emser Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Hello?A woman who came into our back garden yesterday (east Dulwich Road) She came in through the back gardens of the houses next to us, where she appeared to be looking for something/ scouting the place out, and was asking if we needed our garden done by her partner. She appeared to be on drugs and very hyper. She told us she was 39, and then later 49. She was trying to look into our flat and asking if we had a computer, did I want my hair done etc. We were having our tea in the garden and she stayed for about 20 minutes talking to us. We (myself and partner) felt very uneasy around her. We made our excuses and went inside.Later we went for a walk in Goose Green and saw her rummaging through peoples bins on east Dulwich road. She was taking the rubbish into the park and going through it. She then went over to two guys sitting in the park on a bench who were drinking. These guys too also looked like they may have been on drugs. She told us that she is living in 110 east Dulwich road (SE22 9AT) Does anyone know anything about this house?

Jenjeroo Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Was she wearing lots of pink? I saw a rather dodgy looking lady walking up and down upland road last night. Hanging around the corners. We should report this to the local police.

emser Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 She was wearing a Navy and yellow tracksuit. Brown hair tied up. I have reported it to the link here? https://secure.met.police.uk/saferneighbourhoods/index_sn.php?rid=2515 The east Dulwich neighbourhood police. Maybe you could do the same. I know there are few people like this in that house in East Dulwich road. I know they have to go somewhere, but it doesn?t sit east with me, such a nice area, a shame to feel so unsafe.

rgutsell Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 HiyaBy "Dodgy" do you mean a person with a Mental health disorder or personality "disorder" ?Sounds like she wasn't being threatening, just being rather different.

Nicholas Spears Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 To help me avoid causing offence in potential future posts, can you give me some guidance on how to accurately diagnose a mental health or personality disorder on the basis of 20 minutes awkward conversation with a hyperactive intruder in the back garden?Am sure you'll be able to help rgutsell, as you seem able to diagnose someone after just reading a post on the forum...

Seems important to mention race on here when the miscreant is black . Just asking, like.

And you post things like this?I genuinely was concerned this woman was a prostitute. I was merely pointing out her appearance to see if it was the same woman.

Jeez.Be fair, she was also "hanging around the corners" - this is a 'hanging' offence for some of the curtain twitchers around here...

buddug Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 This woman that Emser is talking about actually came into her back garden through other people's back garden, for God's sake. I would have been somewhat freaked out too. And what's more, Emser was kind enough to spend 20 minutes talking to her before making her excuses and going inside. I'd have fled indoors immediately and called the police. What's wrong with some of you?Mind you, the post about the Lady in Pink was asking for trouble...

wadeylady001 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Hang on, didn't the curtain twitching comment refer to the case of the woman in pink who was walking up and down a road rather than the intruder in the garden? Keep up everyone or you'll be lost by episode three.

buddug Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I was keeping up, actually (although often I don't!) - that's why I said "this woman that Emser is talking about..." to distinguish her from the Woman in Pink, who has nothing to do with the original poster's story. And I just thought we should return to that, out of respect for Emser's experience, if nothing else.By the way, isn't it hot again!

Jeremy Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 emser - sounds like a very unnerving experience, but it seems you handled it pretty well. Definitely worth reporting to the police.Some of the idiotic posters on here are almost beyond belief.

Alan Medic Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I'm curious how the word 'mate' can mean so many things. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/23639-dodgy-woman-east-dulwich-road/#findComment-547712 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you watch constant reruns of Love Thy Neighbour? I thought ?chip on the shoulder? went out with bell bottoms & flares.I hate that term, it?s only ever used by racists or the magnificently ignorant.Which are you?

It has no racist connotations and to label someone a racist or "magnificently ignorant" just because you don't like the words they use to express themselves is ignorant.

buddug Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Chic and northlondoner, you're behaving like trolls. Why have you and others decided to hijack this thread?

LolI'm with you, baggie. It's better than a soap opera. I live in CSI Catford where we've had a pool of blood in the stairwell for the past 4 days. I LOVE checking into Midsomer Dulwich for a change of scenery.
