The Barclays Cash point seems to be targeted frequently. Not sure which machine it is.


I spoke to a rep at Barclays Lordship Lane yesterday.

Evidently Barclays Bank on Rye Lane is open on Saturdays as a safer option if you are out and about in Peckham.

Hi Mummali


I thought as much. I did think the new slots were tamper-proof.

I never use the machines on the street anymore.


I'm out and about on L.L. everyday and use the machines inside the bank.


Hope you were able to cancel your card before it was used by the scammers.

It can be a real hassle sorting these thing out.

Download the Barclays App


You can check all your Barclay Accounts and Barclay Card and add other accounts.


You can transfer money between accounts. Pay your Barclay Card


But best of all .. You can put a Temp block on your Debit card. Handy if you have mislaid it and think its lost.


Its also Very easy to use..

So - Peckham is now safe to draw out cash - pleased that you've changed your tune!

Yes cancelled the card immediately and yes there was someone hanging around, a little way away but he could easily see what was happening. He may have been just genuinely loitering with no ulterior motive, but I suspect not. Am wondering whether Barclays have cctv footage of that area, but can find out on Monday.

Nothing to do with it being Peckham.

Any opportunity to draw cash from Machine inside the bank is always going to be safer.

Cannot see such machines having devices fitted to them.

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
