A very well deliverd piece...not sure i seen "pikies" on that list!!! Is that not how you described 'them' in the zippo circus thread? Not sure you'd find that description in haringey councils information on Gypsies.


My point really is that you have a very negative and narrow view of circus professionals...as if in their spare time, all they can do is knock on the door of local residents to sell dish cloths or rob them! I have spotted your zippo circus remarks in 3 threads. I have never really felt compelled to get to involved with threads, but your comments are incredibly predjudice, and more so, slanderous. Get over it, the circus is just a circus...not a den of artful dodgers, dasterdly faggins, armed robbers or harber women you need to cross palms with silver coins. It has budgies and ponies....or is that mearly facade? Talk about killjoy.

FYI the circus EMPLOYS very talented artists from around the world and the entourage needed to tranport them. These days you can even do a degree in Circus skills and management. There are circus schools. Are Cirque Du Soleil the bandits you describe? The modern circus is a profession and business like any other employing performers that have far more talent than you can ever hope to have.


You are talking bs as usual.

You know Pearson, I have very little regard for saddo fatty crinklies who have failed in life and want to blame everyone else for their troubles. Like you.


Or do you think you belong in a different pigeon-hole? Like track-suited alcoholic wasters, for example?

We had our doorbell rung repeatedly for a number of minutes just after 2am on Saturday morning (Goodrich Road). We tried ignoring it as it was so late at night but eventually my boyfriend went down to see what all the fuss was about. As soon as he turned the main hall light on and shouted 'Who's there?' the ringing stopped and when he opened the door there was no one there, although he didn't venture out into the street to see if there was anyone running away. The same thing happened again at 5.20 this morning.


The rational side of my brain thinks that we may just be on the same doorbell frequency as someone else on the street but it's slightly unnerving that both times the ringing stopped when he shouted through the door :-(


Any thoughts on whether this is the sort of thing that should be reported to the police? It may be malicious but could equally be a dodgy doorbell so I don't want to waste anyone's time!

Hi Shell_8,

I can think of many reasonable reasons for this.

Equally, when we had a forcible entry by kicking the front door in I'd ignored repeated door belling ringing.

Ringing the doorbell is a great way to see if someone is home or not.

It can do no harm to email our East Dulwich Safer Neighbourhood Team (assuming you live in East Dulwich ward) on [email protected]

your experiences and they'll decide whether it fits a pattern or not.

    • My bird app just picked up swifts before I heard or saw them!  
    • I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you.

    • Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him! 
    • ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
