It is, yes.

Does anyone know if change of use is needed for a nail bar from a boiler shop?

Yes, my mistake. Was told quarter to five

House Fire. Started around 5.45. Three fire engines in attendance. House was being renovated, apparently. Hope everyone is ok.

Alwyn, I didn't realise the queue was 125 long! Whenever I've called its been below 10, but that was before Covid.

I have to disagree with Syd about Sydenham green morning phone appointments. I've rang a few times around 8.00 am and while I may have been on the phone for 10 minutes or so, I've always managed to get a same day appointment when needed. I think this year that the practice has probably been overwhel...

Catford has two railway stations.
I have lived here for 25 years and have seen a lot of changes; some of it instigated by the Council. The High Street regeneration had a mixed reception but there was considerable investment and it is better than it was before.

I agree with Pally. Parking is ok too there.

The reason The Dolphin has gone over to pizza is that the landlord's Greenwich pup has closed down and he relocated the pizza oven from there. Also, he has contracted out the food offer to another company that only does pizza. I had to laugh that the day after the Dolphin reopened, Tratt Raff announ...

Apparently there is a petition to make Mayo Road safer. Its detailed here, if you can stand all the pop ups. https://www.mylondon.news/news/south-london-news/killer-south-london-road-passersby-18773140 I feel its a bit sensationalist, but three deaths in 10 years sounds high. I dare say there were o...

I'm annoyed by this, but mainly because I never wanted to be a Barclays customer in the first place. I was a member of the Woolwich, which had the branch until demutualisation 1997. Barclays said at the time that they bought the Woolwich for its brilliant customer service, then promptly closed on th...

I saw a bloke on a very noisy, small green motorbike, very fast down Lennard Road earlier tonight. Appeared to be ridden by a middle aged white guy in a grey hoody with no helmet. He was bald and had mad staring eyes. I think he was on something, other than the small green motorbike.
Stay safe

Thanks for clearing that up gismo, its only taken 14 years!
Welcome to the forum; cracking first post.

Shame they couldn't spell the Liberal Democrat's name correctly. Shoddy.

Here for Good (Forest Hill Community Church) used to host a Christmas Lunch for the homeless on the day. They could perhaps do with some help.

Looks as if there was a very serious accident at the junction of Newlands Park and Sydenham Road. I say accident but there only appears to be once car involved and it looks burned out? When I drove past at 2.45 the car was surrounded by police tape. Does anyone know what happened? I think it was a B...

Any Volvo owners would do well to use Dundalk Motors in Brockley. Good work at a fraction of the cost of a Volvo dealer. Knighton Motors for non-specialist and MOTs.

It would appear that John H may have a point: https://www.newsshopper.co.uk/news/1778 ... ref=twtrec

Not an issue now.
