I was forwarded this message from my running club. I don't want to start a debate or anything, I just want to let other runners know. Just be aware and be sensible, remove your headphones if you're in isolated areas, my running club has a "no headphone" policy even in groups.



We have been informed by the park management of the below


"There was an assault on a female jogger in Dulwich Park yesterday (21st) by Roseberry lodge. It happened around 2.30 pm. The Lady was dragged towards the bushes by Lordship Lane estate. Luckily she put up a fight and got away. The attacker ran off, possibly leaving via Fireman's alley or court Lane"


Whilst we do not want to frighten any of you we thought it appropriate to let you all know and to remind you that whenever possible always run with another person especially when running round the joggers loop or through the forest adjacent to Cox's walk

Thank you for posting this. It is really shocking and I hope the poor lady is okay.

I often run in Dulwich Park and wouldn't ever think you'd be at risk during the day. I think those who post about these crimes are doing us a favour by warning people and not trying to start debates as often seems to happen on the forum.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying. From the very beginning through to the end Bob was responsive, helpful and demonstrated his knowledge. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will defiantly be using Bob again and would thoroughly recommend him! His details are... www.geekelectrics.co.uk 07453 407 226 [email protected]
    • I want to try that and also the granary loaf. Used to get a good granary loaf from the bakery that was in Herne Hill a long time ago.  Think they are somewhere In the vicinity of Coulsdon now. They used to make the hamburger buns for the Meatwagon/Meatliquor people.
