Actually it isnt a 'rumour' thanks, my housemate showed me the bottle and i saw it for myself, it was clearly labelled as 'room fragrance' or something similar. You may remember that for a while it was very difficult to get hold of hand sanitiser on Lordship Lane yet this shop had a big sign outside advertising they were and the stuff on sale was as above.

I doubt its from an aircraft- why would it be? They are still pretty high when they fly over you know, hardly like standing behind a car exhaust. If they were to do this as normal practice there would be far too many complaints from busybodies, so if there is any fuel to be dumped when there is an emergency they do it at sea.

Im happy to see that yuppie shop close down as it was pointless and an awful replacement for Surma. Hopefully something useful and affordable will take it place, such as a cheap off license or small KFC/fried chicken shop (since the one opposite closed earlier this year). The next place id like to see go is that health shop beside Hisar, i was warned by my housemate that during the lockdown and early stages of the pandemic they were selling room odourisers and saying they were hand sanistisers, charging ?5 for the privilege. Thats clearly a shop the community could do without.

Women i find are happy to not go anywhere near the BBQ, for various reasons such as their hair will get smelly, and this is certainly how it should stay. No one bothers eating the salad or healthy stuff apart from the women, so they can take care of that aspect , and the men should just get on with cooking the meat and drinking cold beers. Washing up is also best handled by the woman.

I do not want your sob story, although its actually quite refreshing to hear of some real life woes here rather than the pathetic whingeing about middle class problems in a city with all manner of social issues and widespread deprivation. I do live locally, although im sure i've probably noticed you looking down your nose at me in M&S because im not lucky enough to be a millionaire when assets are taken into account, as most are around here. Ill just continue on fine and dandy remaining ruefully amused at posts such as yours, good luck with your utterly cringeworthy and pointless crusade to get CCTV installed (when it already is- how do think that tragic incident outside the corner shop last year got solved?) perhaps if you stamp your foot enough someone will take pity on you and pander to your demands.

I only wore a mask once or twice (i no longer do because i value being able to do what i like) but found that when i went to cough, i'd always cough outside of the mask, to get rid of any germs. So even if i did wear a mask, it would be pointless as i wouldnt want to cough or sneeze inside of it.

No, not particularly. Its amazing how fanatical people get on here about the simplest most irrelevant thing- someone didnt clean up their dog poo- disgraceful! Someone nicked something from the local co-op- burn the witch! My bins didnt get emptied on time- scandalous! All whilst perched nicely in your ?1 million + fancy East Dulwich house, when a mile or so away other humans are living in poverty. I really hope you get your CCTV, so some feckless junkies can be sent to prison for a couple of months for nicking a sandwich, perhaps that will make the 'ED community' so much safer.

No use crying over nicked milk.

Stop sensationalising a few people stealing some booze from the shops of Lordship Lane, we are in a borough with one of the highest knife crime rates in London- get a grip.

Are you deliberately being obtuse for some reason? Walk down Lordship Lane and take a proper look- there is CCTV clear as day at the end of long poles. Off the top of my head there is one opposite the Bishop outside that hippy charity shop. London is one of the most heavily covered CCTV cities in the world by far- do you think that Lordship Lane gets off with not having any cameras for the prevention of crime? Additionally, one of my previous posts explains Co-op's security arrangements, which includes CCTV.

BLM would do well to intervene/heal the murders that are happening in their community like the ones in the article (reposted below) as a starting point. Then perhaps Police will settle down a bit on the stop and search. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/08/02/murder-camberwell-south-london-neighbourhood-affluence-deprivation/

Co-op on Lordship lane absolutely have CCTV, there is sporadic announcements advising that Mitie (an external security company) are constantly monitoring the system, and in addition there is 1 and sometimes 2 security guards in the shop. Can i just check why anyone would actually care if people nick a few bits from a major supermarket retailer? it has no effect on you whatsoever, why waste your time worrying about it? It must be nice not having to worry about money but some people do, and shoplifting (victimless crime) is a good way to make up for the lack of benefits and social help this country now provides for those down in doldrums.

Got to agree with Jim- i never wear a mask and have had rows with people on Lordship Lane who have had the chutzpah to dare challenge me why (they soon learn not to again). There is literally no point in making everyone wear a mask, we might as well go back in lockdown and be done with it if half arsed measures such as this are introduced way after the damage is done. Do you really expect people to wear masks for the next 2 years? As that is how long it will be until a vaccine is widely available. At least with a second wave everyone is going to be better prepared for it as we have already gone through the motions earlier this year, and the more people who have herd immunity the better. Yes, we will loose some elderly, but as Jim rightly points out they are on the way out anyway and there is no point denying young people their lives and jobs just to protect his group from the inevitable .
