Hi all, just thought I'd let you know, I'm on Solway Road and on Wed night one of my tyres was slashed and both my number plates stolen. I wasn't really sure how serious this was, but contacted the DVLA and police. Also let them know what else had been going on with the cars, and they said they'd inform the community police officers, although they may be aware already?
In January this year ago my car was also broken into on Solway Road. I informed our local councillors about what even then seemed to be a recurring problem. Councillor Aubyn Grahame emailed me to say it would be raised with the neighbourhood community safety team and I asked him in reply to let me know what the outcome was. He never got back to me, so whether any action was ever taken remains a mystery.

I also was contacted about Solway Road regarding dumped minicabs. Although not in East Dulwich ward the residents were at the end of their teather going via other channels ie. Cllr Aubyn Graham.

I visited the site, dragged Caroline Pidgeon along one of the Greater London Authority members. She chased Transport for London which from memory she chaired at the time as to why/how minicabs could be involved in vehicle dumping. Last time I checked the problem had gone...

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
