So you bullies know who you are dont you ?

I know Mike and I know what happened last Friday , you are certainly a braver man than I !! All I have done is disagree with people on here who think they have a special right to air their opinions and god help anyone who disagrees with them. That pack mentality in a pub on a Friday night is not my idea of fun........

DD - If you are going to post previous comments then please make sure that you post them all so that no one is quoted out of context !!!

Not at all Who_Cares


I often find that people can resolve their 'differences' better in person rather then via textual means, and it would be interesting to see a discussion betwen the various parties involved in this conversation. However if that fails then I am sure we could always ask DulwuchDull to pop around the back to have a quiet word with my Mastiff who likes nothing better then chewing the fat with people (or is it chewing on their fat... she is a bit of a rascal I have to say) !!!

DulwichDoll, you have got a nerve to accuse people of bullying. Just take a look at the excessive number of negative posts you've written about a certain establishment on Bellenden Road. Then look at the way you treated a guy who had different ideas about what establishments he'd like to see on that road (I didn't agree with him either, but that's not the point).


You get very personal with your posts, use confrontational language, and pursue disagreements relentlessly - even spilling over onto unrelated threads. You should take a serious look about how you treat other people, if you want to gain the respect of others.

But Moos I was PM by other posters who said they would NEVER go because they felt intimidated by a couple of regular forumrites with whom they had disagreed. And I was also had a PM from someone who went who said they was called a c*** amongst other things and wished the ground could swallowed them up they felt so uncomfortable. Thanks but that is not what I call an interesting evening by anyones standards.

Sorry read that as if someone turns up with spirits they'd be treated in a friendly way - any in particular, vodka, gin.....?

If you feel so badly bullied or intimidated DD might I suggest giving the forum a miss. Or why don't you use a different approach, wipe the slate clean and start afresh. Admin would come down heavily on any bullies so let him know and then call it a day. PLEASE

Seriously? By the people who regularly attend the forum drinks? I find that hard to believe.

My first post was when I asked if a shop was open on not on Bellenden Road that I and others had found closed. I was insulted and mocked because of that by several regular forumites.


I disagreed with a guy who said that an African restaurant should be on an African Street like..... Peckham High St !! and Xena I only quoted one of your posts because I thought the dog out the back quip was not very nice either but thought I only needed to post ONE of your comments to make my point. Jeremy I dont want respect I just defend my right to post without being intimidated . And Spartacus and Sean what gave you the right to make those comments when I had never had any forum contact with you before ? Not to mention being accused of being Poppy, who cares, and anyone else who had the guts to agreed with me about the behaviour of some on this forum.

One thing I have noticed is that some people may interpret the site differently, Ive seen people post a specific subject and have it rubbished imediatley. I'm not saying that is the case all the time of course but people break into communities and groups in different ways. I dont think the OP really deserved to be anhialated quite in the way they were even if it was a fabricated load of old hog wash, wheres the humility in that, and I think DD may have been on the receiving end of some harsh statements, look at it from an outsiders point of view with no prior knowledge of the OP habits. You could perceive the replys DD got as hostile.


I know for a fact I talk crap take the piss out of certain posts or attack me nemasis football fans, and slagged of Richersounds and made a few jokes about tin hat week and the credit crunch. but does it warrent having a drunken bafoon call you a cock at the top of his voice in a room full of strangers. I am a F*cker when it comes to joking about but when the first thing someone says to you in a huge group of people is OH your that bloke who likes to argue all the time, thats a bit of a paradoxical injunction if ever I saw one.

This Brendan is part of the PM sent to me. And people say that I should come and would enjoy myself........no thanks !

Seems a pity to go with one person's point of view rather than the many that were posted immediately after the event - but at the end of the day, it's got to be up to each person what they feel happy with doing.


Mikecg, sorry you were made to feel uncomfortable - I thought I saw you chatting happily with the lovely Hibbs among other ladies ;-) (we met briefly, not sure if you remember me) - so hoping you didn't have a wholly dreadful time.

Is that your rule or the forum rules ? Many forumites prefer to PM and for various reason. One being that some people are scared to post support of a poster for fear of being outcast or ridiculed on here And I have received 27 PM messages telling me different versions of just that.

    • It’s the impact the festival has on the community, the people living next door to the park who have to endure the thumping music and worse. Then there’s the park and the state it’s left in and the wildlife, especially nesting birds. All the roads going down Denmark Hill towards the park were closed off and roads off half moon lane and going up towards West Norwood closed off with wardens at each end, who were paid by Lambeth Council to stand there for the 4 days.  The festival made the news channels and interviews suggested most of the people attending weren’t fron the local area but places like Ireland and Scotland.  I live a 20 minute walk from the park and could hear the thumping music all day and night. Also the wind certainly carried the smell of drugs to my garden! For 4 days I couldn’t believe how strong it was. 
    • Emirates Stadium is  >60,00 but they tend to be very quiet 🙂 Jokes aside though, it's a case in point. Highbury was <40,000 and was 300M up the road, so there are definitely Islington residents who used to live half a mile from a fairly big football stadium, and now live right by a massive one. One that holds rock/pop concerts too accomodating 70,000 fans whether they like ot or not.   40% of Islington households are in social housing so regardless of when they moved their current homes, they may have had little say in exactly where they are housed.   
    • St Christopher's only take books in perfect condition. 
    • This is where I sit too. A two day event is bearable. Three tests my tolerance. Finding the right balance on size, noise and impact is where I contribute to the consultation process. BUT, as I wrote elsewhere, every year the GALA organisers ask/ push for more, and deals have already been done with the council before it gets to public consultation stage. It is also worth pointing out that when a licence was first granted, the orgnaisation was different (We Are the Fair), one of the company directors lived literally next to the park (she left when it became GALA) and the current form bears no resemblance to original ethos/ vision sold to the council and licensing committee. This needs to be pointed out and I am fairly confident local councillors would also support a pushback on any further expansion. We have local elections next year, so councillors ears will be open.
