You'd better call the rozzers back and tell them to stop thinking about taking a bus from camberwell to east dulwich next week in order to prevent and detect crime. Or maybe they won't bother anyway. However, what if the crims are getting smart and now carry blue spray paint for arrows as a ruse . . . ?
  2. Come on local Cllrs ACT TODAY to stop the wanton destruction of our flora and fauna for private greed and profit. Stop the butchers now.
  3. Not another eaterie! How much can the middle classes and their sprogs gorge?
  4. Thanks for the tip. If you haven't already contacted police on 101, would you do that as there are vulnerable pensioners out there who may be conned by this person.
  5. Police are sh*t scared in peckham. Plain and simple and uncomfortable fact. Amazing you saw that DJKQ, you may have missed it if the chap with a bat had been carrying a fox :-D
  6. Means that anything said/divulged cannot be used in court, or other formal proceeding after.
  7. So, to recap - very suspicious behaviour rightfully reported. Violent crimes in the same area by someone matching the description. Still no police action! Maybe they are travelling from camberwell?! Or maybe they don't give a stuff, and we're all on our own. Be careful out there, people, no one to help.
  8. Vet would be a waste of time-they don't care about animals unless they get paid a fortune. Vetinery medicine is no longer a vocation, just a money maker. Poor cub.
  9. Thanks for giving the advice. May I ask what the Police response was to the information that was provided?
  10. Doh. Stay at home, and get the kids taken out for the day.

What is the name of the fungus? Just because some trees are removed nearby what evidence is there that says other trees now won't be able to withstand new wind loading? If the un-named fungus is so deadly and rife, one would presume that all remnants of the trees have been removed and not left to decay on the ground?
  12. Issues were hardly aired! That behaviour glorified and relished in detail I'd say.

Too much. - - - - - - - - Did you see yesterdays headlines - 1 in 3 women worldwide have been subject to sexual violence/violence? Keep enjoying the programme because it's "make believe", and it definately won't influence any potential nutters, nor condone, reinforce or normalise such behaviours . .
  14. Run an electrical extension cable to your garden shed. Job done.
