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?

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
