  1. Hi,


    Just wanted to put up a quick recommendation for Chris and his team who recently refurbished our bathroom. They were really efficient, friendly and did an excellent job that we have been really please with. They went the extra mile to make sure that we were completely happy with everything.


    We left the guys to do the jobwhilst we were on holiday and were really impressed with how Chris kept in touch whilst we were away, updating us with daily pictures and a call to keep us in the loop.


    The team did everything from tiling,plastering and rendering, electrics, plumbing, sourcing a new bath and hanging new wooden doors. All to a really high standard.


    thoroughly happy and would recommend to anyone.

    Chris's number is 07590764715

  2. Unproven claims??? Where is your proof then that this will not have an impact on local crime?? You say there is no proof, but what more proof do you want than the fact that these kids have already commited crime and that the rates of reoffending for someone who has already been convicted are increased because of it. How is that not evidence. What evidence do you have to support your own argument. How can you garuntee me and others that there will not be an increase in local crime? convince me of that as you purport to be able to and I will agree with you, until then, dont shove your moral prowess down my neck.


    You dont challenge DJ you dictate your opinions as the right ones, and then cannot accept it when someones opinions differ from yours. You contradict yourself and do not back up your own arguments. Its just a shame because some of the points you raise sometimes are perfectly valid, but there is absolutely no point in discussing them because you always have to be right, even when your not.

  3. Look DJ, I did read everything you said, if I missed something, perhaps it is the way you write and the lack of clarity than me not reading your post. It is pointless having any kind of discussion with you, you just speak hot air. You say in one breath that these teenage burglars do not go out of their way to burgle leafy areas, well this isn't going out of their way is it if this unit goes ahead, in fact ED will be very much in their way.


    You change your points to suit your argument, one minute you are saying that they are responsible for anything from low level vandalism through to burglary, now you say they only low level criminals or vandals. Which is it then? Make up your mind.


    I am quite entitled to voice my opinion, like I said it is an opinion and I am not naive enough to realise that this unit has to go somewhere, and ED is as good a place as any, but it doesn't mean I have to like it.


    You seem to have an issue with the Harris academy when it suits you, and then when it sits your argument you don't, it just goes to show how fickle and weak some of your arguments are. You will use anything just to argue that black is white.


    It is so annoying sometimes DJ that you feel the need to twist words and points to suit your own agenda and support your own argument. I have no interest in continuing this discussion with you, because you are so arrogant and ignorant that you will never accept that some peoples views are different from your own. I have said that my views will not necessarily be right or that you will agree with them, but they are my opinion which I am entitled to have. What gives you the right all of the time to think that your are correct in everything you say. Its boring

  4. DJ you really would argue that black is white wouldnt you, just for the sake of teh argument.


    You just said it yourself, burglars on teh whole are opportunists, so why would we want to give them the opportunity by bringing them down to ED and giving them the opportunity to be opportunists in what is a relatively affluent neighbourhood, rich pickings. To be honest where the current unit is located is hardly comparable to ED in terms of opportunity now is it. Burgling one house in ED is going to be pretty profitable on average as opposed to where the current unit is based. And yes given recent events frankly I dont want my wife walking the streets with my daughter in the day with those type of criminals in the area.

  5. Fair enough DJ I can see your point, but no one can honestly say to me that they arent in the slightest bit disturbed at the prospect of having the majority of Southwarks convicted burglars ( alot of who are reoffenders) travelling into an area of East Dulwich where there is opportunity all around. Its like putting a jar of sweets in front of a child and saying dont eat any of them. Please dont twist the words, I fully appreciate that this thing has to go somewhere, but you cant ask or expect me to be happy about the prospect, that the very guys who potentially burgle me one day, could be 200 metres down the road the next signing with the probation team.
  6. Some people love to argue for the sake of arguing.


    Of course no one want this here, no one wants it anywhere, whether it be in Peckham, Bermondsey, Camberwell or the Castle, so why argue the point that your fine with it, its pathetic, arguing for the sake of arguing. The fact is it has to go somewhere, and some area is going to have it forced upon them. No one in their right mind can honestly say that they are alright with the prospect of some of Southwarks biggest criminals travelling down to ED on a daily basis and walking around, people in the Castle would feel exactly the same.

    Im sorry but the police can do no right in the eyes of the public- if they use force they are being to heavy handed, if they dont then they are being to soft. Lets be fair to them they do a bloody good job with limited resources, there is no wide sopread corruption in the police force like in other countries, they are well run and take a lot of crap. They are one of those institutions where their failures and front page news but their successes are rarely reported.


    The stop and search practice that tehy use works, its sad, but it does. And if any one of us was in their position you would be stopping and searching the same people with the same profile. It is very sad but unfortunately true.


    Yes there have been issues concerning the police eg the phone hacking, teh death of the Millwall fan during the G20 etc etc, but im sorry the guys who have been out on our streets working to restore order and safety deerve a lot more respect.

  8. Just an idea, but after being around last night and seeing the positive attitud of everyone down Lordship Lane, maybe it would be a good idea for everyone to get together and show their support for local businesses and the community by getting out and filling the pubs and restaurants in the area tonight.

    Just to start making everyone feel safe again and show that we wont be forced to stay in our houses any more. We could get some kind of street party atmosphere going down Lorship Lane to relieve some of the tension that has been around the past couple of nights....
