Hi, I was wondering if anybody could advise me on this. I am moving into a house that's in the middle of a CPZ, and need to get myself a parking permit. I need the parking permit before my move so that I can park my car. However, Southwark Council won't (for reasons that I understand) allow me to buy a permit online before I get a council tax number for the property in question. I was wondering if anybody knows how I can solve this vexing conundrum by doing something like: 1. Buying a post-dated parking permit using my new rental contract as proof, or 2. Buying a temporary parking permit, or 3. Getting a council tax number in advance. I was very surprised that Southwark Council's website didn't have anything on this at all. I can't be the first person to face this issue! :-( Thanks in advance, Sid

I've just quit my membership at the Fusion Club after one year of growing increasingly frustrated with the general unpleasantness of the free weights area (people not wiping down, hogging the equipment, etc), the smelly changing rooms (guys, urinals exist for a reason. Don't take a wee in the shower!!), and the overcrowding (it appears as though they really don't consider the number of people that can fit in the gym). I am currently considering joining ESPH. I was wondering if anybody who is/has been a member had any thoughts on the gym. Is it worth the extra ?20 that it costs compared to other gyms? Did the physical trainers help you achieve your goals? Ta in advance!
