I rarely use the no 12 bus and it will be a while before I use it again. I am quite affected by the shooting yesterday, but only because I have children. I was playing with my daughter on the rye Sunday midday and trying to get her to ride her bike for the first time without stabilisers. We walked back up Friern Road at about 12.30, obviously not far off the time and location of the shooting.


I'm going to stay clear of the peckham rye end of ED for a while and that includes the no 12 bus.

Why not go the whole hog and barricade yourself in your house? It's the only way to be sure.

Hi Mick - although I do sympathise - had I gone to the Herne for a quick drink before Sunday lunch I might have been passing by as the shooting happened, but you simply cannot let these things affect you and your life. I was mugged at Elephant and Castle and although I was very shaken, I knew I had to continue using the buses and the tube in that area. If violence affects our lives then the perpetrators of such violence are winning the fight against decent behaviour.

By saying you're going to stop going to that part of ED for a while you're making a change to your life as a direct result of these events. Exactly what these criminals are hoping to achieve! I actually live very close by and although the news has shocked me, I have no intention of changing the way I live.

Jeez don't knock a guy for being shaken by someone being executed by a single bullet to the back of their head in proximity to their neighbourhood !! Especially when


People take things different ways and react how they feel like reacting.


We all know what we SHOULD do for crissakes. As for the perpetrators I don't think they're trying to scare people from the neighbourhood, they were more focussed on taking that poor guy out. There's no battle going on for the streets !

      Where have all the pigeons gone?

      By Mabaker · Posted

      Well, they're back today. Something must have spooked them yesterday. And yes, like Angelina, my pigeons are also well turned out. They all wear the same uniform. I think they may be stock doves. As well as Mr and Mrs Woodpigeon I also get the collared doves.

      they probably frequent the parks more in summer when there are more people around, dropping food etc.  Likewise, I haven't seen as many in my garden recently.

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      The discussion has been about the silence from certain posters about Truss's disastrous actions. Your 'gotcha' is merely a deflection.

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Sephiroth · Posted

      The banking crisis was a global event which enabled the Tories victory and to this day is somehow used against Labour  covid and furlough are under events which impacted economy.  But guess what? Not just the uk economy! energy prices a result of the Russian invasion, something Johnson said would never happen and as we seek to remove ourselves from non-renewable and Russian controlled natural resources, we have Tories and reform condemning Labour for pursuing renewables. Something most other sane countries are doing  We must also not forget the mad relative in the attic.  Brexit.  Something which contributed massively both to the black hole and to the foreseeable future lack of growth  (this is something starmer has also bizarrely tied himself to. Presumably in an attempt to placate the media/loons who think it was a good idea but which will fail in both aims)
