    Film crews who for some bizarre reason are allowed to close roads and shut loads of parking bays, as they did in Blackheath Village today, causing utter chaos. Why is it that these jumped up luvvies are allowed to do this? One security bloke tried to stop me driving down a road that had nothing in it except for about 50 parking bays that were sealed off, what is this all about?

    Because they pay to do so, and it promotes the local area. I enjoy watching films and TV as do millions and millions of others, so it's a necessary inconvenience in my eyes.

    Here's a link for more info:

  • Able bodied people (often fat) who think that carrying a single walking stick in public entitles them to claim disability benefit instead of getting off their lazy backsides and working for a living. Numbers seem to be on the increase and examples can be found in their main habitats, the local Witherspoons or The Jeremy Kyle Show.

    So does that money go to the local businesses who lost income because people couldn't park?
    I was trying to get to the picture framers but was unable to, i have now taken my business elsewhere. Is that promoting the local area?
    So the council benefitted but everyone else, including local businesses, have to suffer in lost income and/or inconvenience because of the traffic chaos it caused?
    If I tried to pay to get a road closed or parking bays shut I would be told to do one, why should they be any different?

    Nothing like lobbing a potential grenade into a thread on a quiet Wednesday night on CL.

    Well, as you have your arguing head on, you could answer the bit about people enjoying films and TV. Also the money to the council may help keep down the business rates, so local shops may benefit. People might see Blackheath on a film and decide to visit and have a meal, or a drink. Might not rush there to get a picture framed, I grant you. Sometimes you have to look at the bigger picture...

    Sometimes I just want to put the bigger picture in a frame though.

    'My arguing head'?! Just because I had the temerity to disagree with you? Well I am very sorry, I am obviously not allowed to have an opinion, I will bow down to your superior views in future and stay quiet.
