Hi all,

Just had a knock on the door from a friendly guy down from Newcastle T&D Fisheries selling fish. He says they're down every 12 weeks selling fresh fish in bulk to freeze - minimum 30 packets...

If these guys do come down every 12 weeks then I guess they are legit. Has anyone bought fish from them before? I've heard stories of scammers selling bad fish door to door.

I really hope they're legit, and not trying to take advantage of people during covid who are stuck at home without being able to get out to shop.

Any intel much appreciated!

Thanks

They have been coming to the area for years rain or shine - seems a long journey to sell the freshest of the fresh. And friendly enough but 30 packets is a lot of fish to freeze, unless you can eat it all very quickly!

      Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.

      https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger

      Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.

      It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
