Ive lived in Dulwich fo 16 years now, admitidly ive kept a low profile, and I cant beleive what im hearing. Its ridonkulous, surley there is more to life than the shenanagins that gets talked about on this forum, dont get me wrong, I love a bit of gossip but its a bit like stepford round here, fishwife central more like, its hilarious. I know some of you are very bright, I know some of you are highly educated, and its a deadcert that some of you haunt the coridors of power, however I have never in my life experienced anything like this place. Im not being confrontational in anyway, please forgive my direct language, its just I feel your energies could be directed into a much more bennifical and productive pastime. If you organized you could end up running the country.
Mikecg, it's entirely my fault. I wasn't trying to be confrontational, I didn't know about the existence of the West Dulwich Forum until today, but I didn't think I'd come across a thread like that. I'm relatively new to Dulwich, and I love the fact that forums like this are there, so any newcomers can get to know people. Regardless of whether they're east/west/south or north.
No disrespect, Im quite new to this forum, and I did not anounce my arrival, and you dont have to listen to my ramblings its just there is a them and us kind of mentality on many different fronts, from how close you live to peckham to who owns what, well almost. Well I am a bloke.

maybe they meant 'abceses' but then they would be an 's' short wouldn't they???


What a hi-bl**dy-larious post

"its just I feel your energies could be directed into a much more bennifical and productive pastime. If you organized you could end up running the country"


This is a form of stress relief. We do actually run the country in our day jobs.


There is nothing more productive than talking b@llocks. We do it well.

I hate I hate I hate ...

But no.. I also hate any accusations of a "them and us" - it suggests a homogenous "us" or "them" which a reading of anythread makes clear doesn't exist - the forum is often accused of arguing about anything it possibly can.. arguing can't exist without differing opinions so how can it be "us and them"


Plus... mikecg has assimilated quite seamlessly into the forum - ach I just don't get it. There are SOME people who don't like.. say... peckham. This does not mean the EAST DULWICH FORUM doesn't like Peckham and ANYONE WHO DISAGREES is wrong. I love Peckham... so there. Some others on here don't. What are ya gonna do huh?

It isn't one of the more eloquent posts on here is it?


So be it. I often struggle with this particular point anyway. I remember quids mentioning the stepford word before and giving him a right old ear-bashing. He took it well

Thing is Sean,


It's a perception, that's all it is, of some of the types of people. not everybody is like that here I know that, one of my first experiences here was a conversation with DM, not that thats a bad thing, However after my encounter I found that I am not alone in my opinion of the type of person she is, Harmless really I suppose, it's all a bit of an act, an alter ego perhaps. You cant take it too seriousley. There are others around, but that's what makes a place like this great don't ya think's.

    • Another recommendation for Oddbods. As proof of our satisfaction we've asked them to return for some more jobs, which is sign we were happy with their work
    • Most of the groceries shops in Lordship Lane have a security presence…curious thing is I and another woman recently saw a shop lifter lift and not pay for a couple of packet of steaks, veg and bottle of wine..  Literally walked Pat the tills, one member of staff and security guard despite someone else going in front by a few people and mentioning person in question! I have to say, speechless and admired their bravado - I would not have the guts and knowing my luck, if I accidentally didn’t put something tru the till despite receipt would prob get stopped! Yes, worked with families, homeless and other people who were struggling for food so I do understand why they do it.. sad when you think about it, that in this day and age, all sorts of c people need assistance and help from community in general, food banks, olio etc….
    • Just not keen to have all these  things  in my body… having said  that, thinking about Covid again as need to come to London to two hospitals for poss overnight stays.
