Hi guys,


Is anyone else really fed up with the emergency services speeding down LL with their sirens blazing? It really disrupts me when i am trying to do a nice spot of gardening at this time of year.


Say we get a petition together, asking that Police vehicles turn down their siren when passing through our utopian neighbourhood, and we march to the nearest Police station (Peckham?) to hand deliver it and make it clear we will not stand by and have our peace and quiet ruined?

Totally agree ? people should just stop having all these intentional accidents, plus I'm sure all those in critical condition will gladly suffer a longer wait, to ensure no one gets disturbed by the emergency services whilst tending to their geraniums. I'll start marching right away ??see you there.

Is this a real opinion, or one just to stir the pot.

Either way, it makes zero sense

I have partial sympathy with the op as there is absolutely no reason for sirens to be as loud as they are in this country. They could be far quieter and still achieve the same result. No other country tolerates such fearsome noise on their emergency vehicles - here the intention seems to be to frighten the life out of people which doesn't help motorists to make quick, intelligent decisions. It induces panic and that doesn't help anyone. I'm less concerned about its effect on gardeners though.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying.
