On Lordship Lane right now, it is not snowing and the road is being used as normal. I have seen some snow still on some pavements and side roads but turning to slush. Not sure what the trains are like but buses appear to be running ok. All could change if there's more snow this afternoon but looks ok for the moment.

Although it's smowing it is also above freezing - that means that what was compacted snow/ ice earlier this morning can now be easily shifted - by anyone who wants to clear previously compacted frozen snow away from their frontages. It will (almost certainly) fall below freezing tonight which means that anything still compacted will be treacherous tomorrow morning. Garden paths, driveways, pavements - the trick may be to do this as late as possible whilst still not frozen to avoid build up, or when it stops snowing (if it does).

Just walked across the park and back to the dentist. Snowing strongly all across it and the lake is frozen over. What's more, I fed a dog biscuit to a beautiful King Charles Cavalier Spaniel only to see that at the other end of the lead was one of the McGann brothers. Wow. Anyway, so the park is absolutely beautiful and the ducks and geese would welcome some spare bread!

Please not bread! Bird feed if you must - I know how enjoyable it is to feed them (especially the greedy geese who will happily hand feed) but try to resist the temptation.


advice on feeding ducks - don't



PS - Am jealous of McGann Watch - I shall stalk all the KCC Spaniels I see from now on.

Not surprised to hear this - the 63 bus I got on this morning at the FHT found going down the hill fairly difficult at 8am, and we gently drifted into the right hand lane (no oncoming traffic) before the driver got traction back by the church

This is the unfortunate problem that those displays and live depatures online are not always as accurate as they claim to be

Oh... I have my snow boots under the desk just in case I have to walk any distance but which buses are running may influence which route home I take to get most of the way home. I'd have a shortest walk from Forest Hill station but have to pay for extension and overall journey time longer than going to Denmark Hill or Peckham Rye and getting bus.

    • James  may have initiated the boards but there would have been a group of people who would have taken in turn to keep boards up to date. When locks and boards were vandalised  it took some while (around 2 years) for the council to repair/replace and many of the group who maintained them, moved/died. I know James was not seen so much in ED due to  family  illness/bereavement  and I believe he also changed his job.
