Garden wall damage by dangerous HIT and RUN driver. On Friday 16th at approx. 2.30 pm a corner of our Belleneden Rd front garden wall was knocked down by a grey couple.

A neigbour saw the tail end of the incident and reports that there were to people in the front of the car, one of whom was looking very distraught.Unfortunately the neighbour was unable to get the Registration no.


The grey car involved has to have been seriously damaged as the end pier was strenthened with metal


If you have very recently noticed a badly damaged grey coupe parked/abandoned could you please let me know, together with it@ Reg. No,


This was an act of very dangerous driving - someone cd have been badly hurt - the driver needs to be found

I have a tremor and find it impossible to put location of incident, however it happened Lidl's end of Bellenden Rd. The car cd be anywhere.


If you are fairly local did your CTV pick anything up of the getaway?


I wd be grateful if you wd circulate ..Thank you.

Hi there - I would try the shops near you as quite a few have external CCTV nowadays. Given you know the direction the car drove off and the exact time it happened I reckon you stand a good chance of catching the driver on camera.


Good luck!

Agreed, but do it soon as they may not keep the recording very long.


Good luck from me too!

thanx but donyt know which direction car wentin..we are in a 1 way system tho'.

Someone had done a google view of the area showing CCTV - gonna try those.

One on a lamp post so must be a council one? at a Junction that looks promising. cameras foccused on their shp front???

Wd still ask further afield as well as locally that if any one saw/ sees a badly damaged grey couple after 3.oo pm any where that they take a note of reg. no.

Thanks for ur input.

Wasn't far from two drivers racing each other yesterday on Norwood Road, mid evening. Never seen anything like it in London, well over 70mph and cms apart from each other and a parked van that I instinctively hid behind with my pushbike. But not practicing what I preach I have not yet reported it as it happened so fast I got no make, model of number plates. Racing on the public road is an offence.

Southwark Council has a CCTV manager. Try the main switchboard

Ah - you have seen the damage.

The speed bump has only just been er elongated... coupe must still have been going very fast.

Yep, Pier /gate post with tiling on it has steel re-inforcing so car must have been badly damaged and going far too fast. A Trevor on here kindly google mapped and found CCT cameras, have tried the council as one of thiers must have picked up it up - automated reply said to forward it to XXXX.. Police not being very helpful. I can't see how car can have got out of local area with out being caught by a camera. Have given up now, and handed whole thing over to insurance co. much as I woul like the driver to be punished for driving so dangerously

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
