How am I supposed to shop in ED for groceries? I find William Rose useful for meat and I don't even mind queuing or not being able to pay by card there. But I'm finding it imposible to buy high quality fruit and veg and also fish. Any ideas? I need something of the calibre of the Marks and Sparks foodhall opposite Selfridges or a really good Waitrose.

Thanks. SMBS is quite useful but it doesn't have everything unfortunately. giggirl Wrote:

Tell you what Flick even if you do manage to find a shop with everything, it won't have sweet cigarettes and a reasonably priced CD copy of Moth Poet Hotel.

Bastards to find they are.

Admin tells me Felicity Normal AKA Postmodern will not be posting on the forum again due to abuse. This thread was an "ok then, I'll post something predictably boring that will appeal to the white, middle class tossers of the EDF". I think the forum will be a better place without her/him.

    • Having enjoyed a day with Sayce HolmesLewis, I understand what you’re saying.  I appreciate your courage responding on here. 
    • Thank you to everyone who has already shared their thoughts on this. Dawson Heights Estate in the 1980s, while not as infamous as some other estates, did have its share of anti-social behaviour and petty crime. My brother often used the estate as a shortcut when coming home from his girlfriend’s house, despite my parents warning him many times to avoid it. Policing during that era had a distinctly “tough on crime” approach. Teenagers, particularly those from working-class areas or minority communities, were routinely stopped, questioned, and in some cases, physically handled for minor infractions like loitering, skateboarding, or underage drinking. Respect for authority wasn’t just expected—it was demanded. Talking back to a police officer could escalate a situation very quickly, often with harsh consequences. This was a very different time. There were no body cameras, dash cams, or social media to hold anyone accountable or to provide a record of encounters. Policing was far more physical and immediate, with few technological safeguards to check officer behaviour. My brother wasn’t known to the police. He held a full-time job at the Army and Navy store in Lewisham and had recently been accepted into the army. Yet, on that night, he ran—not because he was guilty of anything—but because he knew exactly what would happen if he were caught on an estate late at night with a group of other boys. He was scared, and rightfully so.
    • I'm sure many people would look to see if someone needed help, and if so would do something about it, and at least phone the police if necessary if they didn't feel confident helping directly. At least I hope so. I'm sorry you don't feel safe, but surely ED isn't any less safe than most places. It's hardly a hotbed of crime, it's just that people don't post on here if nothing has happened! And before that, there were no highwaymen,  or any murders at all .... In what way exactly have we become "a soft apologetic society", whatever that means?
