Oi! I'm Spurs fan and rarely confused apart from when I've mixed up my drugs with too much alcohol or vice versa. I certainly wouldn't get confused between White Hart Lane and Lordship Lane but, yes I have heard it called the Strip on many occasions but that would refer to the bit where all the restaurants and bars are from the EDT to the Magdala.

Fear n' boozing and I have called it the strip before, but only in a p!ss taking manner.


I only heard "The Lane" recently when my sister said she'd heard it.... It's rubbish, but it is easier to say when drunk! I usually just point in the general direction and say "I'm going sown there for beer"... People get what I'm saying ;-)


As for "Town", I had a girlfriend a few years back from Oooop North, and when we stayed in Dulwich for the first time. she told me she was going to go in to town. I of course instructed her to walk down to Lordship Lane, and jump on a 176, only for her to look at me like I was mental... That said, Lordship Lane is rather more lively that the actual centre of the town she was from!


If anything, I actually like "The Strip", just because it's such an obvious p!ss take >:D<

Is it only me or did anyone else think that photo of Helen Lederer was simply dreadful? Last month she was in Dulwich Life magazine, and she looked happy and life like. A normal pretty woman of her age. In the Living South she looked so airbrushed that she was unrecognisable. Why did they do that?

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).
    • Found it but cannot contact owner as no email or message on it. e*****@icloud.com   please let me know if you’ve recently lost an Apple Watch SE
    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
