19 March (Part 1) - Update on Carole’s struggle to get her children to school
This week has gone quite well because the B11 bus drivers have been helpful,
friendly even on a couple of occasions. One even waited a few seconds when
Carole found herself short of the bus stop and unable to run. The word may be spreading.
Councillor Fuller emailed a two line report including that he “had a meeting with
the Bexley borough’s representative on the London Assembly and have forwarded your
email re the events on the local buses and how TFL have not replied to you”.
That’s James Cleverly I presume so that means the problem has now got back to
the stage it should have reached more than a month ago when a complaint was
misdirected to Greenwich’s representative.
Has there been any attempt to improve things closer to home, like the unhelpful
attitude of the school or an approach to councillor Davey the school governor?
If there has been nothing has been said. Maybe next time? And maybe that email
will address Carole by her real name and not somebody else’s. (There’s a bit of a
trap there because by agreement I’m not using her real name either!)

Speaking of updates, Jo, who reported Craske’s
ridiculous ticketing operation down at Blackfen
five months ago, has told me that she has finally beaten Bexley
council into submission and it has agreed she committed no offence. Will they now
be going back over their records to refund all the other motorists wrongly
penalised?
