I would like to thank the people who helped me this evening when my Mum collapsed on Westwood Park. I know it's a long shot but if you are reading this, I want you to know I will be forever grateful f...

And is the removal of the planters temporary or permanent?

All station users will all be aware the planters were moved several weeks ago, no explanation given, no indication if this was permanent. I noticed today the toilet has been barricaded off and som...

Apologies for so many messages, last one from me for today. The refuse cart collects twice a week, no vehicles can now enter or exit when the cart is present. It was there for 10 minutes this morning.

@Hannahm, I also believe that compromise can be found, sensible suggestions have been put forward about removing obstacles and widening the pavement by WHsmiths. The problem for me is that the option ...

@borderpaul, you make excellent points. Especially about not knocking the rest of FH over this issue. I would not normally continue to cry over spilt milk but this idea and trial is so flawed that it...

Creative thinking, putting planters in a position to block a station exit is hardly creative, and what happens now? There is £11,000 of funding left, what is that going to be used for, it's not going ...

I wouldn't have applied for the funding in the first place. It's a shame to see local charities miss out on the opportunity of some much needed funds.

Exit of Pearcefield Avenue car park. I know some London councils are cracking down on these bikes, not sure Lewisham will be one of them.

Just so people are aware, this is not a 3 month trial. The FHsoc have ended the trial early. I find it sad that having lived in FH for approaching 50 years, an organisation I used to have great re...

There was a vehicle fire outside the Hill which damaged the building. Amazingly, it's already reopened.

Quite. But I have to say, I've never seen the pavement crowded as most pedestrians use the 'road' by choice, that said the pavement is narrow. Perhaps the answer is to move the under utilised bike rac...
