Peckham Road looks calm enough at the moment, hoodies dispersed for now but I wouldn't go out there tonight..!

Snowboarder. As of half an hour ago, trains were still coming through from London Bridge fast to East Dulwich and then the usual stops, but diverted to East rather than West Croydon.


Decided to abandon the bike and meet the wife and get the train together based on the posts on this thread...

I agree with the posters who want to go in a block and tell everyone to go home. It isn't the police's fault and it isn't the economy. I teach in Peckham and these are kids from my classes and there are other people here who know them and they belong for the most part to normal families who cannot in a pinch control them. I teach Maths and when I try to teach I cannot control some of my pupils who are intent on stopping everyone's learning. The same kids who are dead centre looting refuse to learn and squander opportunity when they are showered with it. The police should be supported by all of us walking to the problem and all the parents who know their kids are not at home have to get out there and get them home. None of us are perfect not teachers or police or parents. Life isn't a game show or a lottery which is what all the kids are allowed to think. They don't want to learn and work because they think that's for suckers.

They should lock up all these thugs,they dont represent ordinary people who struggle to pay bills and put food on the table,they are just using the shooting of mark duggan as an excuse to steal because they want everything for nothing. I work in lewisham and will be inspecting the damage there tomorrow....

Is all the 24-hour coverage on the news helping or hindering? Is it encouraging others to go out and create havoc and get their 15 minutes of fame? Is it giving them ideas on what to do to cause maximum damage - I know I've been educated on the best way to set a car on fire after watching the news.

Waitrose plans take a twist with a space soon to be available at the Tesco on ED Road.


Seriously, do people riot when a member of the public kills another member of the public? MyNameHere's post really strikes a chord - good words.

      That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?

      Sad news about a cat, SE4

      By HTED · Posted

      This is a bit outside our area, but I'm posting in case .... Last night (Sat.20 Dec), around 10.30, we saw a cat hit by a car in St Norbert Road, SE4.  We took him to the out of hours vet in Beckenham, where they confirmed that he had died.  They will see if he is microchipped, and contact the owner if so.  They were very kind.   He was a lovely cat, grey and white.  He must have died very quickly.  So sorry to be the bearer of bad news 😞 The vet is Medivet in Beckenham, tel: 0208 650 2003.

      Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.

      It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats.
