Yes a good day I agree.


Now, sale and such will take a good three months. New plans etc. and planning approval - 1 year to 18 months. Expect a fight if the plans aren't up to scratch and a lot of to-ing and fro-ing. Once plans approved, it takes three months (at least) before work commences. Then the build/renovation.


Best case scenario before any work begins on the site: 2 years. Probably more like 3. But at least it is moving.

The emergency clinic was not good service and was awful in my experience. Last yr I moved into a shared house, with a girl, who I did not at first realise, was completely psychotic.


She went completely nuts one week and it climaxed in a really bad night, thought people were watching her through the TV, the phone etc etc. Though all us housemates had a plan to murder her, was really scared, said she was gonna drive her car into a petrol pump.


We managed to get her to the maudsley. They sent her home.


She was standing there crying for them to help her and shouting, as she was scared and paranoid and the man said her felt threatened so he was not willing to help. Do they not deal with people who are psychotic, have training and know how to restrain or section if necessary, plus she is only a small 24 yr old girl? So he sent her home with us, 2 girls in a 20s with no training. She even asked to be sectioned, pleaded, told him she was gonna harm herself and he still did nothing. This happened twice. Another time we called the ambulance, but she thought they were 'fake' ambulance men, who we had planned to murder her and would not leave with them, they cannot force her unless she was sectioned, so then we called the police, but they could not section her unless she left the house, because she was in her on home. So the only times she could have got the help she needed were when we went to the maudsley and they didn't help us.


I do not live there anymore, but when I was there after her experience she felt so let down and would never go back to the maudsley again and with the ambulance and police not able to help, where is she supposed to go when it happens again?

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
