23 April 2024 @ 8:12 am
Canada differs from the UK in many ways: obviously it’s vastly bigger, extending across many more latitudes; its climate, nature and terrains vary hugely; its cities are more dispersed and diverse — and accordingly, the challenges the two countries face around tackling the climate emergency are different, too. But there are some significant ways in…

What caused this, which groups have been removed, and what happens next? Tl;dr: we’ve published the changes as a…

Architectural Lighting on the railway arches shines up into the flats above all night long., 25th April
25 April 2024 @ 9:39 pm

Damaged wayfinding fingerpost, 25th April
25 April 2024 @ 8:34 pm
There is a damaged directional fingerpost here (on pavement - outlined in photo), it’s falling apart and in a state of disrepair, the posts are all facing the wrong direction, some are missing. Tourists often stand here looking at it confused. I have reported this umpteen times but nothing is ever done to fix this. Why? PLEASE can someone investigate and get this sign fixed once and for all. I look forward to your response.
