That is a crazy response!!! Of course everyone feels dreadful for people who have lost their homes and businesses but you have to get a grip and keep positive. I was with mrs F and it was indeed a pleasant walk, how is that a joke!?? Is everyone supposed to just give up, be miserable and scared in their houses? Or cry at the smashed windows of the Palmerston. I think it is clear from the number of views on this thread how much we all love our community and our businesses. who is suggesting it's a joke?!

looks like the looting has been taken to a new level - a friend of mine send me this and despite all the current ongoings it made me smile



and yes i am taking this whole thing serious but i think we have all expressed how terrible and serious the past days have been and how much we all care about our local commuty

Peckham very quiet, sad about the clothes shop that was burnt down and not overly bothered by Tesco. Low profile policing and had a chat with some of the officers. Impressed by the tribute outside Poundland. Hopefully that will be it. Think despite how bad it has all been some over-reporting and also the rumour mill hasn't helped.

I am aware of that, there were some older criminals, and they probably started the looting, and I suspect the kids then followed suit, and carried it on.


The older ones either got arrested, or have been smart enough to stay quiet, whilst the kids run riot on some mental rampage.

Yep I agree with that elizabethg, its been reassuring to read of people carrying on as usual. I think the police and emergency services have been fantastic. Have also talked to so many people at bus stops, shops and on the street (more than ever). Everyone trying to support each other where they can.


The forum has been supremely helpful, really appreciate the resource.

Jezza, jezza


first of all, portal 2 involves rather more intelligence than the average looter posseses - more likely to be some grim. grey military shooter


Secondly portal 2 only lasts about 6-8 hours so if you're correct about their choices, watch those streets again

OK then... Killzone 3? (actually that's what I'm playing at the moment, but I didn't nick it, honest...)

That boy is a regular at the Goose Green playground.


I only recognise his face, as I've noticed he's always up at the playground not to play (too old/cool for that), but just hanging about, pushing the other (smaller) kids in his little posse about.

He'll be found, his is one of the main pictures the press is using. I had a run in with him once outside Tescos too. He tried to throw something at my bike.

    • My bird app just picked up swifts before I heard or saw them!  
    • I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you.

    • Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him! 
    • ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
