Hi everyone,


I'm posting because I'm frustrated at having to avoid the Londis on east dulwich road because of the sexist, misogynist comments from the staff. I feel uncomfortable going in and my female friends echo my concerns. One member of staff often makes repeated comments as I move round the shop and I'm tired of either avoiding the shop altogether or having to steel myself against the comments before going in. I dont know what the solution is but I also dont know what else to do about this!

Suggestions welcome!

I'm so glad someone has finally raised this! I now actively avoid that shop due to the consistent unwanted sexual advances of the staff members. While there is one person in particular who is more aggressive, others have also made me feel uncomfortable.


I'm not sure what the solution is either however I do think the owners need to be made aware that they're losing customers due to their staff.

Hi there,

I registered with the forum today as this is my first time commenting. I hadnt realised before now that i had to register to make a comment but i have been a member of the east dulwich community for some time.


I am speaking as a young woman in the community and hoping to highlight my experiences in the shop and to find a way to make it a space that im comfortable in.


I'm glad to hear that other people have had a good experience with their families, but I've had a persistently bad experience as a young woman on my own on the shop and it's making me uncomfortable. I posted on the forum in the hope that something might change.

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
