@elliereeves Thank you very much, I’ve emailed you the details 👍🙏🏻

@elliereeves Who would I contact to report a caravan that has been dumped at the top of Queensthorpe Road in Sydenham? Looks like it’s full of old wood & rubbish…Another in Bishopsthorpe has been there for ages, probably the same culprits.
Can this be looked into?

@benjaminbutter @TfL Come to Sydenham in South East London. They push through the barriers one after another. The TFL guy just watches. I did ask him why does he not do something and he told me that he is not allowed to.
What a completely ridiculous state of affairs.

@CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @SydenhamSociety @sydenhamtown @Sydenhamphotos @SydArts_ @Jack_Lavery @SydenhamSchool @MPSSydenham @NewsShopper So much so that my wife will now not walk back from the station in the evening on her own after being accosted by a beggar screaming at her after she refused to buy him ‘a pack of 20 cigarettes’. I know we’re not alone here in inner London but something needs to be done soon.

@CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @SydenhamSociety @sydenhamtown @Sydenhamphotos @SydArts_ @Jack_Lavery @SydenhamSchool @MPSSydenham @NewsShopper We’ve seen a gradual decline in the High Street over the last 10yrs. Sydenham has so much going for it….the transport links, walking distance to award winning parks etc but the increase in rough sleepers/beggars and anti social behaviour has really been a problem here.

@CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @SydenhamSociety @sydenhamtown @Sydenhamphotos @SydArts_ @Jack_Lavery @SydenhamSchool @MPSSydenham @NewsShopper Spoke too soon, more ‘rooms for rent’ posters are stuck up plus someone’s graffitied on the side of the shelter…….what a shame

@MartinSLewis I’ve been thinking about changing my Santander 123 account to their Edge account to take advantage of Annual Travel Insurance, Breakdown cover etc. The travel insurance is supplied by ‘Chubb’ who get absolutely slated by reviews. Can you check and comment on this please?

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@ChrisBestUK I see we now have a tent pitched outside the Post Office on Sydenham High Street for the last few days as a rough sleeping area. Is this something the council should be aware of, is it permitted?

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@MartinSLewis
Martin, can you advise if I initiated a pension transfer from Prudential to Vanguard on a certain date for the process to start, if the transfer value is calculated on that initial date or when the investments are actually sold?

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@lindzo121 @CPFCHQ Exactly…….totally correct👍

@ChrisBestUK @Cmnplace “We want you to help us create streets that meet your needs and make your neighbourhood greener, safer, and more enjoyable places to live and work”

How about addressing the issue in Sydenham with alcoholics spitting & swearing at residents, begging for money for alcohol?

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@Jack_Lavery @CllrCurran @ChrisBestUK @lewishamlabour Such a shame the high street is now the home of drunk rough sleepers. What has happened to Sydenham over the last couple of years?

@CoopersLaneSch Have a great day in the sunshine at Broadstairs you lovely lovely lot 😎☀️❤️

@CPFC I’m currently wandering down one of the more remote areas of the Nile and was confronted by an old Egyptian man wearing a Mo Salah shirt. He informed me that he knows all the big English teams: Liverpool, Man City/United, Arsenal and Crystal Palace!!! We’ve arrived, big time!!

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@SwarezArt Amazing how you’ve transformed that space from what you inherited…….I was going to say ‘good luck’ in your new premises, but I don’t think you need it!👍

[The Spike @spikechalmers]

@MartinSLewis Martin, I have a 1yr cash ISA with Virgin money taken out in Feb of this year paying around 3.7% interest. My wife has a cash ISA taken out in May with Marcus paying 4.3%. Can we each transfer these to higher interest accounts even though we haven’t had them long?

@KingGeorge2200 As a couple of UK ‘seniors’ we discovered Australian Survivor recently and binged watched all the seasons!
How you didn’t win the Hero’s V Viliains is beyond us, absolutely robbed!!!!!

@ECRCARCOM ECR, I’ve emailed you countless times about being overcharged at Orlando airport and Dollar telling me that your ‘no excess’ insurance isn’t valid? Such a stressful experience. How can it take you 11 weeks to look into this, why don’t you respond to my emails?
