Re: Parking problems
Me again.. So under the lewisham council web site there is a useful overview of the CPZ scheme. At the bottom of the page is a link to request a review of parking in an area. So I am going to share this with neighbours and also send in my view via the link. Please share with any local residents you ...

Re: Parking problems
I am pleased I am not in the minority here! However this issue is spread far across sydenham from the Newlands ladder, the Thorpes and upper sydenham. I am absolutely for a permit system. And happy to pay. Yes the Newlands Parkers do park on Tredown, I guess they don't want to leave their car on a m...

Re: Parking problems
I have done some curtain twitching research.... The houses directly opposite and next to me are a mix of house and flats. Out of c18 homes there are only 7 cars! So it's not too many residents. It is commuters and businesses. I am going to write a neighbourly letter and see what I get back... I pers...

Parking problems

Re: Golden Lion pub
Paid my 2nd visit to GL last Saturday eve, hoping for dinner. The pub was half empty and lit so brightly it doesn't give any warmth or create an atmosphere you want to stay in. Such a shame. The staff were aplenty but poor customer service. We sat with a menu on our table for a good 30 mins but nobo...

Re: Local Damp Survey Company

Having read this thread I called the guy at Assured Preservations. Really helpful and talked to me about damp c...

Re: Need someone to deal with damp problem
Hi I have used these guys in the past

You don't have to use them for remedial work but they did a good survey for me a couple of years ago.

Re: If you moved form Sydenham, where would you go?
Wouldn't love anywhere else in london.
Move would be out of london, somewhere near the sea!
Pub grub, crystal palace or in town
Waitrose, Lidl, sainsburys.

Re: Another violent incident on Sydenham high street
I agree Eagle, what's happening? I have lived here for over 10 years, brought my daughter up here. Never known such a spate of violence. Very sad.
