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 Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
