Where can I get visitor parking permits in Lambeth, is there an office where I can go in and just buy them?

Foxton's negotiator speeeeding down Railton Road this morning; which is a terrible street since the traffic calming measures.
If you're going to speed, doing it in a branded mini isn't the brightest thing is it?
But yes, beautiful moon and Mars (?) above it last night.

Yep. The customer service centre by Olive Morris House on Brixton Hill. Bear in mind you need ID to prove your address etc etc.
If you're not in a hurry to get them you can now do it online. However, I made that mistake and had to go and buy some anyway cos they didn't turn up in time (after a week!)

You can't for parking permits now as they're trying to get you to do it online. However you can turn up and wait.

tbh it's luck of the draw. I've been there a couple of times in the past couple of months and had waits of 10 minutes and well over an hour at either extreme

Tick tock.
Entire empires have risen and fallen into forgotten dust in the time I've spent waiting in that place.
Good luck.

Roadsafe? Not yet - but should do - couldn't find a twitter feed as I assume it would be filled with Anti Fat Tie Bile.

Brilliant. The address I need the permits for is not on their database. "Let us know and someone will get back to you in 7 days".

There was an interesting project going on at the (ahem) 'Impact Hub' on Saturday.

I'm getting reports that the moon has turned red over New York. In a few hours we will get visual confirmation over Brixton. Unfortunately i will not be here to see it as i will be in Whitstable for the rest of the week, a much deserved holiday. If they have the internet there i will post my moonshot.

through your front window...I have been trying to get veolia to deliver recycling sacks since January- out of stock in the library, filled in webform three times, no sacks.
So I stuck in a formal complaint.
I now have seven rolls

I have seen your moonshot on another thread and I am still recovering from the shock.

I requested a roll of recycling sacks through the official Lambeth Council website, and they delivered it within 3 or 4 days. Not bad.I have been trying to get veolia to deliver recycling sacks since January- out of stock in the library, filled in webform three times, no sacks.

I have heard that the parking tickets issued on private property (council estates, for example) are pretty much legally unenforceable? Clamping and/or towing is illegal and for the ticket to be enforced it has to be proven that a 'contract' has been broken. There may be some possible risk for council tenants and leaseholders parking on their own estate without a valid permit but it will depend on the wording of their tenancy agreement or lease.
I'm not 100% on this so has anyone else heard anything?

It won't really be visible in the UK unfortunately, as it occurs just after the moon has set. May be possible to see the very first stages of it as the moon disappears below the horizon around 6am though.
