I was turning right on my bike just now from DV up Calton Ave then right again up Court Lane. A group of 6-8 mopeds, at least one with two people on it, came up very fast behind and then around me, with at least one cutting up the wrong lane, missing me by a couple of inches as I turned right. They were bunched close together and weaving about, and perhaps thought it was funny as they were laughing and beeping. Presumably if that wasn't the right interpretation they'd have stopped to check if I was OK.


Reported it to 101. Don't suppose the police will do anything but if the group succeed in killing someone obviously I'll feel bad if I hadn't reported it. Seems people have to be injured or killed before the authorities will deal with this menace.

Thanks. Recomposed myself by removing not one but two dirty nappies from roof of car parked outside my door. Could leave it for the neighbour involved but I guess they're not bothered and it seemed preferable to waiting until the foxes found them.


Think I've had it with this area. So tired of putting up with antisocial behaviour.

Might it be possible that the car owner got home, unpacked the car, put the nappies temporarily on the roof and then forgot to take them inside?


If it was their kids' dirty nappies, they would surely not leave them on their car roof!

I also reported this to the police on Monday at about 7:30pm. Heavily pregnant and had to run across a junction on Nunhead Lane, as 10-12 kids went through red lights and brought all the traffic to a honking standstill. So incredibly dangerous.


Little bastards.

Again, as per your previous attempt to be "humorous" regarding that thread, utter BS. One person objected to the use of the phrase; everybody else objected to your frothing demand that a person who had killed another should just be left alone by police without due process because you'd already decided on what happened.

They might well have forgotten, as you say, but I didn't like to ask! I cleared them away as better - and easier - to do it before the foxes have had a go.

Really? What would you consider to be properly offensive these days? What would you hate being called?

Game of Thrones changed that word for me I think - and they tended to use it in it's original meaning.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By Sue · Posted

      How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      By richard tudor · Posted

      There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

      Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
