If cannabis was legalised, at least the tax would hopefully go towards the huge numbers of lung cancer treatments it causes and puts the NHS under extra strain for and if available in oils, edibles etc it would help out a ton of people living with the many health issues it has proven to relieve the pain of.


Sadly, no matter what the government, I can't ever see it being legalised in the UK, which is a shame imho.


Regarding those canisters, unfortunately I see them all over the place in ED, regularly on our street too and it's something that is obviously getting worse and worse.

I reckon many places, including the U.K., will watch Canada carefully over the coming years to see how it affects them. Big tobacco is keen for legalisation as revenue in the West is dropping precipitously and they see legalised weed as a good way to make money.


I don?t think it?ll happen any time soon, by any stretch, but if Canada makes a success of it (which is far from a given in my view) then I think many nations will see an increase in lobbying for legalisation.

I'd suggest that as Canada is not only closer to us in population size but also in terms of legislature and legal system, and has introduced a nationwide legalization, its model might well be of more validity in predicting what might happen in the UK than the USA model.

Surely it would be more relevant to give the police the registration number? What would be the point of posting it on here? Have I missed something?

I'm afraid I don't really understand this. Can you please spell out the details more fully.

To what end?

That's name and shame effectively.

None. It is a very safe. I don't think it's possible to prevent yourself prom breathing, unless you use a noose or a belt.

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
