I reported a clear case of drug dealing on the police website (no answer from the phones) Detailing location, time plus photo of the car and registration. Never heard a thing.

The moral of this whole tale is ?crime does pay? The police are not interested in crime as they are unable to cope do so it seems Criminals have a free hand. Consequently insurers will take your money But in many (most) cases will not pay out. It seems outrageous when a bit of investigation could resolve things but It wont happen.

Nothing will happen re the police

Was the driver in the van? A - knock on door and ask them to turn off the engine B - take photo of vehicle and call the southwark number that no one answers C - send photo of vehicle etc to southwark They (southwark) are spending loads in banners near schools asking drivers to turn off idling Engines

Yes have the police back that your lot took away

the problem is having to leave the door unbolted until the early hours for the youngsters to get back in after their shenanigans..... will just have to chubb it as well.. really thinking about getting one of those ring door bells tho.

Yes - great that so many historically ?no-go? secondary schools are now Oversubscribed and thriving. My two attended kingsdale and flourished there. Now there are the harris schools, deptford green, elm green as well as the Historically popular haberdashers and charter.

Do not do it!!

Have you checked local houses for cctv? Lots of people have those cctv doorbells nowadays? Best of lucj

Yes mine went to fhs6 and was very happy there

Well said!!

My children did not go to charter sixth form ( my boy has just finished his A'levels) but I know plenty who attended the sixth form who had not previously been at the school. The picture I get is of a resounding thumbs up both academically and socially. very best of luck

JohnL I think they have decided not to change the name - they are keeping 'the palmerston' and making out it has just closed for a refurb and is open again 'under new management' which is a polite way of saying they turfed out a business and are riding on their success.

yes I saw that too! they have not changed the name so as you say, they are riding on the coattails of the ousted business def not visiting...

well the wording on their poster is somewhat questionable - it suggests the pub is closing for a refurb and then reopening - not a new business altogether opening on that site..

Its all ok! The posters in the window say The palmerston is only closed for a refurb and is reopening At the end of june! No mention of the spotty pig at all - hirrah!!

So no one gives a toss about people investing, grafting and building a reputation in a non trendy area??the lack Of loyalty here is mind boggling. This is my ?beef? Large chain behaving badly? Sometimes they need to know it is not ok The poor new manager is not responsible but he needs to-be in a position to feed back to the money boys That the grockels have an opinion.

It's the principal.... local business grafted to build up a gastropub before Lordship lane was a 'destination' not everyone's cup of tea but something different at the time. Having built up a good business and reputation - rug pulled from underthem so that the brewery can ride the wave of their success with a 'chain' which supposedly gives the locals a pub after a business has been failing there. so much that is not right about this whole business. Also suspect the Palmerston have been very diplomatic in not reporting the shenanigans that have been going on with the dealings with Enterprise....

shame a small local business has been shut down in favour of a themed chain. they won't be getting my business

Outrageous

Ikea - lasted years - we when we did our kitchen extension in our previous house the builders were able to dismantle them and re assemble as part of the new kitchen, adding the new doors. I understand they have changed the sizing now so we prob cannot do that again. The carcasses have been very robust. probably not high end enough for alot of folk but done us ok. love to know what you ended up with!!!
