trentk69 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Yep, he was at it again late last night - around 11.30pm. Pretty annoying if you ask me - maybe I am getting a bit touchy, but he was at it all weekend as well.

AcedOut Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Sounds like he needs to spend some time in a vacuum chamber. That should make the whistling stop ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2969-whistling-man/page/2/#findComment-106892 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dulwich_ Park_ Fairy Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 There's nothing harmless about this bloke, he's a nuisance and he's getting more and more anti-social by the month.

SteveT Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Why can't we sell these useless loafers into slavery, he wouldn't have so much whistle in him if he was doing some real work.

sweetgirl Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 its not his whistling, its the way he intimidates people!! & yes he sure does! i have been on the recieving end of it & i can assure you me & my female friend weren't impressed, & it was late one evening whilst we were waiting for a bus, (outside the new gym on lordship lane).i'll tell you what though, he doesn't do it to me anymore, quite simply because he knows my boyfriend who has put him in his place, funny enough that happened well before i met him!!!!!!!he now says hello to my boyfriend everytime he sees him, only because he knows he cant intimidate him!

seanmlow Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 I think things could be a lot worse than a whistling man. He often pops into my office on LL and has a chat. I, personally, think he is harmless. I would be more scared to stumble across the Whately Road characters...

Wimpole Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Whistling Man is called Dean I think. Just say "Alright Dean" and he is ok. I don't think anyone can say he is violent unless they have good reason.Anyway - as of 6.50pm tonight he is currently standing by the Rye Hotel in a camo hoodie and a white baseball cap looking pretty sharp. He has his earphones in, is digging the beat and just gave the thumbs up to a bus driver.Until he beats me up, I like him. A lot.

I can't be sure but think I've encountered whistling man causing trouble in Gold Lee before complaining about the prawn crackers - he was incredibly agressive and threatening towards the owner and called the police himself (stating the prawn crackers had been too hard) who thankfully came quickly and calmed him, moving him on.You seem to be incredibly protective of your sister - at least respect similar feelings others may have too.

bawdy-nan Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I can see that the whistling and unpredicatable behaviour can feel annoying and threatening and the leery shouting of the people being singled out in Whately Road likewise.I have sympathy with the people who feel diretcly threatened by the proximity of unruly behaviour I can see that having to avoid stretches of your own road for fear of abuse would be very stressful.I'm interested and a little disturbed by the vehemence of some people's reactions to these people. I've come across the residents of WR once or twice on the bus and they are loud and, it seemed to me, not particularly well equipped to negotiate their way through the world.The clubbing together to set clear distinctions between "us" and "them" on this forum isn't suprising, I suppose. People are frightened by the idea that they might slip out of their lives and into the underclass through illness or ill-luck, but I find the shrill assertions against the anti-social behaviour of these outsiders a bit much. Anti-social behaviour isn't the preserve of misfits and the mentally disturbed as this weekends middle-class twatfest on the tube indicated. I wonder if a horde of mad asbo wielding benefits claimants had swarmed onto the circle line with cans of special brew there might have been more of an outcry.

If it happens every day and close to home you tend to find the fear and anger ratchets up until you will become permanentlyon edge - waiting for the next disturbance.I'm not at that stage yet but the whistler loves to stand just outside - I'm temptedto throw pistachio nuts at him from the 4th floor.

Bubblez Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Yeah, Dean is much less threatening then the watley road people, I've been shouted abuse at by them, whereas dean tends to just whistle at women, or just whistle in general.

bawdy-nan Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 its not as it goes - I have been known to be bawdy though I am not, as yet, a nanI don't think people should "learn a lesson" from being attacked on the street. People with mental health problems are very likely to be physically attacked - sometimes because they are "annoying".I find this situation horrific and I am very shocked by sweet girl's attitude.
