Due to the storm local parks may be locked tomorrow.


Note from Southwark pasted below.



Dear Tennis players,


I wanted to make you aware that there is a strong likelihood that we will be closing some of our parks (the lockable ones) tomorrow due to the risk of danger to residents from tree and branch fall as Storm Eunice moves across the south east. The safety of our park users is a priority and this precautionary action is in line with the council's Tree Risk Management Strategy and best practice relating to high winds.


The aim is to reopen the parks that have been locked, and tennis activities, on Saturday subject to safety checks and any clearance works that are required. Not knowing the extent of the damage and debris that might be caused we are unable to judge how much time it will take for parks to be cleared, so court bookings will be cancelled on Saturday in case venues have not been cleared / reopened earlier. Court bookers within this time will be cancelled and refunded automatically. Anyone that might be affected outside of this time can request a refund by emailing [email protected] with photo evidence of the issue preventing play.




As is always the case with the weather, things may change over the course of the next 24 hours and the best way to stay in touch with developments is via the council social media channels. We invite you to share these posts more widely.


Our tree service team, tree contractors and grounds maintenance team will be on standby to deal with any issues as we will be keen to get back to normal service as soon as possible.


If you have any questions please contact the sports email - [email protected]


I appreciate your patience and understanding at this potentially busy time.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      The problem is Starmer can't shut up about his dad being a tool maker, they made Keir,  a right prize tool. Reeves continually blames the previous Govt, but correct me if I'm wrong but inflation was decreasing, unemployment was stagnant, with decreases and the occasional increase, things were beginning to stabalise overall.    Then we had the election 4 July when Starmer and co swept to power, three months on things are worse than they were before, yet Reeves continues to blame the former Govt. The national debt doubled overnight with public sectors all getting a wage increase and now the budget that penalises business with the increase in Employers national insurance. The result of which will be increased prices in the shops, increased inflation, increased numbers of redundancies, increased unemployment and increased pressures on the DWP to fund this    Future growth will go backwards and become negative, farmers will no longer farm in protest against the Govt, more people will become poorer and unable to pay their bills, things will spiral out of control and we'll have a repeat of the General Strike until this bunch of inept politicians resign and Kemi and co prevent the ship from hitting the iceberg and sinking.

      Indeed so.  Just noting there are other options and many children and indeed young adults may well be perplexed and/or irritated by a cheque.

      My experience of the CT is that when they screw up, their first instinct is to cover up. They are also shameless liars.

      And that's your choice, but it's not everyone's choice.  Some people don't like or can't do what you do.
