Re: "Fake Doctor" scam

He's already targeted 58 businesses. I suppose if he just asks for relatively small amounts of money, his victims are likely to give.

They would probably say if they were closed for refurbishment. I've never seen the place very busy.

Moynuls restaurant

Looks like Moynuls in lower Sydenham has closed down, the windows are all covered over. Nothing seems to last in that shop.

There was a party, I think in the allotments, but that ended by about 11 pm.
