was walking the doggies in the park yesterday when a sainsbury's delivery van came trundling along the footpath. as the dogs were scampering back and forth, I stopped the van asked what he was doing. he said he was delivering to the cafe (0n the other side of the park) and was lost. I told him where the cafe was and he said (honest!): "i've done the delivery but I couldn't find a way back out." he then drove off along the narrow path beside the picnic area and managed to rip some branches off the trees. the last we saw of him was getting jammed in somewhere near the saxby gardens. what a pillock

Very profound/true signature, Alan M :)


Never noticed it on your posts before.


Though I would have put an "apparently" before the first "looking".


Sorry, as you were thread people :))

Satnavs eh? Pahhh

I live on the Nunhead side of Peckham Rye and came across a car round the back of Torridge Gardens. The driver asked me where the cafe was in the park as their satnav had told them to come down Torridge Gardens.

I said, couldn't you see the park on your right as you drove up here? TYhey said they had. I said, did you not see the road leading IN to the park? They said yes.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
