Pugwash I'll put that out where is the 22nd meeting?

Otta and Red Devil don't do anything, don't say anything, don't read this thread. I personally don't know that anything other than a digital photo and a cake that I won't even deliver personnally: the Camberwell Force will eat it with their tea.

And I wonder who will be right you both or me in a few years for Mr Crust looking back

I can see it from both sides here. Otta & red devil are going with his wishes, which is good.

But you prefer to ignore them which is understandable.


Sometimes when people retire they don't want a fuss, don't want to be the centre of attention etc. It's just the thought/embarrassment of it.

Then when it happens and they get inundated with gifts and thanks, they are so grateful and appreciative.


I don't live in ED and don't even know him but I'm sure he will love whatever you do. And he'll have a wonderful retirement experience to look back on.

Just to clarify, I think cake / well wishes / putting forward for an MBE are all great ideas.


I don't think a party or going in to local businesses trying to blag free meals is such a good idea. If I was the chap in question, I'd feel a bit uncomfortable about that sort of thing.


But that's just my opinion.

I have written to Sgt Victoria to see if Adrian is doing the Street Meeting outside the mosque on NX Rd Friday 22nd 12.30 - 1.30, as I will take a long and early lunch break to come and wish him well.

I think if all of us who feel that Adrian has been an exceptional police officer, could recommend him for an OBE or something, this would be a good testimony. I have his Police number somewhere.


We have a history of exceptional bobbies in ED - George (cannot recall surname) who was stabbed in LL in 1985 and the local police all donated blood for him. The Ed Community Centre has a big event and raised nearly a ?1000 towards a scanner for Kings in Feb 1986 ( I recall this well as I had a 2 week old baby) followed by Mike Ward, Mick Bell and Adrian

    • Not sure what the age range is but Woodcraft Folk meet at the East Dulwich Community Centre in Darrell Road on a Tuesday evening.
    • James  may have initiated the boards but there would have been a group of people who would have taken in turn to keep boards up to date. When locks and boards were vandalised  it took some while (around 2 years) for the council to repair/replace and many of the group who maintained them, moved/died. I know James was not seen so much in ED due to  family  illness/bereavement  and I believe he also changed his job.
