I was on 37 bus saturday 7pmish or bit later when at Herne Hill it got totally stuck and then diverted in mayhem of police vans, cars and sirens and fast moving big 'groups' of young men. I'd assumed it was a firework up a sheep's bum incident but now it all mkes sense.

Was Keef the leader of the gang causing the disturbance then? >:D<

I just don't see how anyone can be bothered with violence after a smoke. I can barely be arsed to stand up!

ha ha, "conspicuously flash clothes". What the hell?


I remember my mate getting stopped at gun point by armed police, the full hands on head, lie down, guns pointed at him sort.

His crime, he'd dampened a passer by with one of these while doing a 'drive-by' at his mate at 2 miles an hour.


I dread to think how that story grew in the retelling by witnesses.


"..he'd just mowed down an old lady and some schoolchildren crossing the road with his AK47. I think he was on crack you know, if you'd seen his eyes..."

surely lambeth country fair (also a regular fave with us at feelgood towers) gives away in the title that all wildlife shall be on show...just trying to make light here. before the PC brigade hit i'm having a laugh.


a friend who is not used to these parts of the world and has heard of the perils of south london of course had to be stuck on the 37 caught in the middle of the riot. what i love is that she describes how all the people on the bus were screaming at the driver to "f**king get up on the pavement and drive away, FAST".

B..B.. But dc, I don't understand...?


Surely the story of the three gangs armed to the teeth, all with knives having a full on brawl outside Cafe Prov and getting broken-up by riot police would have been of more interest to the South London Press than the ferret racing?

Jocelyn, it seems that certain other forumities disbelieve us about the goings on on Half Moon Lane last Saturday night.

Next time you feel like coming onto the forum to tell others about an experience you witnessed or indeed had, best to keep it to yourself. For Gosh and bother, they would rather hear about the more genteel, more 'worthy' happenings in the leafy borough that is our East Dulwich

IT GETS WORSE


This from the urban75 forum:


There was some trouble on saturday as well, in herne hill , police chasing about 60 youths down half moon lane, shops steamed and raided, pretty terrifying by all accounts. we have graffiti daubed around the area and sainsbury had a door kicked in and glass smashed. knives were found in the half moon pub apparrently.


Will someone please call the South London Press IMMEDIATELY - they have missed a trick here, surely..?

      WARNING . Please feed the birds in your garden

      By Angelina · Posted

      Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.

      WARNING . Please feed the birds in your garden

      Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.

      Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou

      Police Incident outside Rose Fish/Parade East Dulwich Roas

      I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
