I do take that as threatening behaviour, yet your the one hiding behind your computer screen,

pummelled, i take it your also one of these socks & sandal wearing numptys,

And since im 10 n half stone, i found myself far from fat.


DaveR to your statement about IQ tests. Yes perhaps they should, but then you wanna-be posh blubbering fools who think they know everything would not have one.


ive grown up in dulwich, and my gosh the change, ha you all think you live in the perfect area.

God open ur eyes, its south london, not chelsea :). Sorry that the true hurts people.

I'm confused now. I thought this was a cyclists vs motorists thread but now it's veered off into a posh wannabe incomers vs old school salt of the earth dulwich folk thread. Is that allowed?


Much more interesting is the potential fight in the offing between LadyDeliah and the 10 stone weakling who is DulwichMoan. I'd pay to see that.

The speed limit is the maximum, so in effect this is the minimum speed that you have to drive. Very few cyclists can get up to 30mph, therefore it is best to ride on the pavement.


The problem with pavements is the pedestrian. They have no rear view mirror, nor indicators (or will not make normal hand signals) and therefore do some very strange things such as suddenly stop without warning to check a text, or just cross the road without warning as they are listening to their i-pod or on the phone.



There should of course be a walking test, a footpath code, and prosecutions for those who fail to obey it.

I agree with dm. People on bikes who go through red lights and then to the pavement in order to keep moving. Then look at you like your Hitler when you try to nudge them softly with your bumper. These are the same gentrified lovers of "freerange" meat that form long lines out side the butchers on LL going round the block. The same people who call their kids names like "abigail" and "Sebastian" and buy their kids Nirvana t shirts.

    • A belated recommendation for Iain and Paul od Oddbods who came to help me with various jobs before Christmas.  Painting ceiling, renewing silicone around bath, repairing a window sill which was almost beyond repair and hanging a large mirror.   Very happy with their work and they are friendly and very reliable and excellent at communicating.  No hesitation in recommending them.
    • I just wanted to post for all my neighbours a recommendation of Niko, the wonderful plumber who works locally. Niko has done work for me over the years, including large and small jobs. He recently replaced four radiators in my house which have helped us really be warm for the first time! I recommend Niko so whole heartedly because (1) he is completely straight forward and will advise you not to do something / a cheaper solution, if that is what is best for you; and (2) he is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever known. He goes the extra mile to sort out problems, particularly urgent ones.   
    • Scaremongering - there is very little vacant land in East Dulwich available as sites for building 9 storey buildings so this is rather hypothetical. It could even be said the occasional taller, modern building breaks up the monotony of Victorian terraced housing.
    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
