Anti-social behaviour in ED - WARNING: Don't read this if you have no sense of humour


Recommended Posts

You're mixing up two different threads. It's fine to discuss and disagree with Cella's original post - the forum is, of course, a great place for debate. It is a different matter entirely to start another thread which mocks her.

I quite like this thread. Initially a person expresses outrage at a person's behaviour in the physical world. LD then expresses outrage, in the form of a parody, at the defilement of a public internet forum with what she considers a triviality. So, we have ever decreasing circles of outrage rippling from the real world to the internet. And then I post. And like all of my recent posts, my words fall into the void and the thread no doubt ends.


I miss the aeroplane thread for its I'm outraged that your outraged circularity. They were a bit noisy this morning. Can someone bring it back?

Nothing to do with not having a sense of humour but how on earth do any of you think this thread is actually amusing? I could understand if you were of an age, say somewhere in the range of 6-9 years of age, where snot, mud, worms and dirt are highly amusing but I though ED and in particular the EDF had a little more class than those currently being displayed.


Disappointed? yes

Disgusted? Most definately

Surprised? No not really. I do recall a forum event some years ago where a similar sort of thing arose amongst the "regulars". Sad

If I'm thinking of the same occassion KB is, to which I feel ashamed for inviting KB along - still working on his forgiveness! - (don't think you were there SJ) it certainly wasn't particularly pleasant. Although, of course that could just be my opinion on what is/should be socially acceptable in a public place and I could be out dated on such things! ;-)

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
