The tribunal found that the driver was right and the council were well out of order though. HTH.

"Once the final design is approved, we will be crowdfunding to cover the preparation and protection of the mural." You mean you went through all this and asked people to spend their time voting when you don;'t even have any money to finance this project?!

Seems unlikley it wouldn't be recyclable in this day and age.

The younger generations have never been grateful!

Recyclable plastic presumably?

...and those first time buyers build equity by paying down their mortgage and having had a deposit in the first place. On a 500k property with a 450k mortgage you might expect to have 100k of equity after 5 years assuming no increases in prices. On a 700k second hiome after five years you would pay out of you 100k of equity ?25k of SDLT, ?5k for the estate agent (!!) and have 70k left over for your 10% deposit on the second home. In that scenario you don't need to find any ready money to move up a rung.

You only really need to find cold hard cash to pay stamp duty the first time you buy. From then on it comes out of the equity you have built up in your home.

Presumably even a second charge that ranked behind the banks would still stop the bank from repossessing the property and selling it. That would be a big problem for some banks surely?

Typical behaviour of a London cyclist I'm afraid. They are a menace.

All 4 of those houses on Upland Road are still listed for sale as new builds https://www.zoopla.co.uk/new-homes/property/london/upland-road-se22/?category=residential&include_auctions=true&new_homes=only&q=upland%20road&results_sort=newest_listings&search_source=new-homes

26 mph is 30% above the speed limit. It's the same as doing 40 in a 30. How is that the acceptable cut off for a ticket?

I suspect they keep the fence there simply to reserve their parking outside the frontage rather than for any health and safety reasons.

It was discussed at length on one of the old councillor's threads and nothing was ever done (notwithstanding accident and speeding surveys!)

That stretch of EDR is a strange place to speed because invariably the cars catch up to traffic or hit a queue either for the lights or for the roundabout, so they could only ever save themselves about 3 seconds by going so fast.

Was he in the red car? If so it might have been difficult to open the driver's door if he'd moved further forward, what with that tree being where it is.

It is a bizarre communication. Why did they bother?

Can hear the music inside my house from over a mile away! (Windows open, obviously, given the weather). Must be pretty bad for any one who actually lives close to the park.

?3,80 a pint !

Are the owners the same then?

Hi Suzanne, please may I ask how much Urban Village charge for commission (percentage wise). Many thanks

A comedy of errors! (Unless you live there I guess!)

I don't think we'll hear very much more from the East Dulwich councillors on this forum.

How did you manage to jump the queue for a stall on North Cross Road?

It's going to be Costa Coffee
