Further to all your comments about me and Reggie being under dub house arrest, I had a mild vision of all of you lining the pavements of lordship lane, called to the afternoon prayer of dub, not concerned with the state of your teeth (although I do recommend the dentist near the dry cleaners, the man's an artist,) or with the latest shoes in Pied whatshername shop or wondering whether its right to buy a copy of Big Issue from the rosy faced east european woman outside the CoOp,

and instead is brought together by being together above our needs for things, above even our needs for our own families, taking joy as a real community, our community, east dulwich where we are all for one and one for all. Shalom.

I'm forced to listen and pay to all the Olympics shite and distruption that is coming our way -Sly and Reggie on the other hand are unsubsidised , local characters and I have yet to come across one of their al -fresco performances. When I do I will smile , wiggle in a self conscious way and take delight in the diversity of the area. At the moment I am forced to listen to a shite singing bird that's looking for a shag from 4-30 every morning. Where are the local cats when you need them.

There are many undoubtedly generous souls such as yourself ibilly, who uphold your conviction that community spirit is about indulging the pecadillos of local characters.


There are others who believe that community spirit would best be demonstrated by having the generosity not to shove your shite taste in music down other people's throats and then whinging like teenager when you can't ambush somebody else's local community event to do so.


I can see and understand both points of view - but only one of them involves not forcing yourself on other people.


I presume your own perspective stems from the conviction that you want to stick it to people you dont like? ;-)

    • Can bet the Co Op is nearing its exit soon. At those prices you might as well buy at waitrose!
    • I dont get complaining if nothing is broken? If you dont like the parcel service just buy your products elsewhere which ship with a different company. simple fix🤷‍♀️
    • It happened again tonight. This time a group of kids ( I hate saying that, because it makes them sound less intimidating than they are), threatened to throw a water bomb at me. When I dared them, they started lobbing them. Then they started saying they were going to kill my dog and one of them jumped over the fence of the Japanese Garden and took a running kick at my dog, who got out of the way. He jumped back over the fence, then came back, came within a meter of me and threw a water bomb really hard at me.  I can't be sure it was exactly the same crowd as last time, though I suspect the male ring leader could be.  The police came and were amazing - as was the park warden - and are fairly confident of the identity of one of them and think they may have tried to arrest him before.  There were maybe as many as 15 of them, aged 16-18, all Caucasian, girls and boys (girls being just as aggressive as the boys). The ring leader is a slight man, dark hair / eyes, possibly with facial hair about 5'6", petite, wearing an all-blue tracksuit.  So please be careful when you're in the park around 6.30 / 7pm. The local SNT have been informed.
