The white wall at the side of the property in question had large and ugly tagging on it the other day. I was about to report it to the council (which would then approach the owner and offer to remove it for them) but the day after I passed by and the graffiti had been painted over, so thanks to the owners for doing that.

Blimey, I hope 400K wasn't spent on painting bollards outside the shops. I have noticed the aerosol man has started up again recently. I hope the street gets tidied up a little and bins are sorted out by the time the new hairdressers gets it's grand opening.

Paving or tarmacking the whole of that stretch - from the barber's down to the new shop on the corner of Dunstan's Road - in a uniform way would be a big help and not that difficult. Of course, you'd have to stop the motorists who ride the pavement and park outside the shops (usually the betting shop and the launderette) otherwise it'd get damaged all over again. Anyone know whether driving over the pavement - which seems to the be a thin strip of paving that then gives way to the odd assortment of tarmac in front of various properties - is legal?

I think that the assorted surfaces are due to those sections belonging to the shops/buildings, rather than being part of the pavement. If that is the case then I believe you may put a car or something else on your own land, but you don't necessarily have the right of way across the pavement to get it there. Typically I think a dropped kerb would indicate right of way.

That work seems to have been going on for ages - and is being conducted at a snail's pace! The state of the pavement is always really muddy around there now as well.

P.s. Just checked council website - sounds like it's going to be a dental surgery:

      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.

      Yes thanks that's exactly the choices I get.  I will block and if somehow they find a way back I'll report.
