Hi there East Dulwichonians,


Has anyone had any problems with tyre slashing in ED? A few of us on Crystal Palace Road (Lordship Lane end) have had our tyres stabbed over the past week. Anyone in the area might want to be vigilant against such activity.


Kind regards,


Karim

Huh... I used to live on CPR. One of my first experiences was getting grief from my neighbour for parking in "her" space! Unbelievable!

If it IS people trying to ensure cars don't park where THEY want to park THEIR cars, the conclusion could be that the perpetrators are very near. Shocking behaviour, because it implies that someone would rather damage your property than walk a few yards to their car.

If it's the SAME area being victimised, perhaps someone could put up a cam looking down at the area and encourage everyone to park there in the hope of capturing the baddie on film. It may mean sacrificing more tyres though..

Regular tyre damage might raise suspicions against those who benefit from new tyre sales or repairs in the area?


Does anyone know if there is a pattern to the make and model of car or the type, make or size of tyres or the geographical locations of such incidents?

Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure it isn't about parking spaces...there is only one person around this area who "protects" his space by putting his bins out but nobody challenges it as there are usually other places to park, so I don't understand it at all. But/and it is annoying and expensive!

Eh? I wasnt being sarcastic.


I never knew that bit of the forum was there until quite recently when someone mentioned it. Probably hardly anybody else does either.


My post was written trying to be helpful


Why did you think it was sarcasm?


ETA: You asked for a number. I gave you one in good faith. Maybe a thank you would have been more in order than a nasty remark??


ETA: And maybe an apology?


ETA: For anyone else who doesn't know, you go to the Home page of this forum and on the top right hand side, next to the Forum tab, there's a greyed-out tab saying Local Info, which if you click on it brings up - Local Info

      I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan.

      First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .

      The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
