Here's a link to the website - https://afo.heathrowconsultation.com/ If you type in an ED postcode we are listed as being affected, looking at the details on how is a bit confusing! It doesn't appear to show what the current state is, so commenting on the implications of any expansion is hard. Looking at this page - https://feedback.heathrowconsultation.com/step/topic/1 which shows various scenarios, which we can comment on - but I'm not entirely sure what actual difference these changes will make from a noise perspective. Does anybody else have a sense of that?

Fab, looking forward to picking up my order there next week then!

Thanks both, they are limited for space at LL! Which one did you think was disorganised Singalto, LL or the station?

Does anybody know if the Lordship Lane M&S has stopped accepting deliveries? I?m trying to order something online and it?s only giving me the station store as a collection option. It?s not a huge issue, but living on NCR it?s not quite as convenient!

Any update? I?ve retweeted, although I have very few followers!

Please can you share their details? Maybe DM me if you don?t want to share them publicly.

Hi tomdhu - I imagine it?s tine consuming and not always successful, but there is a claim facility for business account holders, here https://business.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/648/~/how-to-make-a-claim---royal-mail-business-account

Well today I had a bumper delivery seven letters including all my missing items. Maybe somebody is listening?

To add to this, my post is missing I'm not saying it's been stolen. I'm more concerned about a backlog that has resulted in postal delays and with the festive period fast approaching, I think it's unlikely I'll see my missing post again. I rarely now get mail more than once a week.

Has anybody submitted a complaint? I did and was told that the sender could claim for missing post. Think it's fairly unlikely that my bank and utility company will bother going down this route though. When I first moved in my post was unreliable and they monitored post to my address for a period (letters arriving with a sticker saying 'if this arrives after x date' etc.). This time around RM aren't interested in helping. I've been sent a final order from my old utility company for a 'late' payment. The first letter never arrived and I have several bank statements outstanding.

I?ve submitted an online complaint because I?ve had a lot of post go missing. Most recently I?ve received a final warning for an unpaid utility bill from my old supplier. Not good. If we all submit complaints something might change, no?

Yep all running!

There?s no mention of it on the TFL site, which makes journey planning a little difficult. Has anybody been on the Lane this morning? Any whiff of a bus?

Any idea when the buses will return to LL?

Thanks both for your thoughts. I?ll see how things go over the coming days and make a decision. The last thing I want is ill feeling, so leaving it (and praying for rain) might be the right thing.

Hi team, I live next door to a takeaway, with indoor and outdoor seating. Same old story... it's the summer and windows are open. My bedroom is on the street and the proprietors sit outside (because it's too hot inside due to the cooking) all day and until 22.30-23.00 in the evening, talking loudly and chatting to passers-by. They sit on their property, but sound carries. I know my options are limited, but I have to get up early for work and I'm struggling to sleep. They also smoke out there and that drifts up to my bedroom. I'm going to have a chat to them before speaking to the council, but before I do I wanted to check his license. I've searched on the Southwark Council site and I can't find it. Should I be looking under his original planning application? I'm not sure what a takeaway (not serving alcohol) would come under. Any advice / suggestions welcome! Thanks team, A very tired, a slightly grumpy JW

Okay I have found this... https://www.transformingrail.com/download-southern-metro-weekday-timetables Whilst it looks like it's now in the consultation stage, from May 2018 the 'Wimbledon Loop' (ED to LB) service should revert to once every ten minutes. Departing Mon-Fri from ED to LB at 07.02, 07.08, 07.23, 07.32, 07.38, 07.53, 08.02, 08.08, 08.23, 08.32 and 08.38 (and only taking 13 minutes into LB again) And once every ten minutes Mon-Fri in the evening too between 16.44 and 18.44. Hoo-blooming-rah!

Oh 29 March! I'm going to email them instead.

Yes agreed this is more the point - we'd like our pre-LB works frequency of service back, rather than whether we should have a 07.40 or an 08.40. Let's not settle, we used to have both, we should have both again! I'm going to ask at the next 'meet the managers' thing at LB - whenever that is.

Call me greedy but we used to have a 07.40, 08.00 and an 08.40. Congestion at LB was the reason given for terminating some of the services at South Bermondsey. But now that the work at LB has finished we should get these services back shouldn?t we? Although I?m still unsure how we?re impacted by the Thameslink timetable.

Even though we?re not Thameslink?

Thanks DulwichFox - my point was more around whether the service would revert to one train every ten minutes from ED to LB during rush hour? Rather than the existing service, where the 07.40 and 08.02 terminate at South Bermondsey. Any ideas? Have fun at the game!

London Bridge officially reopened today to much fanfare. Does anybody know whether this means that Southern trains will all now run to London Bridge as opposed to two an hour terminating at South Bermondsey?
