To the dog walkers on Henslowe Road a plea....


If your dog poos on the road or the pavement, please please clear it up and put it in the bin.

Henslowe Road seems to have become an obstacle course dodging different shapes, sizes and colours of dog faeces. It's disgusting and quite frankly annoying, not to mention a health hazard.


Thank you.

Maybe. I'm just not sure what a councillor can do.

There are sprayed signs all over the pavement saying 'Bag it & Bin It'.

At the end of the day, we all have to be responsible for our streets and that means clearing up our dogs poo. It's the main reason why I haven't got a dog, can't handle the smell of the poo!!

Has anybody else suffered the persistent and insidious dropping of turds (which I hope are canine in origin...) right outside their gates, day after day?


I'm starting to get paranoid here in Oakhurst Grove that I'm getting faecal revenge for some minor misdemeanour of yore (perhaps involving the erroneous commandeering of a wheelie bin? Or worse?) I'm rapidly losing zeal for having to hose the buggy's wheels down after the second time in a week... Is it illegal to Taser a straining dog/owner as the pooch is mid-poo?

Hi Susierose


I am a Marmora Road resident and also sick of the dog poo, there is a staffy that is often not on the lead, it pood in my front garden once, I'm sure the owners were aware but just carried on walking by, I had to clean it up. Are you also sick of the bins on the pavement, that is my pet hate at the moment, hate the fact that I am beginning to sound like Victor Meldrew!

Oh glad I'e found this thread - I've just started one in the lounge offering ?10,000 for the invention of a device which would detonate shitting dogs and and an extra 10K for a machine which would cause the shit to materialise instantly in the living room of the owner. Hopefully on the sofa.

The hard ones are way easier to pick up. More fibre in his/her diet methinks

It's been said many times before, but since dogs defecate up to four times a day all you need is one rogue owner and the surrounding streets will quite quickly get filled with turds, giving the impression that there are lots of lazy owners about.


ED is not overwhelmed with dog owners that do not pick up, the vast majority do.


Perhaps the offlead Staffy needs tracing to the owner and a quiet word might be in order. Dogs offlead on our streets are a bad thing; the type of owner who can't even be bothered to put their dog on a lead may also be too lazy to pick up.

Sadly cats (or perhaps their owners) cannot assume entitlement to a place atop a pedestal on this one. I am forever removing cat turds from my flower beds. I accept that a dog owner may (I cannot speak from experience as I don't own either) have more control over where their dog craps and what happens to the dog's egg afterwards.

    • At present several large retailers such as Co-op, Tesco, Waitrose, John Lewis, and Next use a cloud-based facial recognition system that gives instant alerts to the entry on the premises of known shoplifters.  Around £19 million incidents of retail theft (some with attacks on staff) occur ever year in the UK amounting in value to £2.6 Billion in value, involving 41,000 known offenders. Shoplifting adds to the retailer's costs and this is passed on eventually to honest shoppers, isn't there a case for F.R. to become mandatory at all retailers?
    • Nasty piece of work. Targets locations with a healthy independent presence and farmers’ markets; typical vampire capitalism. Great supporter of a Brexit too. All good reasons to go elsewhere, preferably small independent., 
    • Hi, oglander , Congratulations on your soon-to-arrive little lion - how exciting! It's always lovely to hear someone taking the adoption route (shelters are having a major crisis at the moment!). I've been in business for 15 years & can say with certainty that most cat owners in Dulwich have catflaps so, not only are they easy to have installed, but you shouldn't find yourself short of helping hands on these local forums. A catflap is a brilliant way to keep your little lion safely in overnight as well as generally keeping track of their comings & goings. I'd be happy to walk you through the set up once you've chosen your model (SureFlap & PetSafe are two popular brands). I'm sure the rescue has already advised, but just in case they haven't, it'll be very important to keep your newly adopted cat housebound for the first 2 weeks to familiarise themselves with their new home. Once they've scent-mapped the house, you can gradually begin letting them out to explore & scent-map the garden. Exciting times! x
    • Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks
