They sound great! :)
I've always found the notion that teenagers have to be given something to do slightly odd. So many phone-in radio shows where people blame teenage crime on the fact that "all the Youth Centres have been closed down" yet when I was a teenager if ther…
I quite liked it.
:)
This camera is puzzling.
Was it mentioned as part of the CPZ or is it a separate initiative?
I can't believe it's meant to be part of the CPZ (how could it work?!) so it must be there for another reason. Security? To ward off burglars? To dispel i…
You'll be lucky. They have the wonderful advantage of living close to a popular railway station AND not have pesky commuters wanting to park (also) close to the station.
Anyway, apparently you can just ask for your own CPZ. So I read somewhere. Eas…
I still find it odd that people who live near a train station expect to not have any commuter parking in their road.
When buying/renting a property various things come in to play when making the decision, One of these is proximity to such train sta…
Chinese whispers, it seems. The lines have been painted in Blandford Road today.
Today's CPZ Permit 'Batting' Average (CPZ Permits/Number of Cars I walked Past On My Way Home): 0.154 (4/26).
Ah, but as long as the people who asked for it are happy...
Today's CPZ Permit 'Batting' Average (CPZ Permits/Number of Cars I walked Past On My Way Home): 0.389 (7/18).
Now this information is third, or is it fourth, hand and so could be a case of chinese whispers but a lady up the road had spoken to the Council about her missing permit. In the course of that conversation it transpired that they don't intend to pai…
Not very surprising really. Meanwhile, according to the photo my wife sent me earlier, we have spaces a-plenty outside our house..not sure how useful they are to the rest of us.
Noel (you must know Noel!) says he got a free book of visitor permits.…
Fuller report from my wife (and I quote - even though at one point she said not to):
"1. There is no sign of any pay and display activity down the bottom (no signs, no lines, no machines).
2. There are a great number of cars not showing a permit th…
Blandford Road CPZ +5:25
Apparently the signs have gone up. No lines though. Awaiting trip by my remote investigator (my Wife) to see if the Pay & Display Bays have been marked or signed.
Yesterday one of our next door neighbours pointed out that i…
Yes, we have our small piece of paper worth £75 (or however much it was) and our book of visitor permits.
Interesting, Jon. The part that got us most interested was this from the council spokesperson:
“We do tend to not enforce parking restrictions within the first four weeks of a scheme going live."
“This is to give motorists the chance to get used to…

Glove, bat and cleats, always kept at the ready. Used to play mostly over Chiswick way at weekends, and Ad League in Regents Park.
