BIDDY - I'm not quite sure what you mean about reviews (reviews for plywood? reviews for timber yards?), but the best local place to buy this kind of ply (it's called furniture-grade birch multi-ply) is from Whitten's Timber in Peckam. Be prepared: by the square metre or by the sheet - the full size is 8' x 4' (and will not go in car) - it is relatively very expensive (and also exceptionally heavy. There is little point in using this grade unless you are going to retain it's natural appearance by leaving it bare, or waxing, oiling or varnishing it. This is to say, if you are going to paint it, use far cheaper grades. Finally, unless you are a carpenter with an industrial electic table saw, most thicknesses quite impossible to cut accurately, or ofen even cut, at home. So - although I have no idea what you are making with it - the idea is to take your sized-up working drawing to Whittens and pay them to cut the components for you. Their cutting charges are very fair. Good luck - DIX

    • Nope FM. I'll pay. I'll also pay for public transport all across the UK so none if it needs to be ticket funded. Shall pay as much tax as I can on everything. Coppers, hospitals, fire fighters, schools, decent free meals for all kids, army/navy/RAF, care for old folk, whatever. I'll pay as much as I can. What goes around comes around.
    • And I'm sure that all those living in the peripheral roads which have had more traffic forced on them are so happy that the few in the Village, whether they wanted it or not, are relieved of fumes. They are so much more deserving than us peripheral peasants. 
    • Doesn’t the evidence suggest that LTNs lead to a reduction in crime?  it’s weird how LTNs seem to be leaped upon every time there is an issue or a perceived issue. I don’t understand the visceral hatred of attempts to cut down traffic and the resultant pollution and the need to blame all societal ills on it. I suspect structural inequality or some form of trauma or other mental health issue is likely the cause of the ‘suspicious male’s’ criminality, assuming he was actually up to no good as asserted.    The LTNs are heavenly! It’s so nice not to breathe in choked up fumes and listen to the swearing and horns that used to ring throughout court lane and calton ave at commuter peak times. It was absolutely awful to be in the village back then.    people aren’t going to commit crime because the roads are more peaceful. They’ll commit crime because of any other number of social and economic factors, but I guess that’s a bit boring compared with finding any old excuse to bang the LTN drum again.
