Would you please all keep a look out for Mr Pat Connelly, 83, missing from Nunhead since 1 pm Thursday, 7 June.


He is white, about 5'6", has white hair, though mostly bald. He has a strong Irish accent. He has slightly protruding ears. Narrow, slightly pointed nose. Very defined cheek bones. Slender build.


He was probably wearing a cap and a zip-up, dark coloured jacket (not anorak) was also wearing his slippers. He wears gold-rimmed glasses.


Peckham Police Station are co-ordinating the search, so please call them if you have any information.


He is on medication for a heart condition and does not have this with him.


He is known to visit Nunhead Cemetery often, so if you are a dog walker, please keep a special look out.


Other known occasional haunts are St Thomas' Church, Nunhead, Irish shop on Lordship Lane, cafes and shops in Nunhead, and the Southbank near Waterloo.


Many thanks.

Have you informed Social Services Out of Hours Team? he may already be known to Social Services, but having done

out of hours work, I have experienced general public ringing through with concerns about vulnerable people, specially if they are unable to give details of name and address. Check out with A& E Kings and Lewisham Hospitals

( you probably have already done this) Southwark Social Services often get circulated photos of 'missing people'

Hope he is found safe and well

Message from on of his grandsons:


Hi, I am very greatful for all your kind words and effort to help us find our grandad, dad, great grandfather, brother, friend and part of the community.


We have had a little bit of a lead where he has been spotted in Waterloo yesterday morning at 3am. We have still not caught up with him even though we have been out looking 23hours a day.


We are having a meet at platform 15 in Waterloo train station at 2pm today (10 June) with flyers with the police, at the moment we have good number however the more the merrier.


The police have also not ruled out the local area which we will also keep searching, We will be briefed with the police very soon on the local areas


Once again i thank you all for your kind words, messages and great community spirit. I will keep you all posted and hope we find Grandad soon

I'm so sorry to hear of your missing grandad.

You've probably done this already: put posters up at all his usual haunts/local train stations/bus stops/shops (even ones that he doesn't use but lots of people do - Sainsburys DKH/co-op Lordship Lane etc.

I do hope you have some good news soon, thinking of you.

    • Thanks for stating the bleeding obvious
    • Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄
    • Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.  
    • Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
