Hello dad types. just found this after posting a request for this elsewhere. Anything still giogn on here? Is this an evening thing only? thought I read something about weekend afternoons somewhere. Anyone interested?

Hey, suspect this has come up a number of times before, but what goes on for dads and little ones (eg: mines a year and a half)? Is there a monthly kid and pint meeting, dog walk in the park, etc? Give the missus the afternoon off, and we'd get out and about and meet some more little folks. Must be. thanks.

Hi there, who is doing the food waste composting for the project? Southwark Council? thanks

Sorry, yes, there was a small dig a prams, but no nod towards 'pedestrian' exlusive - rather, car free. If car free, then loads more room to share with 'other' users, like prams. On prams, I can only comment that Crouch End has/is going to launch a 'visitor/shopper' freindly approach by offering (I think) toddler care services and encouraging car-free zones. http://www.thecrouchendproject.co.uk. I will myself be very soon with infant to negotiate... The main issue is really the cars. Simply, we could see public vehicles excluded from 8-6?, with right of way for traders/shop holders. Indeed, most available parking is occupied by traders anyway during the market days, and not used by shoppers/visitors. I'm much more concerned about environmentally friendly and safe communities than anything else. Although, I can't imagine this topic not having been hotly debated previously.

Disclaimer: This is my first foray into the politics of ED. I'm sorry, but why is it that N Cross Rd is NOT closed to [Public] vehicular traffic during the Market? At the very least - Saturday - between Lordship and Fellbrigg. FOR: - Vendors would get a better flow of foot traffic, - therefore more business ?? - More room on the pavement for visitors - a more enjoyable shopping/ED experience - significant Health & Safety benefits to vendors AND visitors (ask Guy the Butcher how many times his van has been hit) - Vendors could place stalls on opposite side of road and have greater stall space AGAINST: ? Seriously. Current pavement issues: - clogged with prams (is all that stuff really necessary for a 30 min shop?!) - please be considerate - vendors sitting around bonfires !?! smoking cigarettes. Hmm, how attractive is this to ANY market visitor. Is this even legal? PS: It would also be very nice if there was a vendor selling hot food at the Market (eg: sausages & mash; samosas; noodles; breakfast buns; pulled pork sarnies; ??)
