  2. Bugaboo bee 6, bought for £800, very good condition (just some wear and tear to the handle). Looking for £150 (opened to offers as agreed sale fell through at last minute) comes with rain cover, bar and the toy too if anyone wants. Can also come with the maxi cosi adapter.
  3. Do great pizzas there at community cafe.. lots going on — was free parking but plans to like everywhere get folk to pay. Nice area… only discovered it a few years ago..
  4. Original Snake Mountain from Masters Of The Universe. Photos show condition, there are bits missing. Collection from SE5. £60.
  5. Oh ok, I've looked at it again and I agree I misread it. You are right. I hadn't realised there were two separate parks. I just looked on a map. I have only been to the smaller one, with the pond.
  6. Unfortunately I think the incoming candidate may have to live with the "backlash and bad press" as I suspect assurances by them of the council consulting, reviewing and amending post-election may not hold much weight with the electorate - we have seen this so many times before and we know how this goes. This is likely to erode a lot of trust in Southwark Labour - no matter who the councillor is. The question really needs to be answered why the rush - it seems to be political suicide to try to rush this out so close to an election and most councillors would want to wait until after the election. Who has been pushing this to be so urgent and why? Is it because they were worried about losing the ward, is it because someone had made a promise to someone/some group about this going in, was it because they had budget and have to get it in this financial year....the rush suggests there is some motivating factor most are not aware of that is driving this.
  7. The whole framing of Lebanums so called 'synopsis' is dishonest (something you seem unconcerned about). I'm not going to engage with a misrepresentation of the content of the FOI. My balanced view of the the actual information contained within the FOI however, is that there is no evidence of conspiracy, but rather robust statutory compliance, and strong alignment to Southwark's publicly declared and democratically mandated policy. They've acknowledged potential displacement impacts, and potential impacts around waste collections. However, they're undertaking it as a trial, with planned monitoring, which seems to be reasonable and proportionate way to proceed. They've also undertaken equality and health impact assessments, and there is clear cross‑departmental governance in place and transparent reporting. The absence of informal consultation, and compressed timelines are obviously things they're aware of themselves as being potential areas for criticism. You can tell they're mindful of the FOI / One brigade, who are more interested in wrecking tactics, than genuinely engaging with what works, as amply demonstrated on this thread. What is clear (and rather depressing) is how a handful of people who post regularly on this section and have a very particular agenda, have given up on any attempt at objectivity, or in some cases, even pretence of good faith debate or honest dialogue.
  8. Leaving aside the rights and wrongs of the AI summaries, has anyone actually had a substantive response from the council on next steps? Personally I'm fine with them trying to do some traffic calming as long as it's done in the round and with some warning and consultation. Unlike this proposal.
  9. It looks like one of the Dulwich Hill councillors will be standing down at the next election. I wonder if they are the same person who was willing to “own the backlash and bad press”.
  10. Photos hopefully show clearly the state of this vinatge Mattell Castle Greyskull. Only £55. Collection only SE5.
  11. There is a huge area, near Telegraph Hill which is public space… park.. decent distance between houses and park as well. Well, none of my business.. certainly can’t think of any think worse than thousands of people jammed into space, using hedges and rest of park as free urinals, really strange that they use that section as opposed to, guess you would call it open area ie no railings…

    Sam and Merle play dynamic, full-bodied arrangements of contemporary and traditional music using fiddle, drones and voices to build melodic lines inspired and improvised from traditional songs and dance music. They are two massively talented musicians, from Scotland and the North East of England . They both play fiddle and sing ; as well as Scottish fiddle Merle's playing is influenced by Irish, Scandinavian and Eastern European music. Sam also plays guitar. Expect tunes and songs performed with gumption, nuance , warmth and ferocity ( not all necessarily at the same time!) This is a London folk club debut from an act that is surely destined for bigger venues. Entrance is £12

  19. @Sue I think there was only 1 free day in the 7 day event GALA were asking for, that was the third day, after the first weekend. I think the second weekend was meant to be paid for access. I agree, the free Horniman music events are great but have nowhere near the same impact as GALA.
  20. @Earl Aelfheah you have carefully avoided saying whether you think any of the statements in the document provided by @Lebanums are untrue. Tell us which if any statements are untrue?
  21. Neither of those address the issue of cycling on the wrong side of the road.
  22. I'm going to pretend that your manner of proceeding with repairs and prioritising your to do list is completely alien to me.
  23. Lovely vintage pale apple green and gold 12 piece tea set (11 cups) with sugar bowl and milk jug £20
  24. Yes, it does. The Councillors themselves are clearly ashamed of this scheme, wanting it implemented immediately last autumn, in the vain hope that people will have forgotten about it by the time they come up for election in May.
  25. The thread is only embarrassing for the council, councillors and those who blindly support them in their active-travel/LTN quest. It is yet another proof point that what some of us have been saying about the way the council and councillors have been abusing the process may well be true.
