Couldn't agree with you more, which is why i'm not getting particularly het up about speed bumps in the slightest.

Doesn't seem to be a pre-requisite on edf Panda. Forum fashion is to launch straight in guns blaring - GERRRRRRRRROONNNIMMMMMOOOOOOO! Am quite getting used to it :)

Apparently so Voyageur, but it is a very tiresome quality...

I try not to post on here for that very reason, but after 2 near misses in the space of 2 minutes this week I felt compelled to try and bring it up as a local issue.

Will know better in future and keep my trap shut.

Or get myself a tank...

PB, people make all sorts of polite (and not so polite) requests on EDF - I nearly didn't read this thread beacuse I thought it might be about asking people to confine their use of tomato sauce to their chips, or about not being able to buy things out of the charity shop window, or even asking people to drive more sensibly


why don't you just re-post on the main drag with a title that alludes to driving down the middle of ED roads to straddle the speed bumps? also, why the humility i.e. 'proabbly pointless request'?


With any luck, Admin (Peace be on him/her) will feel compassion for you and your post and let it be, you will stir up loads of EDF argy-bargy about the right to drive any damn way they please, whether it's on a fire-breathing unicorn, a 4X4, or just a 10-year old Corsa, and you might even have influenced a few people into driving on their side of the road...

civilservant, thnak you so much for your reasoned response.

Various points taken on board, including the title of my original thread and the humilty!

I've had a chat with the all seeing and knowing Admin and all appears to be well...


And if anyone would like to defend the councils action on the ED Grove / Rye junction i'd love to hear it. I know theres an ongoing post about it so will not mention it here.


Thanks again

      Nursery school

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
