For my road, a couple of the residents took the initiative of setting up a WhatsApp group and then dropping a note through the door of every house in the road giving the details and inviting them to join.


Not everybody did, but they had the opportunity to.


People moving into the road since then were also contacted.


So if nobody has done that in Friern Road, I guess you could always start a group yourself?


I've found ours very useful for sharing information.

Yes there is a very active WhatsApp group for Friern Road - if you would like to send me (via DM) your name and phone number, I'll gladly add you. Maybe send me your house number too (if you wish of course) so I can introduce you properly to your neighbours as it's a very long road! Ian

Actually ms9's private message to me was not a reply to hirstian sent to me in error, but thanks for your interest 🙄

I think it relates to the fact that the article is regarding a Friern Road resident who has been jailed for handbag theft after being traced by CCTV.


Was this covered in your Whatsapp group? If not, why not?

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️

      Nope, I'd just get on with my day and forget about it. And I wouldn't report them on the basis that they might spill my coffee in the future.  However the OP seems to think that this young woman is deliberately pushing her bell, slamming her gate etc, having repeatedly been asked not to. I'd wager the woman is a bit pee'd off and there's a bit of a stand-off going on. Best course of action is to go out, take the parcel, smile sweetly, say hello, tell her you hope she's having a nice day / staying cool etc, in a way that comes across as genuine and not pass-agg,  and to let it diffuse. Might find it calms down a bit.  But I like the girl hate the idea of her being denigrated on here when she works so hard.

      So of you're in a coffee shop and the barista is rude to you you wouldn't complain as long as you had received your coffee?

      OP, you've got to relax a bit. Multidrop delivery is a total nightmare and the delivery drivers are woefully underpaid. We as a society all want to order stuff online and for it to be delivered quickly and cheaply. The square gets circled by allowing companies like Evri to have sham contracting arrangements. None of this is your fault OP but the delivery person is just trying to get through their workload as quickly as possible. Delivery is not, historically, an industry with large profit margins. “The only way it can be profitable is if you underpay the person who is the courier, by not treating them as an employee, by not paying taxes, by not paying their insurance, by refusing to give them sick pay or cover them if they have an accident or train them,” says Prof Annabelle Gawer, the director of the Centre of Digital Economy at the University of Surrey. “That is where the ‘savings’ are coming from.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/01/the-hidden-life-of-a-courier-13-hour-days-rude-customers-and-big-dreams
