Tesco blocks ambulance
I am actually witnessing this as I type. Along St Margarets Road, there are three lorries, two of them Tesco, one Oddbins, and a large 4 x 4 parked on the double Yellow – One of the Tesco lorries is up by Around The World. I'm on a bus, and there's an ambulance trying to get through. The lorries have used up so much road, there are no passing spaces left. The result is that the bus is trying to get up onto the kerb, to allow the ambulance through. 0 replies

"Nice" to know you're not alone.... Anyone else out there with more photos? I know several TV companies have programmes in the pipeline on this at the mo, so the more info we've got, the merrier! > From: awalden@##### > To: nhcannings > Subject: Tescos 0 replies

Apparently, Tesco's take on the parking issue is that their agreement only extends to lorries with "Tesco" on the side. Which leads to this from a few days ago... 0 replies

RE: bus stop = tesco loading bay
Fortunately, perhaps, I was out with my camera phone yesterday, and got some pictures of this - In fact, I have a whole load of pictures of illegal parking and illegal loading (out of hours, or on the double yellows or in the bus lane), and Simon's email spurred me to post them online - If you really think the problem was solved by sending a few traffic wardens in in the morning for a few weeks, take a look at http://mailspaces. 1 reply
How should we solve the Tesco problem?
Unless the Council and Tesco takes drastic action, it is difficult to see an end to the Tesco loading/parking issue - If you could implement just one solution, what would you do. 1 reply

An accident waiting to happen, happened
I made myself somewhat unpopular when I suggested to the Council that they get a licence to use the CCTV camera at the station for parking enforcement way back when.
Superdragged into the fray
Well, I have to say I have surprised myself this time. I sent Superdrug a long letter the other day with a load of photos of what their lorries were up to, and got a near...

Less cross
Hurrah! TfL has confirmed a full review of the crossings at the A316/St Margarets Road junction - Perhaps they might even deign to talk to us, but I shan't hold my breath...
Still cross
The crossing situation is getting no better. I am pleased to say that one of my neighbours has reported a car that sped through the lights to the police.

Get a life, Nigel!
It's a comment that I have heard increasingly the older I have become. Is it just me, or has the world just become a more irritating place to live in?
Small world
These parking tickets are getting everywhere. I went to a show yesterday, and met someone who lives in St Margarets who, guess what, just got a parking ticket through the post!
