Papa John's Advertising Trailer

[the-e-dealer]

I wish he wasn't "annoying James Barber"

[HAL9000]

Problem solved, by the look of it. For the last few days the advertising message has been covered up by a tarpaulin so now it's just another vehicle parked on the forecourt. Boo sucks to the NIMBYs.

Its not just the advertising which is an eyesore its the fact that its taking up a huge amount of pavement space for no reason. Hard to manoeuvre round it - there is no point to it being there at all. They seem to be aware they are in the wrong yet the trailer is still there. Dont understand why they dont just move it and not risk losing any further custom and causing bad feeling.

Brave boys fighting foreign wars? Goodness me didn't know pizza could excite such a reaction! Good to see the trailer is covered up now though

Sorry James but I don't think you're doing anyone any favours by encouraging the perfidious bed-wetting tendency creeping onto the forum these days. Think my next pizza order will be PJ!

Lol let them get on with it I'm sure if it was a poncey coffee shop no-one around ed would complain

[Thomas Micklewright]

They would, its a giant trailer advertisement obscuring the other shops as well.

As I came by late this evening the trailer is still uncovered, surrounded by 3 delivery motor cycles - surely something can be done about this spread outside the shop - unsightly and taking up pedestrian space - are they just ignoring comments about this - are the other shops bothered?

[charlottekb]

Honestly, who cares? It's a new ED business. Cut them some slack ffs.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Yes the other shops are bothered. This comment was made earlier in the thread:

"It's good to up the prominence of the parade for us (BC Bikes) but when it obscures the shop it gets annoying."

[spunkyxx]

I completely agree. I'm sure because certain people have too much time on there hands. I'm new to the forum and yet to find something positive. Anyone who has posted on this thread. Does this actually affect your view or yourself in any way??? I'm sure most of the comments are people just being bitchy.

[the-e-dealer]

One Reason East Dulwich is a nice place to live is because people DO CARE and do get involved. If they didnt then we could have easily ended up with a Drive in MacDonalds on Goose Green, NO football Stadium on Dog Kennel Hill, and no Leisure Centre. Thank God some people do care about their environment and not every one is lazy and buries their head in the sand. Aso the funds spent on Peckham rye Park only came about due to people campaigning for the funds. If you dont complain about what offends you we will get what we deserve.

[spunkyxx]

So your view is to Bitch on here about a sign which they have clearly given a reason that their 4x4 has broken. At least by having it their the diesel fumes are not ruining the air anymore than it already is. I'm not disputing that what you do, it's the way that some people go about it. Bitching by so called adults is not really the way forward is it. Even people in here complaining about dog poo on their street. Seriously nothing else better to do. That's my point!

[the-e-dealer]

Ok heads in Sand everyone. Just don't complain.

[spunkyxx]

Exactly my point. Pathetic.

[the-e-dealer]

LA LA LA We're not listening LA LA LA LA LA.

[the-e-dealer]

What I really hate is people is who complain about .. people who complain. (They are the least useful people on the planet. Well except people who complain about them I suppose! Shoots Self.

[Huguenot]

"they have clearly given a reason that their 4x4 has broken"

Yeah, and the dog ate their homework.

Now sat in swadesh and it all seems ok. People out drinking. Lets hope the yobs stay away!!

People complaining about yobs... pathetic.

[tomk]

Yes, I saw them moving the trailer at 7.30 on Sat morning. Drove it on to Gowlett Road, I presume to turn it around. The car was definitely working - though as it wasn't a 4x4 perhaps it doesn't count.

[woodrot]

If it was some cookwank outlet or wine bar on LL with a bit of pavement advertising, you would all be touching yersleves inappropriately in an mutual tugfest of smugness.

This offends you? Seriously? An advertising board? Offensive?

Its not just the trailer its the 3 or 4 motorcycles that surround it too. Southwark put in the nice paving in front of the shops and the constant use of these bikes will damage the paving slabs - maybe if PJs were asked to pay for a replacement they may think differently. I think what is most annoying is the attitude of the shop in that they seem not to care what local people think - they are a new welcome new business in that row and should be trying to engage with their local customers not alienate them. Maybe they should answer some of the points raised on here.
