Very worrying subject, but i hope someone would let me know about my dog walker around the general public.


Yesterday morning i was in Peckham Rye park carpark. My dog was on its lead and i was attempting to put her in the car when a large grey/black dog came hurling over. I looked over and saw a dog walker who i have seen many times with around 5 dogs all off lead running through the carpark.


I managed to get my dog into the car and then witnessed a medium sized black fluffy dog jump at the window of a moving car.


The walker did nothing and carried on towards the 1 o'clock club.


As i was leaving the car park, the black dog came running from the old toilet block, straight in front of my car. I stopped the car and called out to the guy that i could have hit his dog. He ignored me and just as i was about to go, the grey/black dog ran from the same area up to the drivers window.


By this stage i was pretty shaken and got out and called to him that i nearly killed 2 dogs because he did not have them on a lead.


He was clearly not going to take responsibility, or even listen to me. All he kept saying was "25 mph".


I sometimes wish my car could do 0 - 100 in less than a second, but in a carpark i think even 25mph is a bit optimistic.


You may know the guy ,italian accent maybe, 40'sh, sometimes walks with another guy with a collie.


Anyway, if you use this walker, beware, dogs should not be allowed to run through carparks , unless you are happy to take responsibilty for their death! :(

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
