Pharmacists are highly trained healthcare providers and antibiotic resistance is well within their area of expertise. Let's not assume they're "handing out" anything.

Forget about it. These people aren't happy if they're not moaning online.

That's good news. I saw that DVillage is also being renovated. Now the pavement in front is wider and flatter with the recent works, they'll have a nice setup indoors and outdoors.

Good news. Can't get anything done in this country without months or years of pissing around. Councils need to be let get on with doing stuff instead of having to gather the "input" of their most opinionated, time-rich residents. "Blocked in consultation...virtually every move is box ticking" Well, which is it? A process that does block council action or a process that doesn't block council action because it's a sham? You can't have it both ways. All these procedural moans about process and consultation and feelings are just waffle to distract from the moaners' real point: that they don't like what happened as an outcome.

At 377 Lordship Lane? It's unusual - every eighteen months or so there will be some work done, and then nothing happens. I passed by last week and the door was open - it seems to be decorated in the style of a western saloon, there were bottles of booze on the shelves, and tradies doing something again.

But you don't know that, do you? An awful lot of leaping to wild conclusions and drawing unsustainable inferences there. Those things really upset you, apparently. 🤣

That's probably why the DVLA puts the words "This document is not proof of ownership" across the V5C form.

The DVLA doesn't record who is the owner of a vehicle. It records who is the "registered keeper".

The DVLA does not keep records of ownership of vehicles.

When there is no bike lane at all, that's also what happens - drivers are opening their doors right where bike are being ridden. 🤷

Least said, soonest mended.

That is the assumption that any normal person would make upon coming across a smashed up abandoned car that's been driven on the wrong side of the road and flattened a traffic light, yes.

They're investigating reports that the sky is falling. So fat, they've all been unsubstantiated...

lol! 😂

Maybe you lot moaning about the social media activity of people you disagree with should actually go onto that social network and argue with them directly there? Banging on about it here is weird behaviour.

It may have been a reference to "cloned plates". The scam works like: 1) present fraudulent documents to dealer to obtain car on credit. 2) find a car that is identical or similar to yours, have plates made up with THEIR registration number, put those plates on your vehicle. 3) the finance company will realise it's not being paid or the transaction was a scam, but police etc won't be able to find the car because it has someone else's plates on it. 4) either drive around in the car until your luck runs out, or sell it to a mark for cash, or dismember it and resell the parts

You keep banging on about this Twitter account. Go and bicker with them on Twitter.

"Rush hour" was completely wrong on my part - as I was walking past, a police car was parking up and I assumed it had just happened. In fact, from the media reports, it looks like the car had been sitting abandoned on top of a dead traffic light for hours by that point! Apologies for any confusion, @alice.

Absolutely disgusting that you're willing to make such a kneejerk reaction. There are a many different reasons why things like this happen and often careless, dangerous driving or excess speed has nothing to do with it but it seems all too easy to jump to conclusions without ever bothering to establish the facts. Not every accident is due to bad driving. As much as it could have been careless or dangerous driving it could also have been caused by a driver having to take evasive action to avoid a pedestrian walking into the road whilst staring at their phone - you just don't know.

Don't worry about it - you're paying to fix everything regardless. https://x.com/DulwichRoads/status/1858822691517591745 That's a few thousand quid that could have been spent on social care but now will be spent replacing a traffic light. I bet the driver and their insurers appreciate your subsidy.

The scene this morning, as a driver smacked their BMW dead on into a traffic light outside a primary school during rush hour. 20mph zone, as you can tell... Traffic light destroyed, P4 service blocked in both directions, southbound traffic closed...

Proving my point there. 🎩

My irony-o-meter just exploded with that last comment.

Sometimes things are none of our business and it's vulgar to be a nosey parker.
