er......when you say chased you, do you mean you were running with your buggy and he was sprinting after you? 3 streets so what just outside the palmerston ? he left his shop un-attended or do you think he locked up first ? it just gets weirder and wierder, when you say fellow resident do mean the 2.8 miles of lordship lane or do you mean next door ? .............really nob-jockey !

AFN, I'm unsure of your motivation on this one - are you really suggesting that the many individuals who've had unfortunate experiences with this chap are making it up? What possible reason could they have?


Either way, differing opinions doesn't mean we should resort to name-calling does it? Have a cup of camomile.

Sorry to interject but whats a "Nob-jockey" please?..Is it a term appertaining to East Dulwich and its immediate environs or can one be a "Nob-jockey" further afield?

What does one have to do/be to become qualified or classified as a "Nob-jockey"(?)

I too have had an odd Fabric experience. I went in to by some muslin for my windows. The owner's father (I think it was) came in, looked me up and down and while looking at me said something about me in Russian or some such language to the owner. I don't think it was complimentary and I felt really humiliated. I haven't been back since. Fabric - you need to sharpen up your customer service pronto.

You,quite rightly,won't be russian back then!:))

Slummymummy - I think it's Turkish you heard, I seem to remember him saying he was originally from Turkey ?


Administrator - Did you change my last post to include ****? Other people have used the phrase (see above), but perhaps because I used all caps and it was more offensive? If so, apologies. Sentiment is still the same.

Yes. I do not usually attend threads in the Lounge but this one is close to becoming offensive towards an individual. Please be careful otherwise I will have to lock the thread, or maybe even remove it.

We cannot always tell if something is offensive especially in the Lounge area. As stated in the terms of use of the site, if you feel that something is offensive please notify us by reporting the message and we will act accordingly.

Administrator, why was my post considered offensive? I simply relayed my own personal experience - I certainly wasn't rude or unpleasant towards any other forum user.

I would have thought another forum user hurling childish names such as 'nob-jockey' is far more offensive.


I'm pretty cheesed off.

Surely you are having a laugh ????? you used the terms, Tool, Tosser, i could go on, and it was very specific to an individual.


I made an ironic statment about name calling to no-one imparticular and anyway as far as anyone else is concerned you are just a Cyber personality that really does not exist.


You would be more cheesed off if the whole thing got closed down due to legal action.


Camembert to you !

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
