I know it is very annoying and very loud but it always reminds me of hoidays in Greece. I know the weather isn't hot and i do have to wake up with an alarm clock but it does trigger a reminder of good times. That said it's not Greece and i'm not on holiday and the alarm will go off at 6.30.

" deregulates the scooters " .........oh please ! blah blah blah..........ooh no ID cards, to many CCTV, this government removes our human rights......blah, blah , blah blah.........ooh but keep scooters regulated or we will all be thrown into a state of sublime anarchy and the world will grind to a halt.


Let's get and ED hells angels chapter thats what i say, anyone for a patch ?

Just been called by Duncan at the East Dulwich Safer Neighborhood team and they pulled a kid last night that was zipping around on a scooter with no exhaust!! Served him a "Code 57" (or something like that - I forget the real term he used) and if he gets caught again he'll be in bother.

I wondered why I didn't hear him last night!! Hopefully that will put an end to it.

Hi,


This rider also frequents Oakhurst Grove every night at about 9pm and 9.30. There are a lot of small children in the area and it is annoying.


The rider is exceeding the speed limit for a built up area and also appears to have the baffle's removed as clearly the sound is illegal as well under the Road Traffic Act.


Here is what we did for someone who persisted in doing exactly the same in our last house:


Make a note of the time/times that the rider drives past over a couple of day's. When it is about that time on the third day turn of your lights in your house, press a flash camera to your window and as he drives past press the flash button. It is quite funny seeing the rider slow down, stop, and then look around wondering where the 'speed camera' is. He soon gets the message and avoids your road. If it happens in all streets, then he might get a pushbike or move.


IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT YOU MUST ONLY FLASH WHEN THE RIDER HAS GONE PAST AS A SERIOUS ACCIDENT MAY OCCUR


If that does not do it then report it to the Police.


Regards,

Libra Carr.

i watched 5 kids on scooters yesterday shoot along a road in west dulwich, all the bikes clearly with baffles removes and all sporting new pipes to give them more speed they were all 50cc but clearly nearer 90cc+ they shot across a round about and around a police car that was just waiting to go, one actually went up the inside of it. I thought obviously the police would nick the lot of them but they just moved on in another direction. I could not believe how quickly the bikes accelerated away. moments later another police car came down the road that they had just driven up passing them without a second thought, not a blue siren in sight. My point being that our police are shite !


They could have stopped them and that would have been 5 bikes of the road and all your noise problems solved !

actually i do significantly blame rap music, and until someone has the balls to start a proper fucking debate about it i.e "this music has f all to do with black culture" and more to do with feelings of inadequacy and exclusion we ain't going to get anywhere.

I know I shouldn't be influenced by Videos and Songs like this, considering I've hit the wrong side of 50 but lines like:


"I spray your joints to make

To make my point!"....


have tranformed my wussy mellow mood on this beautiful Spring Morning and now I just wanna give some bwoi a lick-shot bigtime!


YOUGETMEBRUV !!

i know, it is easy to take the piss, but the whole language thing is problematic as well. It fine as long as these kids understand the fundamentals of language and the fact that talking this way is really a big fantasy world. It does not really exist as you grow up and mature into an adult in a working situation. Parents and teachers need to confront these kids and even their parents about this issue and not be worried. Have an intelligent conversation challenge them and give them some credit because they can grasp it. Then you can choose how you want to..........roll

Oh well, in that case, if it's been done for years, forget it... I'll not bother trying to get rid of this nuisance and just let him get on with bothering half of the residents of Goodrich/Friern/Hillcourt/Dunstans...

    • A Google search brought up eleven Chango  branches, although they don't all seem to be listed on their website. In the order they came up: East Dulwich, Clapham Common, Mayfair, Wandsworth, City of London, Wimbledon,  Parsons Green, Kensington, Highgate, Richmond, Hampstead. I think it is the positioning of this new branch that has mostly got to me. I accept that they would have to go for where a space became vacant, but Lordship Lane is pretty long, even just the part with shops in,  and choosing to  open a stone's throw away from Chacarero seems mean, to say the least. I wonder if they have made contact with Chacarero. It would be nice to think they had (in a friendly way, obviously!) As regards the apparent  marketing spiel, at least one of the online reviewers also refers to a Chango branch (the Parsons Green one in this case) as a "gem". Probably just coincidence and a word in common use to describe such places. I wouldn't know. I'm ancient 🤣
    • I like empanadas. I don't think Chango is a massive chain - it's got a few stores all in London I believe (stand to be corrected if I've got that wrong). I don't see a problem with them opening on the Lane personally. I really like Chacarero, but that doesn't mean that they should be immune from competition - if they're successful and open a couple more stores, are we then meant to stop supporting them for being a 'chain'?  That opening post does sound a lot like marketing spiel though. Is the OP perhaps connected to the new business I wonder?
    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has.
