OK, ignore that, they kicked everyone off at the gardens.

My journey didnt seem so bad - from westminster to elephant & castle to camberwell green where most buses were terminating, instead of standing there like the many other lemons (sorry but really if you see so many people gathered at a bus stop do you really think you're going to get on the next bus that is going to come along?) I chose to walk home, yes I said walk! ::o instead of tackling Demark Hill/Dog Kennel Hill went through to peckham, up the back streets and home in about an hour and a half (taking the slipping and sliding on the main roads into consideration it's none too bad). Noticing a fair number of buses that have come down dog kennel hill all quite empty... where did all the people go?

Bendy bus skidded starting journey from Etherow St and has been blocking Barry Rd both ways since 4 pm.

Big up for the sole Bus driver who has taken it upon himself to direct traffic at junction of Goodrich .

Surface of Barry Rd seems to be mixture of slush and ice.

Watched several vans with spinning wheels.

Can I clarify - I am not taking the number 12. I'm going to take the 176 from Aldwych to ED. Is there anyone who can give me some info on whether this route is running please.

I took the Victoria line down to Brixton, hopped on a 37 (coming every 6 minutes according to counter on stop) to North Dulwich station (which took slightly longer than usual - about 15 minutes) and walked from there up Court Lane to LL. The traffic was crawling through the village and cars on LL/South Circular were moving about 10ft every other minute if they were lucky. Saw 4 buses southbound - 2 terminating at Dulwich Library, 2 apparently going to Victoria/TCR respectively but not moving much. Didn't see any northbound buses on that stretch at all.

      Dulwich Hill SNT - "Cuppa with a Coppa"

      By alice · Posted

      The name has got a 50s feel about it so in my mind it’s for older people who have very specific concerns. Nothing wrong with that.

      There is also one for Goose green https://www.police.uk/pu/your-area/metropolitan-police-service/goose-green/?yourlocalpolicingteam=your-team Disclaimer: only passing on what I have found by searching. No involvement in organising it.

      Lordship Lane Post Office Closure

      By Cyclemonkey · Posted

      It is a challenge.  These sorts of services are increasingly expensive to deliver as fewer and fewer people use them.  Most people don't want to have to go back to using their lunch hour to queue up at the bank or Post Office.  So the options  are - reduce the service, make it more expensive or the tax payer subsidises it.

      Surely increasing profits are not the reason? It's more about  preventing massive losses? You can't keep things going at vast expense because a few people still use them. We would still be in the stone age. There are always going to be some people who find it hard to use "modern" technology (which has been going for decades). I would have thought the answer was for those people to learn how to do the things they need to do? I'm sure lots of help must be available?  I'm one of the ancient ones, and around the end of the nineties I went on a free course to be taught how to go online and use the internet. It was quite a steep learning curve, but so is learning anything new. So in previous years was learning to use a PC and word processing. So was learning Excel and spreadsheets.  If you need to use something, you have to learn how to do it! Some people may not have the mental  capacity to do this, but in that case surely they will be getting support in other areas of their daily life already? And as regards the possible  closure of the crown post office (note - possible) we don't know what alternative arrangements may be made should this happen, so it seems a bit premature to be protesting about it at this point.
