Negative but true, Peckham was/is nasty and is East Dulwich is far from "lovely". I also owned a shop in Peckham for 7 years which simply reinforced my belief the place was a hole.

What's your point?


"Dulwich Deanery

Rev Canon Charles Richardson

The parishes of this small Deanery, stretching from South Peckham to beyond Dulwich Village

Even if at one time, East Dulwich stretched in to what is now Peckham, boundaries change. You are the only person in 2013 that uses CofE Parishes to define borders.


SE15 is Peckham. Everyone except for you basically gets that. You shouldn't be ashamed John, embrace your Peckham roots!

Parkdrive, do you really think so? I honestly think East Dulwich is lovely! Out of interest, why do you think otherwise? And don't you think there are some nice bits of Peckham? What were your experiences of owning a shop there?

    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
