Constant Bad Smell coming from ally leading to Peckham Rye Station.

[Takeshi_Kovacs]

Hi All,

I'm sorry that my first post is a negative one.

I have lived in the Belleden Road area of Peckham Rye for almost a year now and I really enjoy living here; its a hidden gem. However I do feel the area is let down by the area of shops near PeckHam Rye Station. The smell coming from the ally leading to Peckham Rye Station is unacceptable most days; really revolting food smells coming from the complex just before the station court yard just before the dentist. If you use that ally you know what I am talking about!

Also the mess left by the Nail and Hair shops at the bottom of Blenhiem Grove is also appalling, I have seen used nappies in the street and it looks like the shops just dump there waste in the street as you see "Tumble-Weaves", blowing around the street like its some frontier town.

I was just wondering if this has been mentioned before and if not what can be done to remove the problem?

Take photos, email to [email protected] with your name and contact details and a description of the problem. Keep doing so until they sort it out.

I've complained to the environment line before about this, and put Fix My Street alerts on it. As you say, seems to be fly-tipping by some of the shops / parlours around the vicinity. Not a nice sight when you have to step through hair and butchers' waste on the way to work. Keep complaining and hopefully they'll do something about it...

Wow dirt on the streets! This is totally unacceptable in a civilised society. Can you detect the racial origins of said dirt? It used to be like that in Germany in the 1930's until a radical new politician initiated a drive to purify the country. I suggest you write to the Prime Minister and if he fails to do anything you could vote for a radical small party in the future. Just out of interest did you vote for AV ? You could have voted yes and might have been able to exercise your vote in future in a meaningful way. *just saying*

[Takeshi_Kovacs]

What's race got to do with it? I did in fact vote yes. Also are you implying only fascists can keep there streets clean?

Just because it's an African area gives no right to keep it in such a bad state, I'm British Jamaican and I'm sure there are plenty of people in the area that feel the same way regardless of kreed or colour. If you want an equal society then everbody needs to pull their weight and look after there area and consider the other people who share it with them.

Calling the race card is so boring!

This has got to be in the top 10 most stupid posts since the creation of this forum.

Yeh, there are some simple measures which could be taken, like disposing of business rubbish responsibly, which would make the area more pleasant for everyone.

[Fabricio the Guido]

So so boring, why come to the EDF to talk about Peckham ? Some debates are so tired.

[TheOrganicsHa]

Well said Fabricio lets leave the neighborhood alone, As properties around

there are long term investments ;o)

Don't read the thread then.

Or bother posting the most ridiculous absurdities...

*just saying*

"Why come to the EDF to talk about Peckham"

Perhaps because thousands of ED dwellers use PR station each day?

[Annasfield]

I agree - the smell is rank and is worse in the evening. I run down there and hold my breath as it makes me gag.

[*Bob*]

Doesn't everyone enjoy the aroma from half a ton of fish-packing ice, gently melting in the gutter on a warm summer day?

How strange.

[mockney piers]

I can't believe I missed this thread.

I can only surmise that Fabricio had a hefty sell spread bet on as to when this thread would be Godwinned.

[charlottekb]

Just found out what a Godwin is. Made me chortle and guffaw!

[tommy]

Loving the tumble-weaves description. Tru dat.

[Fabricio the Guido]

When I hold a conversation with myself I tend to do it in front of the mirror in the bathroom. To be fair, it is normally followed by a lapse into song.

The whole ranting and raving online is an acquired tastse. Yes, Godwin's law. I tend to agree. I didnt have to google that one. *he says opening the daily mail*

Now where did I leave my white triangular hat? I have a cross burning to attend this evening. :-)

".eerga ot dnet I .wal sniwdoG" The sound of back tracking (If you play it backwards it sounds like 'you're-a-muppet-you're-a-muppet')

all that was missing for a truly epic post was to stick on a plea for a branch of Waitr-*#!-AAAAAA

[Tarot]

Call health and safety at the council,they will check it out and close the shops who have failed to keep it

clean.

They probably dont want to pay the council to have their mess taken away,or tippers have struck,you would think someone from the council would have checked it out by now.

[Frankito]

Great idea Maxxi, one in Peckham and one in ED. Inspired!
