Just a heads up - a house in Underhill Road was burgled (door kicked-in) at about 5:30 on Saturday afternoon. The police were called almost immediately (within 2 minutes of the sound of the door being kicked in) but missed the robbers by about 2 minutes - apparently they had been held up during a demonstration (or something) in Peckham. The police were given a description of two of the robbers (apparently there was a third in a car, which was also described to the police). The two described were IC3 males in (at best) early 20s. Possibly younger. The house was empty (nobody in, not un-lived-in) at the time.
Two people were seen running to get into a car (small saloon/ hatchback and dark) at the time of the burglary, by a separate witness to the burglary. The description and registration details were given to the police at the time. There is supposition, but no proof, that the burglars and the people who jumped into the car were the same people. Again, the use of a police descriptor (IC3) was used as that descriptor is used to say what the observer believed the ethnicity of the individual was (what they looked like to the observer)- which is not (necessarily) the same as the ethnicity which would be claimed by the person observed. I'm not sure (considering the police have the actual registration number) why the car description would be additionally useful on these pages.

    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.   
    • Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
    • The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local  food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
