Not more than 10 minutes ago, on my way to work, I saw the 2 asian women with their shopping trollies, pulling things out of someone's bin on Upland Rd! Unfortunatelly I couldn't take a photo as my phone hasn't got a camera. They were walking towards Oakhurst Grove. They didn't seem to care who saw them!

We should have a hashtag. #EastDulwichbingyppos


In response to you Cle, who have also referred to these two women as 'slatterns' in a previous post.


I am more shocked by your use of derogatory language on a public forum as if it were the most normal thing in the world, your territorial obsession with your own front garden, your apparent lack of empathy and your small minded view of the world, than by the fact that there are two women rummaging through bins. I would be more worried if my children read your comments than if they saw two people looking through the things we had thrown out through our living room window.

That was my first thought.




And yes, well said Deborah. Cle is something of an unpleasant snob judging by their posts on here.

And a few other choice terms too - it's been a bit of an ongoing joke, as was the hashtag quite clearly. Bore off with your faux shock, and find something to channel your exasperation into.


That said, I don't think your 'territorial' as a pejorative about a front garden is quite right. It's as much my property as my bedroom and I don't see why people should come in without permission and rifle around - except for the expected and the obvious whose reason and purpose is clear (postmen, binmen, even junk mail/flyering). You may want a free-for-all but please don't assume your attitude is normal.

As ever Louisa, you win the board!


Otta - calling me a snob and taking about my tone is one thing (and you're quite right even though I am slightly messing around too), but I don't appreciate the random quotation of the racial elements in the reply to me, which if you trawl through my posts, I have never once engaged on or mentioned at all. Not me talking about Asians or Eastern Europeans...

Maybe they're from one of the countries that enters the Eurovision but isn't really in Europe... Azerbaijan or Georgia, perhaps.

It was first mentioned here on the forums in March, that 2 women were seen going through bins. Who knows how long they have been doing this. They do it in broad daylight - seen mornings, lunchtimes... They go through wheelies on the pavement as well as the ones in peoples gardens. They have tall oblong fabric shopping trolleys with them - one was silver grey coloured from what I remember.

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English..
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
