Hello fairyuk27. I hope you're settling into the area. ED is a friendly area and like everywhere else caters for all tastes and opinions. However, if you find yourself meeting locals for the first time it may be wise to keep your views to yourself until you can gauge the opinions of the person you're talking to on the following areas of local contention:


Marks & Spencer/Waitrose versus Iceland/Co-op

Royal Wedding Street Parties

Local independent shops good value or too dear

Plastic bags

Dog Poo

Mums with children's buggies

Travellers parking on your street

Faith Schools

Whetherspoons pubs

Cars v cycling

Cultural differences between the Dulwich end of ED v Peckham end of ED

Late night opening and people being ill in your garden

Queuing up outside Purveyors of High Quality meat shops

First past the post versus AV voting


Depending on your views fairytuk27, within minutes you can be accused of fascism, nazism, racism, homophobia, being anti-scientific, anti-jewish, anti-poor and so on.


Welcome.

Welcome FairyUK - it's not always as fun as SiverFox makes it out to be, sometimes it can all workaday and rational.

    • Steve used to joke that my old VW Golf kept them in business. I've got a more reliable car now so maybe that's why they are closing. Sad day. 
    • Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.
    • So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?
    • No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.
