I had a really nasty experience on Rye Lane today where a deranged screaming mad men (drugged up, I presume) nearly ran me over, then slammed out his car, cornered me and then followed me on foot down Rye Lane, screaming as he went. Pretty scary.

I wanted to thank the group of people - both commuters heading to the ED bus stop, and the Peckham locals, who stood up for me and in some cases, risked danger by putting themselves physically between the mad man and myself.

I fled as soon as his attention was diverted, so didn't get the chance to thank those people. It's really heartening to know there are good people out there, willing to help a stranger.

This is on the off-chance any of them read the forum!

- Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

  Hello all, Please excuse me/feel free to remove the comment if this isn’t the appropriate place for it. I am an East Dulwich resident writing a story for the South East Londoner (https://www.selondoner.co.uk) about the problems patients are facing with the service at Tessa Jowell GP Surgery and the Health Centre. I would like to speak with people currently or formerly registered with the practice to learn more about their experiences. This story won’t seek to single out or ‘have a go’ at individuals – by most accounts the quality of care for those who do get an appointment is good – but will look at the quality of service and why it seems to be worsening. If you would like to speak to me, you can email [email protected] and we can arrange an interview. If you’d like to check who I am first, my editor Tom Holmes can be reached at [email protected] I will also post this on the East Dulwich Forum Facebook group. Thank you, Harry Hetherington

  Whoever owns it obviously doesn't need the rent.

  I agree with Head Nun. My experience is very similar and has been so for the 25 years I've lived in London. They got a lot worse after the Tour de France came here though. And then the Olympics.
