Should this thread have the words "Carry on" added to it ? That of course would lead to questions on who plays whom Sid James as Farage or is Kenneth Williams more appropriate 🤔 We could have a whole separate thread on this alone.

Sorry Mal, looks like you are going solo as Ted isn't sharing his fudge with you 😅

Nigello, would love to revisit this in 10 years and see if the lane is the same, better or worse. Will be an interesting thing to watch and sometimes a simple change is the catalyst for bigger improvements to occur. Guess we can't at this time predict the future

Bob Do you have property in Devon as well ? You sound like the busy body neighbour in this article 😅 https://www.devonlive.com/news/property/busybody-neighbour-upset-dont-use-10165200

Come on people, do you really enjoy the current dreary passages outside station or would you prefer a light airy entrance which, as one of the main ways in to Peckham, would welcome visitors rather than making them feel it's a grotty run down area ? The station building needs exposing after so many years of being hidden behind ugly facades and this will help change views of Peckham as a run down shopping area which may help bring more inward investment in the area, help reduce the perception of crime (open spaces are harder to grafitti for example) and help make it a destination again much like when it was called the golden mile (1960s) Personally, the removal of the ugly buildings in front of the station is a good thing.

Well This went off track quickly

The deal with America is currently being announced Is it a good one for us or have we been sold a pigs ear as a silk purse ? Personally as it involves Beef bring imported to the UK, I don't believe its in the public interest. Interested to see others reaction

I think Mal is propositioning Ted for a secret behind the bike shed liason 😅

These works are planned maintenance, not emergency work so coordination had to be made in advance with TfL and hopefully Southwark council which is why someone in either organisation should have said "hang on lads, this is bad timing" But who am I to spot the bleeding obvious ?

I think the concern is more to do with the sheer number of roadworks that are in the area at the moment. Gasworks are essential but anyone trying to get to Camberwell by public transport faces the choice of pavement widening by East Dulwich station or these gas works and road works at Camberwell Church Street. Top this off with the ones on the south circular plus the ones on crystal palace parade and it does feel like we are slowly getting cut off from going anywhere. Obviously some coordination isn't happening to get the timings right which is why people are discussing it.

Depends on budget and numbers So many great choices and options, for a fun evening there's Kix,for a special meal evening Franklin's, for a cheap evening Megan's Or Kokum for a lovely different Indian, Maria's for tapas or oru for vegan / vegetarian.

Think it was a tripe based dog food but i could be wrong

It still amuses me that the cycling community on here are still basically arguing that it's fine to break the law and that because they aren't nororised speed limits shouldn't apply. Madness argument as the law is the law six years in the iso-cubes for jumping a red light citizen

Think you've smoked one too many banana skins there 😅

Looks like your theory on voting reform is turning to reality Both main parties are getting a spanking which reflects on how they've treated the public recently (from party gate to pensions raids and employer NI increases) Labourbwant to go faster and further which may sink them further into the quagmire Torys possibly haven't a hope in hell in reforming before 4 years are up I dispare over UK politics at the moment, but then again looking at America, we're all doomed , doomed I say
