mockney piers Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Oh no, what happened to Tom?I liked him, nice chap, despite his penchant for unnecessarily ott emotive language in his strap lines. :-PAnyhoo, welcome to the area and best of luck in the new job!! (and any chance of toning the scaremongering down a bit ;-)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1649-south-london-press/#findComment-45539 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennyc Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 I'll do my best! Tom's gone off to be chief reporter at a paper in Harrow but I well endeavour to fill his ample shoes.

AnotherPaul Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Hi JennyDid you know there's a public meeting tonight, 20.15 at the community centre on Crystal Palace Road? It's about the proposed late night pharmacy and needle dump. Seeing as the thread here was shut due folks getting ott with each other it might be quite charged and worth a look.ap Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1649-south-london-press/#findComment-45576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Palaeologus Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Welcome Jenny - keep an eye on the Forum and you will not want for hot topics.For a starter - what about those Green Parrots?

Its the usual Bara General Meeting, but everyone is welcome to attend. Bara's main topic is the pharmacy, but I've seen that there are also quite a few others topics on the agenda.

Maurice Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 One does love a read of the SLP. You can play 'bingo' with words like:YobShockingMurderGruesomeAll good fun. And you have to love how they equally berate yobs and but blame local Government for the mistreatment of poor victims on Estates.

Jah Lush Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Crystal Palace FC may have gotten rid of their manager Peter Taylor but I don't think they'll be that desperate.

LeonWatson Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Don't worry, Tom will be back for next year's charity challenge cricket match playing for the SLP.Glad to see we amuse from time to time - the SLP always has had a slightly macabre take on things, and we get away with far more dark humour than you'll find in other local papers.

PeckhamRose Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 See what you've taken on, Jenny? Hope you're up (or down) to the SLP's level of "reporting". I have to admit I never buy and rarely read the rag, simply because of those hideous headlines and how it seems to be aimed at - well, no that would be offensive to say. Am I a snob?

sowfboy1 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Good to have you on board, Jenny. South London Press is a bit of a rag, but it's my local rag, so good on you.One thing though. Can you get a bit of commonsense back there. Some of the stuff your paper writes is way over it Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1649-south-london-press/#findComment-46382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
