I've tried this a few times. Along the lines of "Oi, what's that noise?" When it works the thanks come tumbling out from the distressed parent. When it doesn't, you get some very odd looks and a few people tapping in 999 on their phone. Not sure I'd advise it.

I wish everyone was like you.....it's infuriating that despite some parents' scream threshold being high, they don't consider that other people's might not be.


I am not exaggerating when I say that there was a non-stop background scream for the hour i was in there on saturday.

    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
