You bizarrely missed Sydenham off this "ringers" list.

This forum is a big employer in the area and it creates industry.


Loads of useful trades make profit from it.


mlteenie with his 'ride to you' bicycle repairs, and boneyard's delivered upmarket meals, would have an uncomfortable time without it.


It also supplies mirth to the masses and lets us all know there are people out there who are very concerned about a death in the family.

Ha ha, we're too far out to even claim borders status, but I'm an ED original, and I'm sticking to that story :-)

The reason the ED Forum has more people posting in it than in the West Dulwich forum, is partly like someone in this forum pointed out. The ED forum doesn't really just cover the East Dulwich area it also covers other area's, that canny estate agents have told their client their house is in East Dulwich to con more money out of them, and they have choosen to believe them because of a bit of snobbery. Also because in West Dulwich our house's are so much more expensive therefore we have to work at our very well paid jobs to pay our morgtgages, instead of having lots of time to sit on this forum.B)

Yes but only the people who are being commented on have too much time on their hands. The people doing the commenting are frightfully busy and important and only snatching a moment from their hurried, busy, important days to locate a particular thread - almost at random, it has to happen so fast - and tell everyone else how much time they are wasting.

      Flu and Covid jabs locally

      By beansprout · Posted

      Thanks for that - none  of mine  have been Mordena - whilst vulnerable cat, think I will just take my chances… Will be having flu though - certainly not by choice - much prefer not to but in vulnerable group.. Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.

      Wow, that is what it costs for one prisoner. So they get full board and lodging, 24 hour  monitoring  in over populated prison, we are led to believe, minimum exercise, assume a tv in each cell provided - in USA it is together with wash hand basin and c toilet - some have showers as well.   Clearly this amount of money takes  into account overstretched and overworked prison officers, protection for them, counselling which is, in my opinion a bare minimum dealing with prisoners in all settings. Do if Sweden can look outside the box, why can’t we? Or are we just not bothered at all / read statistics some where that reoffending is normal and to be frank, with economy as it is at the moment re employment, cost of living and homelessness..not surprised they reoffend to get back inside - food provided, roof over your head - much better than street living, mixing with wrong crowd, trying to get roof over your head, find a job where 90 % won’t employ you as been inside..

      @beansprout The Swedes seem to have a useful strategy with regard to offenders  which has reduced repeat offending.  I agree that prison time for minor offences is a complete waste of time. Even worse is that prisons are "colleges of crime" where inmates learn about how to be do crimes and worst of all, become exposed to drug taking. I wouldn't advocate having chain gangs as in the USA but some strategy for getting them into say manual work under supervision might be useful - especially if it came with a modest wag. This would be significantly cheaper than the £51,100 it costs per year for  keeping one in jail.
