Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
The summer domestic building programme has begun
Skip trucks. Lots of them.
RC57 TON - Reston Waste Management around 7:30 this morning. I called them up and the first thing they they tried was the old "he needs to use that road to access another". Don't stand for that.
PZ GBN - East London Waste Management, although the GBN means it's an old GBN Services truck. This was about 7:45 and I was on my bike and caught him coming across from West Green Rd past the Queen's Head. He just went around me and straight up Lausanne Rd.

Dear SNT,
I swear, I am going to take a f'ing cricket bat to the headlights of one of these guys one morning. Please either do something about it or arrest me before I take the law into my own hands. You know where I live.

Effingham Rd, the tradesmen's entrance to Crouch End, believe me John it's not just your road it's many roads on the ladder.
I find it hugely difficult to film or photograph any culprits but there are hundreds every week, maybe something a bit more organised is required, what do you think? Maybe we could set up a YouTube channel and email all the companies/parties involved as well as sending them to the police?
Ideas over a beer sometime?

Yes, I do see them going down Effingham in the mornings too, that's if they're heading south I suspect.
The thing I don't like about these ideas Birdy is that they would not take sitting down over a beer sometime to discuss.
I am going to start taking mornings off work to film them. If we do the same roads at the same time with our fabulous youtube uploading devices we might start to make a dent.
After the depressing job of handing out leaflets at Turnpike Lane on Tuesday morning my mojo was restored when returning home I managed to stand in the middle of the entrance to my road and wave off an O'Donovan's skip truck. Shame I didn't have my f'ing cricket bat.

No there heading west then north, coming from St Anns Road, round the one way, up Effo then right on to Wightman.
You chose to hand out leaflets, I use to do that every Saturday! It does take time and thoughts to organise although sitting outside for a whole morning is very depressing, I sat in my van last week for an hour and got one photo!

Right, we tend to get the stuff coming off of West Green Rd.

The reason this needs to be organised, see below to see why, one skip lorry and one car going the wrong way. Using iphones aren't good enough and fumbling around when you hear a lorry doesn't give you enough time:

Let me know if I can do anything to help, we get them here too, and my whole house shakes when they fly over the speed hump outside.
