Well done - 10:35 - they've gone.


(This is probably a silly question, but what can they usefully see from up there? They were doing circuits of Nunhead and Peckham Rye, from a fairly great height, so they weren't following a vehicle. How can they tell a villain from the citizens of Nunhead - this is not joke question, pls refrain from Nunhead-unfriendly responses)

Aha! that's why the helicopter was hovering, an EDulite tunnelled out of ED and into Nunhead, popped up somewhere in Nunhead Cemetery... found it very peacful.

I have to say, I am always confused by these threads, as a previous poster stated, there is at least one police helicopter hovering over ED/Peckham/Nunhead/Camberwell every week (I can see all 4 areas from my attic window!)


Why do people seeem so surprised by it? This is London!

I also find that these helicopters head over to the dutch estate in dulwich at all unsociable hours for hours on end - can I find anyone to complain to as this wakes the family and I spend hours trying to get them back to sleep only to find its now time to get up!!!!

Oh sorry Michelleb, we'll just ask them to politly turn their engines off whilst hovering over east Dulwich shall we. I think basically what happened is that the home secretary was flicking off in her big subsidised couch when all of a sudden there was a knock at the door. 'Could you spare me some change for baby food please'. The home secretary handed over a tax payers bluey and sent her on her way. Upon realising that the begger was black and there for obviously not a constituant of Worcester she called special branch. "Jacqui Smith hand over money to the poor, pigs will fly", "really, well whats that helicopter doing there?".

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident.

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      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

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      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.
