Did anyone else encounter two men behaving oddly in the Goodrich Road / Friern Road area last night around 10pm?


I was walking home from work along Goodrich Road around 10pm. An Afro-Carribean man wearing track suit bottoms and a hoodie (hood pulled up) was walking towards me. Another man of the same description was parallel to him on the opposite side of the street.


I was speaking on my mobile phone and I walked into the middle of the road to avoid the man nearest me. Both men passed me by, but, when I looked over my shoulder, I saw both men had turned around and were walking straight toward me.


I walked up the driveway of a nearby house. This deterred them and they walked off down Friern Road.


When I got home I reported this to the police in case the two men targeted anyone else. The police were round within 5-10 minutes and then went out looking for the men but I'm guessing it was too late.


I wondered if anyone else had a similar experience?

I had something similar in that stretch about 18mths ago - It was winter and dark although much earlier. I was pushing a double buggy with a small baby and toddler in and ended up walking in the middle of the road as I didn't feel comfortable - I think I had briefly been on the phone to say I was en route home!

Why would OS7 prevent this?

    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
    • Threads that devolve like this should be moved to the Lounge, so the 'comedy' can continue in an appropriate vacuum.
