Idle chit chat about Surbiton

Surbiton Station Mini Cabs

12 years ago...

Does anyone know who to complain to about the company? I live next to them and with them working 24 hours they make so much noise, you call them and they laugh down the phone when you ask them to keep the noise down.
I don't even want to know what germs are floating around the back of the station, I've seen them using it instead of going in to the bathroom.
Is it the council who gives them the 24 hour licence?

Hi all,
Does anyone know anything about the history of Victoria Park?

How is Bramshott Court

Hi

I am planning to buy a flat in Bramshott Court on South Bank near the station. How is that block in terms of security, neighbourhood and other issues?

Many Thanks!

Urgent: Parking permit in South Bank zone

12 years ago...

Hi,

I am planning to buy a flat on South Bank road near the station. Would anyone know if there are any restrictions on receiving new parking permits on that street due to any reasons? The property does not have an allocated parking and I am basing my decision on that there is permit parking on the street.

Many Thanks!

Claremont Rd 'dump'

12 years ago...

Do you think it will be ok for me to dump my bags of rubbish alongside the perennial pile that is ALWAYS outside Gardenia?
It'll save me a trip to the Villiers Rd. dump I guess!

If pavement boards have been decreed an eyesore/health & safety hazard, then surely bags of rubbish ought to fall within the council 'crack down' from a couple of years ago?

Surbiton Book Club - Part Three

12 years ago...

Hello everyone.

There has been a thread running for around a year new about a book club in Surbiton. It would seem that it is all full now, so I thought I would set up a new one, as there has been some more interest recently.

If you are interested in joining a monthly book club, where we will meet in Surbiton (first week of the month sound good), then please let me know.

Thanks.

Ducane Dry Cleaners: Problems

12 years ago...

Has anybody else experienced problems with Ducane? I've been there fewer than ten times but they have managed to lose two of my garments, the first was eventually found. This time, Ducane have mislaid a £400 suit. Despite promising to call me back with news of its whereabouts, they have not done so. Wonder whether this is a common experience?

Headmasters Victoria Road Staff?

12 years ago...

I have never seen a hairdressers touting customers like Headmasters. There are always always one or two scary looking chavvy members of staff standing outside, hair always in rainbow colours within an inch of its life, selling cakes or giving out cut price tickets, or just standing there looking tarty. Don't they have work to do inside the salon? Onviously they don't have many customers, I think these girls would scare any potential trade away ! If their reputation and quality of work was of a good standard, surely they would not have to hover at the doorway all the time.

Glenbuck Road - dodgy?

12 years ago...

Hi all,

My first post on this forum! :)

I am looking for a place in Surbiton and would just like to kindly ask of your thoughts of the back of Surbiton station.

What is the area like nowadays? Glenbuck Court doesn't look great but we are looking at flats around the Lyme Court/Warpole Road part, this part however looks nice?! I can't establish whether Glenbuck Road is dodgy or not!

Your comments are most welcome!

Cheers

wildlife - birds

I've just seen a red kite (the bird that is) above Southborough School playing fields and drifting over my garden - it's the first time I've seen one around here - how about anyone else?
