A new one for me - I witnessed a drug deal in the *heart* of ED involving 3 blokes and a chap on a juvenile bmx - judging by the small size of the transfer package & the placement of the 2 blokes who acted as lookouts, it may have been an extra saucy little delivery


Class war and agitprop aside,I have not witnessed the before.


Needlees to say, should I see it agan, them Mr Petrol chainsaw may have to show his face


Is this a regular occurence in the balsalmic smeared underbelly of leafy bugaboo turgid ED ?

Saw an unbelievably obvious drug deal on similarly leafy Underhill Road a few months back. Two teenage boys ostensibly waiting at bus stop but incredibly nervous and jittery, ten seconds later a black Beamer pulls up on other side of road, one of the kids runs over, gets into passenger seat, is there for less than ten seconds, then gets out and runs back to the bus stop again, while car drives off.


What made me laugh was that shortly afterwards the P13 (which only runs 3 times an hour) pulled up and the boys got on. I like to think that they arranged the time of their drug deal so they didn't have to wait too long for the bus home afterwards.

I was minding my own business trying to buy some drugs on my BMX the other day in East Dulwich, when out of the corner of my eye I noticed a bloke fiendishly tapping away on a laptop using the EDT's free wi-fi - though having purchased nothing as far as I can tell. This simply has to stop.

Saw one of Sainsburys staff at the DKH branch buying crack right outside the front entrance from one of the many bmx couriers/dealers/scum, not the first time I've seen it, bit surprised really, that sort of thing normally happens at the Bishop.

It's like most kids play areas. I used to think it was just London, but it seems the quieter a place is, the more there is unofficially going on. You ought to try Frome.


I'm not implying that ED/LL is particularly quiet, with nothing else to do, before I get shot down in flames!

I love that you can phone for anything at any time of night and someone will bring it to you regardless of where you live within half an hour, it's why I live in London : )

    • Thanks for posting this JMK we have had 3 children at Charter East so have been involved with the school from the very early days and have watched the impact of inconsistent, unsupportive and at worst unprofessional and biased management on them over the years. Individual teachers have at times been great and as JMK says it is the overall structure that creates a toxic and punitive atmosphere which directly impacts some families more than others and these are the kids overwhelmingly that have an SEN.  The experience of these families is night and day compared with the families with children that can cope in this system.  
    • Another recommendation for Lukasz, he sorted out our bifold door. He came at the agreed time, found the issue very quickly, adjusted it, all very carefully and with attention to detail. And he was very reasonably priced as well. 
    • Well sure someone will correct me but years ago, in Singapore and I was quite young so not sure if it is true. but if you were caught stealing, your little finger or just the  tip part with nail was chopped off.  Stigma for  life as all know that was punishment for stealing… no questions asked.Totally agree it is barbaric but equally putting people  into overcrowded prison for minor offences is also not right. Tagging I guess would not work or maybe does… no idea at all.  Not so long ago, heard a talk about how European’s cope/deal with prisoners and how the suggest rate is higher and offences lowered greatly as in not going back to prison for same  or another offence.  The general gist was their approach was each prisoner mattered , was heard and listens to and a suitable package was tailored towards their needs. Not  b one package for all. Not cooped up for the majority of the day - encouraged as an example to cook, garden, grow food, other household stuff  plus study if wanted for courses, languages etc. and mental health, dependency on substance abuse also addressed. Can’t remember if they were paid c pocket money which clearly accumulated or could be used to  I purchase whatever in prison. If they can do it by experimenting and I think but not sure, at the time an English prison was learning why can’t this sort of program be rolled  out throughout UK - cut backs not an excuse - think of the millions lost by govt during Covid…  Maybe it is - no experience in the matter at all.   
    • Why have things got so complicated? I suppose a cat flap with a timer might be useful for people out all day but can't really see the point of them when its so easy to flip a simple mechanical lock. This is how my last cat flap operated but had to be replaced when cat wearing cone of shame tried to escape and broke it. The cat flap I have now is one of those linked to cats microchip but even then there is just a four way dial which allows different kinds of access - or not. Not that cat is bothered, refuses to use it and demands i open the door for her. This is bit of a rant because along with a new boiler I got a new electronic programmer which is really annoying as it takes 5 minutes to change a simple temperature whereas with old programmer it took 10 seconds. Hope you get sorted @oglander and enjoy your future servitude to your feline master.
