I was in my bathroom on CPR and have just seen your dog crapping by the tree outside 236 Crystal Palace Road. You did too, as you bent down to check that your little white and black pooch had indeed done his/her business. You're wearing blue jeans and a black leather coat. You're a smoker. Kindly come back and remove your dog's turds. Thanks.
As a dog owner, I'm also disgusted by the amount of poo on the streets. But I'm equally disturbed when overly suspicious neighbours and passersby stop and watch me to make sure I'm picking up after my dog - which I do, 100% of the time.

KK: About 12.10pm

Nigello: Normally I would - and have - but I was starkers at the time. I wouldn't inflict that on anyone.

magnificentstan: Glad to hear you clean up - thanks - but many others don't.



Just so we're clear, I love dogs and I'm not a curtain-twitcher. Just sick of the amount of turds on the pavements. You feed a dog, play with it, pay its vets bills, take it for walks... so PLEASE clean up after it, too. It takes 5 seconds, plus maybe another minute until you can put the mess in a bin. Not a big ask.

Ha ha.

I pick up for my beast too.

A few weeks ago a woman approached me and told me to pick up 'my' dog's poo. It was somebody else's dog, a big, rough looking geezah who was strolling ahead of his dog. I pointed-out she should go approach the guy and tell him before he gets too far away.

She suddenly lost all interest.

Dumpertruck and others,


The council will spray bright yellow "Bag it and bin it" signs, complete with defecating hound, if you tell them of a recurrent problem. It's not a great help but it's something: 020 7525 2000 and press 1 for "anti-social behaviour" I think.

I am a liberal minded and tolerant person, but the doo poo problem has become so bad that a good solution would to be to put offending humans in the stocks. That would learn them.


Execution, either in public or private, would be even more effective.

It would be far better if they sprayed the owners and dogs in bright yellow.

I posted a little while ago as I was really fed up at the amount of dog fouling in Melbourne Grove. It was happening on a daily basis - and although the council were very good about coming and clearing it up - it was a massive waste of their time and it wasn't sorting out the problem.


After my post on the forum, I was contacted by a member of the local community warden team who were amazing. They got on the case, visited my road and caught the dog in action and fined the man walking the dog. I guess that was about a month ago. It's been dog-mess free until today - so a massive, massive improvement and I am very grateful.


To make an official report to the community warden team, call 0207 525 5846 and they might be able to help. Otherwise, it's a question of filling in the form on the Southwark Council website and they will clear it up.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
