I do not live in the Marmora catchment area but did have the same problem about two years ago. Someone repeatedly allowing their dog to foul practically outside the gate, Myself, my children, husband, bikes were all victims. I eventually rang the council who told me that there was a dedicated pooper scooper number which I rang everytime the poo arrived. They dutifully came and scooped ....the problem miraculously disappeared after a concentrated three week campaign. Ring the council and ask if this service still exists. I fortunately have not had the problem since. But then I live in Nunhead!

I live on a path the leads a few yards off the main road to my gate. Last summer there was a guy who would walk his dog down off the main road onto my path almost every morning to let it relieve itself. He probably thought this was better than letting it foul the main pavement but as it was outside my garden gate I was not too pleased. So what I did was just go out one morning and stand at the gate. As he came down I gave him a smile and a nod and stood watching him. He looked uncomfortable for few moments and then buggered off. I haven?t seen him since.


Having said that I went out this morning and there was an unspeakable pile heap next to the bins. I may give this poo hotline that the council have a call.

Sing to the tune of Ghostbusters:


If there's somethin' brown in your neighborhood

Who ya gonna call (Poobusters)

If it's somethin' that, looks like a Walnut Whip

Who ya gonna call (Poobusters)


I ain't afraid a no shite

I ain't afraid a no turds

If you're steppin' on poo, on Marmora Road,

Who can you call (Poobusters)

Ruined yer shoes on Rover's load,

Oh who ya gonna call (Poobusters)

I ain't afraid a no shite

I ain't afraid a no turds

    • That's great you have the cat! Sorry to interfere, and feel free to ignore this, but it might not be a great idea to post your mobile number on a public forum? You can message the owner on the forum via a private message.
    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
