Dog excrement!

[mockney piers]

I was wandering down champion hill to Denmark Hill this morning and a very well dressed gentleman in his late 50s was walking two of those yappy wandering balls of cotton wool (small dogs that crush men's spirits as my friend calls them), fat miniature poodle type things (i'm not that good on breeds) and they both laid cables and he happily wandered off. I was late for my train otherwise would have had words as he wasn't scary, but shows it's all sorts that do it.

I politely asked a gentleman of advancing years if he would pick up his dogs ,ahem ,cables as they had parked them right outside the gates of Goodrich School. I gently (yes gently dear readers ) pointed out that the school had 700 pupils and look ,some of them were approaching back from an outing this very minute.........

" Ive had a dog for 50 years and i'm not going to start picking it up now" (paraphrase)

"YOU ARE AN IGNORANT OLD MAN THEN" (not very gently)

Exit stage left and right

Well done that Clare! Woot woot!! >:D<

Honestly - he shouldn't be allowed to have a dog the silly old g*t! Mockney, as time waits for no man, you are excused, and fractionater; discretion is the better part of valour, so you get off too!

I have a real bee in my bonnet about dog poo - it is vile (and like I said, if I can manage to scrape it up (*gag*) anyone can!) [spymum changes into her (fetching) cape and tights].

The reason that tree on Melbourne Grove has No Dog Mess signs all over it is because it is outside the house of a family with a disabled child who is wheelchair bound. I imagine it's pretty unpleasant having faeces on a wheelchair so as you can imagine they're pretty active in trying to stop it.

I think next time I will take pictures of the offending evidence and the owners on my phone, and post them on the site!

perhaps if we can all do this we could have a "Hall of Shame" section on this site where local residents who mess up ED are named and shamed...publicly!

[blinder999]

Snap the cyclists on the pavement too, print out the pics on A4 and set up a darts game at the Goose Green Fair. You'll make a fortune.

[mockney piers]

Sounds like a good idea as it goes. Mind you camera phone pictures especially at any distance tend to be about as useful as post office cctv stills.

[fractionater]

maybe we should just have a general board in the ED forum called "The ED Hall of Shame", where we can all report incidents, with or without evidence, for all kinds of "shamefull" local incidents!

Who is the system administrator that can set this up?

[mockney piers]

That'll be administrator, I guess with a name like that it was destiny ;)

[Administrator]

Indeed, it is I, the Administrator who can set this up, however creating a section for naming and shaming people without evidence isn't something we like the idea of. You can do so on your own thread but please have evidence to back up your statement as we would rather not get involved in legal issues if we can help it.

[fractionater]

No probs - howver the "evidence" could make unpleasent viewing.

I will set up a thread when I catch my first "victim"!

[georgia]

Er.. why would anyone want to look at pics of dog s**t

[capt_birdseye]

Why indeed. Probably the same people who felt the need to set up ratemypoo.com

[mockney piers]

I don't even want to know how you know that captain.

Still, on the theory that there's a group for pretty much everything on flickr, there is, rather disturbingly a dogs pooing group.

This world is one strange place.

I wonder what the Mail would have to say about that?

[capt_birdseye]

Errr, a friend of a friend told me about it. Needless to say the link is NOT SAFE FOR WORK (for those of you who can't resist typing it into your browsers!).

[Keef]

Excellent idea!!! >:D<

Not looking at the poo, but shaming the owners...

[Mark]

I just saw Clarence (the dog from the Bishop) have a sh*t on Goose Green and the person who was walking him, bald bloke wearing shorts, just left it there, steaming away about 6ft from a dog pooh bin. New thread

I think fractionater has hit the nail on the head...most of us have mobile phones....take a pic and put on the web ..a hall of shame for these selfish people...All parks should have dog exercising areas like the one on Dog Kennel Hill...my poor 3 year old can run merrily across on our way to Sainsburys without stepping in a pile of turd...maybe we should pick up for them and follow them home and post through there letter boxes or on there doorsteps and see how they like it!!!

Not sure if this still stands, but in Dulwich park it used to be that the perimeter was the dog running part, and the "inside" ie. within the sandy horse track was a strictly on leads area.

Dog excrement, what about the human stuff?

On the pavement at the start of Upland Road this morning, a pile of human looking poo with associated toilet paper, nice.

A couple of months ago in exactly the same spot (this is opposite the Garden Centre) were some poo encrusted purple pants.

Could this have something to do with the secret police HQ? Someone waging a faeces based vendetta against our boys in plain clothes?

[fractionater]

I'd blame the Pikey's from Peckham for that!
