susieb Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Does anyone know if there is any public transport running from central London to east dulwich? My boyfriend cycled in to work and I'm really scared about him cycling home tonight Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WS Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 met wife of the train at ed at 21.15 from london bridge not sure if that was the last service or not. took 176 up LL, p13 seems to be operating a limited service - obviously not going through peckham Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462536 Share on other sites More sharing options...
merylou Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 don't know about trains but the buses are still running along Lordship Lane Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462537 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beej Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 apparently the last train to east dulwich stopped midway on the track as east dulwich station is closed, if he's on a bike maybe he could go the back routes to avoid the trouble.

Clio731 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 What a stupid comment. Surely the most important thing is that out local area is being ripped apart!!! Who cares about a stupid Waitrose store - complete snobbery!!!

steveb Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I seen about 20 0r so milling around Lordship Lane and trying to break into Londis not 1 policeman in sight probably overstretched.

Michael Palaeologus Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 An attempt at black humour. The Waitrose thing is a long running gag. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalamityKel Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 What's more disturbing is the age of some of these thugs. The group that targeted Lordship Lane could only have been around 13/14 yrs old *sighs* Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462548 Share on other sites More sharing options...

muffins78 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 This is more than hideous. I just cannot believe it. What a bunch of crazy horrible thugs! They'll be complaining and looking for sympathy for their actions next, saying the country isn't looking after them well enough. I hope everyone stays safe tonight. x Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18884-trouble-in-peckham/page/6/#findComment-462552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebwec01 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Why don't they just bring in the military?? I'm actually quite scared now, it's too close.

Cam123 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I just spoke to a friend who's balcony looks over East Dulwich road, she reported seeing a "child, 12 at most" carrying a full shopping basket away from Tesco earlier.

Alex K Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Absolutely correct, Clio731. Postponement of access to Waitrose is trivial compared to what this will do to house prices...Erm, sorry. Black humour, again, and likely also a mis-fire. In seriousness: I am afraid. I am appalled. I am disgusted by a police force that has forgotten how to use force.I have the front door on double-lock and the baseball bat in the hall, and I am glad not to live near the high street.

Michael Palaeologus Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Wise words Undisputedtruth. You live up to your name.Bet Kebab and Wine are still open.
