TonyQuinn Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Stop moaning everyone....it's as good a place as any in London. It has issues etc...it's just a crap piece of journalism in a crap newspaper. But it's free advertising. Just accept it for what it is! Don't take life too seriously Mr/Mrs/Ms East Dulwich!

millymoll Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Don't think she can be local as Waverley school was long since pulled down and replaced by Harris.Can't say I've ever seen Sue Perkins around either (though maybe she's keeping a low profile) - Ithought perhaps she meant Jenny Eclair...

RinkyDink Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Mmmm... creatively written while looking through rose tinted glasses. Behind every great property page there is a great estate agent.Of course it's the sort of thing the gullible lap up. The thoughts of women cycling up and down in all their flowery organic loveliness, and rosy cheeked children playing in all the open spaces is a great way to 'talk-up' buying a poky, over priced semi on a crowded Victorian street in a minor South East London suburb, with dodgy transport links. The journalistic equivalent to Harry & Paul's "I Saw You Coming".

AcedOut Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Any reference to good schools I thought was referring to the public schools. Are there any decent state schools in London? James Allen and Dulwich College etc. But then what would I know...!

huncamunca Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Lazy smug hacks seem to constantly big up the hood. Then again, they are hardly likely to describe the place where their 3 bed semi with 40ft garden, loft conversion, period features and GCH ( Not tested )lies, as a crime ridden crack hellhole.This however can make refreshing change from repetitive, off the shelf articles on glamping or shitty beach huts in Whitstable that these uninspired shitehawks usually churn out.

annaj Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Puzzled, I'm, um, puzzled by your response.Reading through the thread there seems to be a mix of people saying they love it round here, people saying the article is a bit OTT and cynics suggesting it's all about property prices. The only real angst is from huncamunca and he's like that about everything. I expect eater81's post was pretty angsty and spiteful, but I didn't see it before it was deleted, so can't say for sure. Seems a bit harsh to brand everyone as appaling and desperate...

karter Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 ED is a great area there is no doubt about that and i do agree with annaj about the harshness of what was/is said but do also agree with puzzled too about it being a nice area and respect to him/her for just trying to look out for it.
