Police cordoned off the end of Downsell Road, a residential street lined with
two-storey terraced houses.
Residents returning home from work were surprised to find their street had
become a crime scene.
They said the area was usually quite safe and nothing like this had happened in
the recent...
Perhaps we cold have a full on display -- paid for by HM Government, as a way of saying "sorry" for ballsing up the original decision letter.
Copy that letter into the Defence Secretary, and the head of the Armed Forces, Sir Jock Stirrup.
Four people were arrested after a 20-year-old man was fatally stabbed in east
London, Scotland Yard said tonight.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "We were called by the London Ambulance
Service at 5.25pm this evening to Downsell Road E15 following reports of a man
suffering a stab wound...
I suppose we're NEVER going to see eye to eye on this one.
For me -- big increase in cycling means fewer cars on the roads (meaning less congestion and fewer accidents), and fewer people squashed up against your armpit, possibly rubbing against you in a pervy way, on the Northern Line.
For you...
Ah!
I see! You did write: "BBC On The Fiddle! Dirty f***ing etc etc"
Perhaps I'm feeling a bit sensitive after all that Blue Peter cat-naming hoohah. Sorry.
Is the number of cyclists in one street in the largest city in Europe, for a short period, on one evening of the year, representative of "most of them"?
No, no it isn't.
Watch this before it gets taken down. It's the former Labour MP, for Peterborough, Helen Clark (also known as Helen Brinton before she married Meridian's political editor Alan Clark), having a boozed-up sweary argument at a hotel worker. No, she's not especially notable, but it's good anyway...
I don't think that's the AVERAGE cyclist. That's just the aggressive, pushy ones you see from time to time. When I'm on a bike, of course I am concerned with getting from A to B as quickly as possible. But I'm also concerned with not sitting behind a bus inhaling its exhaust fumes, and not...
The police are, of course, allowed to dish out on the spot fines for doing stuff like that.
But yes, I think pedestrian lanes are deffo the way forward.
All the bike-heads at work told me this when I first got mine, and indeed it's where I went. However, I've been back twice with various problems that should have been picked up in the free first service. And they frankly don't seem that bothered with me, as I'm not buying one of their hugely...
I went to Portobello Market in west London last autumn and bought a second-hand Ralph Lauren coat for £100 ("Only used for photoshoots, guv"). I was subsequently told by someone who works in the clothes trade that this coat retails at about £1,000.
I would advise a look round similar...
