Nicknames should be short and preferably end in "ee" so its got to be Lordy. How cool would it be to twin with Lordi the death rock Finnish former Eurovision winners?


NB I'm not Xanadustar just her old fella formerly known as Anon (Bloody Lurker). Back to the Shadows for me - be good......

Perhaps she was talking about Rye Lane? An elderly neighbour of mine who'd lived in ED all her life used to talk about going down 'the Lane' when she meant Rye Lane as that's where all the 'quality' shops used to be? Just a thought... Lordship Lane as 'the Lane' sounds far too pretentious and it's such a landmark and good starting point for giving directions. Just a thought...

lordship lane does get confused with east dulwich road,many a times we have received post for east dulwich road,and when people come into Ed they always ask the LL natives about places on Ed road tinking they are on Ed road????Although LL is not that clearly marked from either the goose green end or the harvester end

      Cyclist visibility

      But, are there advisories out for pedestrians to wear helmets and reflective gear at night, unless they are night walking along roads without footpaths, in which case it probably makes sense for them to do so. If not, is that because for the most part pedestrians are on pavements and cars on roads, limiting contact between the two, in the city at any rate. On the other hand, cyclists, if using roads (as they mostly should) are closer to other vehicles and therefore at greater risk, especially, if as some do, they take risks and weave in and out of moving traffic. I think wearing reflective gear and probably a helmet ( though I know that is contentious) is a good thing and to be encouraged, not mocked or undermined.

      BTW, this is a local discussion forum. So it kind of is a debate.

      Presumably at the same point the person doesn't feel any sympathy for a female victim of assault cos well, that skirt she was wearing, she doesn't deserve any sympathy. Same with that kid who got mugged cos well what was he doing walking through there at that time of night, doesn't deserve any sympathy. You left a window open, of course you got burgled, you don't deserve any sympathy. Maybe everyone in Gaza being shelled to bits could just have upped and left, they probably don't deserve any sympathy either. It's a horrible phrase and frankly anyone using it - whether it's for a cyclist being knocked off or the more extreme examples I've cited above - really needs a long hard look in the mirror because victim blaming doesn't solve anything, in fact it often marginalises or makes excuses for criminal behaviour.
