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.

    • drop your offer price dramatically and continue, or walk away. 
    • The price isn’t as cheap as probate properties, yet the condition is basically the same as those probate houses, and most properties do not have subsidence claim history. I told the agent I was looking for a probate property, but they still ended up recommending this one to me. I don’t dislike the estate agent, I think they genuinely didn’t know! but I was indeed led into this step by step. I don’t believe the seller will lower the price, and I don’t have the time to negotiate anyway. As I said, there are many straightforward houses out there. I’ll wait to see the insurance quotation and whether the seller is willing to fix the main water drainage issue before deciding on the next step. Yes, this is something that needs to be fixed, as it’s painful to deal with TW and deal with drainage issue
    • Farage, like most of its pupils, wasn't a boarder.
    • n addition to this, the house has suspected drainage issues and a leaking incoming water main. The owner is aware of these problems but has been unable to carry out repairs—likely because Thames Water has not cooperated. Drainage issues are a nightmare for any buyer, and although the water main leak is less serious, it is still time-consuming to resolve with Thames Water.   Many houses in london have shared drains. Ours runs along the back of the block of houses to a near by road as a shared drain it is the sole responsibility of TW to fix it. They will do this if you get heavy with them. If the house you are buying is like this, the current owners need to make TW fix it. You need a better explanation not just "TW not co-operating", why haven't they been legally forced to co-operated. Sounds very 0dd indeed. I would not trust them. I am with Sue and CPR Dave
