New signs for old

All the street name signs in the area have been replaced. My simple question is why? What was wrong with the old ones?

I think it all happened last summer but my unobservant self has only just noticed the extent of the replacement. It's especially noticable on the walls of painted houses that have the signs attached. There is now an unpainted patch due to the new signs being a different shape.

..I doubt that anything is WRONG with them but the budgets for FY 2006 will have just closed in March so the Southwark Street Furniture or Urban Stylists (?!) will have needed to have spent their budget in order to ensure that they get at least the same plus an estimated 10% for the next financial year. Why wait till signs need replacing / speed bumps added / pavements re-dug up and re-tarmacced- that would just be to practical...

      Would Leon install a new double oven? Our eye level double oven was installed when we had our kitchen installed around 20 years ago and will need to be replaced with similar. I think we had 2 people to install it then - so does Leon work alone?

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      My car was registered in 2004. Automatic, ULEZ compatible.  Used to use it daily for work until 2016 when retired. Still used 3-5 days weekly after that as was doing voluntary work. My mobility has gradually declined and  it is painful to walk.. Family live in Kent, Essex and Sussex - so need car to visit them. My car battery is 2 years old - when had to call out RAC to assist at home as it was dead, they found it was the original battery installed in 2004!! My car is essential - shopping each week, being able to go to garden centres, or DIY stores, taking the cat to the vet and  other social activities. I now only half fill with petrol every 3- 4 weeks, so save that way. I am careful  with my finances and would be lost without the car. It is regularly maintained (Turners).

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      By Pugwash · Posted

      I remember Tesco- it was on the corner of North Cross Road where Superdrug is now. Very small if I remember correctly.  We shop in Pound land - having discovered that shampoo and conditioner (brand names) were only £1 each. Good selection of most things that we need on a regular basis. It is better than the one in Peckham. Never noticed loud music when I have been in there and have always found the staff helpful and cheerful.
