In 15 years I've never seen anyone cycling around it at 25mph! Most cyclists do stick to the limit - not hard to gauge as it's just faster than brisk walking pace. You get the odd lycra lout or teenager doing closer to 10mph in short bursts but for any serious cyclist it must be a discouraging route unless it's cold, raining or dusk.

When we had dogs, apart from the designated dog walk area, we could let the dogs off the lead only on what was known as the cricket field. ( Right hand big field from Court Lane gate) everywhere else was on leads. Mind you that was some years ago.


The problem I have is those dogs on extendable leads, some owners seem to walk about 10 feet behind especially in crowded area. I feel they are a trip hazard especially for children and those who are not nimble on their feet

You could not be more correct. I board dogs when Owners are away and I tell all prospective customers that I will not be using them in the park. The dogs will either be on conventional leads, or in 90%+ cases of the dogs I take in , off the lead altogether once we are in the park or field etc...though, at the end of the day, I am just a " hired hand" and have to adhere, strictly, to the Owners requests and wishes.

    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
