Has anyone noticed how it seems that on Platform 1 (London Bridge bound) of the East Dulwich train station they seem to have replaced the seating (excellent) but have forgotten to replace the ones other than under the covered area (not excellent). This results in about 5 less benches in connection with an upgrade of others. Can this really be true?

Hi


Sophia is right, I wouldnt do that......I would not leave you without seating, they have been removed in preperation for the new ones being put in place, in total 12 new benches, plus the new additional shelter which is now on order


Kind regards


Barry

Hi


A little confused by the posting on a couple of points, the original shelters are still there so you wouldn't get wet, the additional one is on order so that would not make a difference due to the fact you have never had it and the 12 new benches are in place. I have been to ED to start checking the works and noticed they are all there


The works will be finished this weekend, the contractors are slightly behind as they need to switch off the power to finish the trackside graffiti and white edges to platforms and only have a small window to complete these works


Regards

AMAZING HOW UPTIGHT SOME PEOPLE ARE BEING ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO SIT DOWN FOR 5 MINS BEFORE A TRAIN ARRIVES - JEEZUZ !!

I KNOW IT'S A CONVENIENCE TO DO SO BUT HARDLY CHANGES YOUR LIFE TO HAVE SOME SEATS REPLACED DOES IT !!

PREGNANT / OLD / DISABLED FOLKS EXCEPTED, TO A DEGREE.

Yeh, it would be better if they never bothered trying to improve the station, it's so inconvenient - not to mention a risk to health - while they're doing it :))

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
