Right. You'd best all sit down – it's an Elfinsafety rant. Get the kettle on.

you were on a bike and couldn’t ride 4 miles to use a bridge for free?, rule 5 applies here
rule 5)HTFU

you really shouldn’t let trivial shit like this get to you
just steal £3.20 of food from the Tescos when you’re next in
ups and downs, swings and roundabouts

Yes it is a bit rubbish, but why are you going sarf of the river in the first place?

It’s a very, very good point actually. I have chastised myself for such folly.

G8 is a one-off thing though, this has been planned for years and has been going on for some months already.

you were on a bike and couldn’t ride 4 miles to use a bridge for free?

Would’ve been an additional 7-8 miles or so. I was already tired. Besides, you’re missing the point of the rant; IT’S A PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY. I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO PAY MONEY TO USE AN ALTERNATIVE.

Come on. I know it’s Friday night, and everyone’s a bit tired and that, but use yer nod, eh? 🙄

Bakes; excellent suggestion. I may just do that.

Higgo; do you need a poo or something? You look a bit bunged up. Must be very uncomfortable. 🙁

omlg……. must remember not to read threads started by elfin, must remember not to read threads started by elfin…

oh **** I’ll probably forget or look to see if I have been abused….

Oooh, get you girlfriend.

Effinchafing,calm down will you!? Have a beer. And dont hit the little one…I’m keeping an eye on you.

DD; if I had a cat, I’d kick it. It’s just as well I don’t have a cat.

Calm down? CALM DOWN???

It’s cost me three pounds twenty. And you expect me to be calm??? 😯

Mmm… Beer…….

Would’ve been an additional 7-8 miles or so. I was already tired.

7-8 miles, how terrible in that pan flat London riding on tarmac, i can see how that must be a terrible thing to face 🙄

Besides, you’re missing the point of the rant; IT’S A PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY. I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO PAY MONEY TO USE AN ALTERNATIVE.

the alternative was free, ride yer flippin bike!

I’ll GIVE you three pounds twenty if you’ll shut up!

And I like your current persona – it makes a change from the previous ones!

Funny, how a rant about a local authority being shit at providing an alternative to a ROW brings out all the boring predictable crap from the usual suspects. Get a life, eh?… 🙄

RD; why not go out and do those 7-8 miles for me eh? Seeing as how your so manly and butch. There’s a good chap, thanks.

brings out all the boring predictable knobs…

Someone called? 🙂

And stop f***ing editing your posts.

I knew id be back. sits backs to see if any more insults come in….

Oh they will, they will. My fans can’t resist.. 😉

8 road miles is manly and butch to you?, i’d stick to the ferry mate, sounds like you need the nice sit down 😐

brings out all the boring predictable crap from the usual suspects. Get a life, eh

you do read your own posts then

Too easy RD; just too easy…

8 road miles is manly and butch to you?

Yes.

Next question.

you do read your own posts then

More interesting than reading yours, tbh. Sorry, but you did ask.

Foot tunnel update

Woolwich tunnel closure

Updated 8 October 2010:

Due to health and safety reasons, Woolwich Foot Tunnel has been closed to public use. It will remain closed for at least another week while supports are being added, as refurbishment works have revealed structural weaknesses that make the stairs and lifts unsafe for use.

There will be no public access to the tunnel at any time. Greenwich Council is working hard to rectify this situation. While we carry out essential repairs, pedestrians and cyclists wishing to cross the river can use the Woolwich ferry during the day.[/url]

Bullshit, as the sign on the tunnel gate clearly said that the lift was broken. They can’t even get their story straight!

So, no alternative provided at all to the RoW. Contrary to Greenwich Council’s legal obligations. The Woolwich Ferry is in another borough, and therefore nowt to do with Greenwich Council. IE, they’ve failed to provide a reasonable alternative. Plus, there isn’t a 24 hour service on the Woolwich Ferry.

Rubbish. 🙁

That Lahnden is a bag o’ **** shocker.

Someone is going to pay for this

they did and they will, £3.20 for the joys of living in London. You can get the ferry from North Ronaldsay to Papa Westray for that and not have to listen to some whinging attention whore. **** me, and people wonder why the Northerners think the Southerners are soft, whinging fairies

That Lahnden is a bag o’ **** shocker.

I beg to differ, it’s just the whining fairies that live there that give the place a bad name

LycraLout; I’m out of signed posters; will a beermat do you? Who shall I make it out to?

I don’t live in London, my give-o-shit meter is barely registering this.

Beermat for you too nickc? 😀

my give-o-shit meter is barely registering this.

But enough to post that though eh? 😆

I can see the local authority should have made provisions, but didn’t you say they have been planning the work for years? Plenty of time to stock the piggy bank up for the ferry man or get fit for a whopping 8 road miles. My old man used to cycle 17 miles to work and back everyday, he was a manual worker and managed that at 65 I think 8 road miles ain’t going to kill you. Just get on with it.

Id wager a bet of £3.20 that Elfinfredpaddedbradibhah will be banned (again) in the not too distant future….. 🙄

I thought this was a health and safety rant, but there appears to be neither. 0/10

That said, as someone who has recently seen the light after 10 years in London, I can agree with you that it’s a **** disgrace, and I’m not surprised it nearly kicked off on the ferry. It’s a shame it actually didn’t, as someone somewhere might have woken up to the fact that it’s not on.
Letter to Greenwich council, first thing in the morning. And have you considered writing a letter to His Holiness Bojo? Might be worth a shot, anyway.

8 miles is an extra 30 minutes or so on your commute, if you’re riding for fitness fine, but if you’re just riding to get home, that’s a fookin pain in the arse… plus it puts you on some fairly shit roads and increases your chances of a traffic altercation… people use the foot tunnels to avoid the traffic…

Serial nonsense poster has to pay a private company the going rate because he’s so feeble he can’t cycle 8 little miles, shocker…

Psychle, applying that logic the ferry could sink, the foot tunnels could collapse… Best stay at home.

Mr Woppit I think youve wrapped it up nicely and hit the nail on the head.

Sounds like Woppit is talking about himself TBH….. 🙂

Elfinsafety’s mockney grammar just doesn’t add up to me?

Ok, for the knobs

Freddedpadbra got his kickers in a twist and being offensive again?

Well I never….

I would be a smidge miffed at that too.
Yes 8 miles isnt a lot ,but if you want to get home after a long day sometimes that extra distance takes the fun out. I would have a word with the council myself.

Ha ha!

I meant this as a tongue-in-cheek pop at a local authority’s incompetency, whilst also possibly stimulating some discussion about Rights of Way/Access that sort of thing. You know, the sort of thing people on here grumble about quite a lot. Thought others might have added some of their own similar experiences.

Instead, several miserable twonks have decided that they’d like to express their dislike of me with snidey rude comments. Nice. How very grown up and intelligent. Nor surprise to see some of the usual suspects too. Of course, none of those have ever met me, so obviously are in the perfect position to judge. Oh yes.

Seriously people, get a life. Either ignore it completely, or add something positive. As for me being an ‘attention seeker; what are you doing on an internet forum?? 😆

At least I try to bring a bit of interest and fun to this forum. What do you bring? Nowt but bitching and sniping at others.

Water off a duck’s back for me. I’ve obviously got the attention I crave so badly, so thanks for that. 😉

Anyone who wishes to contribute with any accounts of crap local authorities and RoWs, feel free.

After all that…………… you are now duty bound to put in a claim for £3.20 to Greenwich Council and take them to court if they fail to pay up.
Report back to us when you have truly triumphed over this evil oppressor.

Nice bike and outfit, Steve. Getting ready for 2012 then? 😆
