I could see the HEMS dr's at the scene when I came by just before 9am - was going down the other way. Think once they've stabilised the patients and whizzed them over the hill the road will open again fairly quickly = there was a recovery lorryh there already. Hope whoever it is is ok - know they'll get best poss care.
I got caught up in that; had to get out of my bus and walk past just as all the police/fire/ambulance types were arriving. Didn't want to look too much but what I saw didn't look good - looks as if someone went under a lorry. Loads of sirens, emergency people rushing about with a 'this is bad' expression on their faces. Not nice at all.

The cozzers were appealing for witnesses and stopped me in me motor whilst I was leaving my house for work this morning! I guess the accident must have been nasty and they were just taping the road off.


Imagine asking me though! As if I am gonna bleat to the filth!

I realised who this was this weekend. The guy lived just over the road from me. The most friendly neighbour we have he always had time to stop and chat and was just the sort of guy that made ED the friendly community that makes me love to live here. I'm sure they'll be plenty of other locals who knew him well and will miss him. All my sympathy to Emma and the boys.

Nutty


the funeral was today. It was a big turnout I must say and most of us were in tears. His grandfather collapsed and died of grief this morning on his way to the church father Charles at Goose green told. Its weird how things turn out. Stephen was a great guy and we chatted loads and walked around together as I live a stones throw away too.Emma is expecting a third child. Best wishes to her. She has plenty of love and support around her.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
