Just come out of peckham pulse and there was a big crowd on the main road and lots of people running to get away. Apparently they were breaking into ladbrookes. The staff at the pulse were closing up with quite a few people still inside. We thought we'd make a dash for it to avoid being stuck in there. Sad times.

Cycling home past peckham pulse. intending to go down bellenden rd past B.King. Saw smashed bus with a row of riot police by it. People milling round with the odd rock / missile thrown by masked individual - not sure how far rye lane the trouble goes. Groups of people milling around. might need to advise those who are not online etc.

No way.

What are the odds of that?

My husband was just on a bus on the walworth road which got caught with the police on one side of it and looters on the other. The bus kicked everyone off and the looters kindly let the passangers walk back towards elephant. Choose another way home folks, not sure any buses will get down there for a while.

The Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbo's was open a quarter-hour ago -- all shutters rolled down, security personnel tapping batons into their palms outside. Erm, make that two security guards and three blokes in J Sainsbury livery, one walkie-talkie amongst the five.


If you had a tan from your holiday you weren't allowed in. Please discount that statement as well.


However, my housemate, who described the scene there in somewhat **cough** inflammatory terms, says, and this is a TRUE, that from the window of the 68 he saw three separate muggings between Burgess Park and Camberwell Green -- a moped stolen and two bicycles stolen, knocked off whilst riding and scarpered on the stolen goods.

      Not quite sure where all these references come from as Tommy Rooney being a great/swift communicator - that couldn't be further from our experience.  Rang him a week ago today/Monday to check that he was able to do Gas Safe inspection/cert' for me.  Emailed him the same morning with all the relevant information, messaged him Friday to check whether he's able to schedule it in, called (x3) and messaged again today - without a single response ..... If he can't or doesn't want the work - it would be much easier for all concerned to just say so.  Really not impressed.  Am gutted our regular Gas Safe guy of many years has retired.

      Cost of fags in WHS.. Victoria Station

      Who can afford to smoke. I know someone who buys their tobacco at  duty free prices from a local shop. You can get cheap but fake tobacco from the market shops in Peckham, but these are dangerously detrimental to your health. I have no idea why these shops are allowed to sell such cr*p and get away with it.

      Cost of fags in WHS.. Victoria Station

      By Sue · Posted

      Shops in stations are catering for people in a hurry who want/need to buy things they haven't had the forethought/time/inclination to buy before they got to the station. Therefore the shops have a captive market,  and I imagine can charge whatever they think said captive market will pay, at least for things which don't have a set price marked on them, like magazines. It is also possible that their overheads like rent are greater in a station, though I have absolutely no idea about that. I'm a bit surprised if M&S are charging more in stations though? I bought a filled baguette at the small M&S upstairs at  London Bridge on Sunday because I didn't have time for breakfast, and it didn't seem any more expensive than I have previously paid at M&S food stores  elsewhere?
