I think I spotted you, Yosemite Sam lookalike right?

You came a stompin' out, paused, did a double take and rubbed your eyes, then went back in rubbed your eyes once more and walked out again muttering something about 'young uns and womenfolk'.

Actually, I said 'How is it that it's a fucking weekday, and I still can't get a fucking seat to have a fucking coffee in this fucking coffee shop. Lazy fucking mums. Fucking that's why. Lazy fucking mums.'


I do recognize that I have an little anger problem before I have my coffee, so sorry mums. Not your fault.

Or a DulwichMum column.

Well, all I can say is we must be lucky to live in a place like East Dulwich if the worst people have to cope with is finding their way round the odd buggy and misbehaved child.


I've no plans to ever have a family, but I like the fact East Dulwich is a family area, gives me some sense of security that its a generally safe area, and means it's not too noisy and I can get a good night's sleep.


So, every once in a while I have to step out of my way on Lordship Lane to get past a buggy. Big deal, the fact other people are having kids means there will be people out working funding the NHS when I am old and need it!


In the grand scheme of things to worry about, this really doesn't register.

Thank you James , for actually seeing the point I was trying to make , I see it as a valued one as well . I have observed many a situation and shaken my head in dismay . For example bus journeys , when i was a child we were asked to vacate our seats for adults , nowadays the mother - parent stands and lets the child sit down , I would make my child stand up nd offer a seat to an adult , and if i wanted my child safe they would sit on my knee like we all did . urgh ! I cannot belie ve the responses , altho it makes me laugh that most have been about the acceess ways of the butchers ! xx see you have made me move my rant onto buses , I am nt a hater of children , i just dislike the way 30 somethings pander to their offspring , who is the boss here ?
...Eek, can I say, I'm a childless 'early' 30-something, and I quite living among young families in ED -- they always look quite happy and content. I'm doing a phd at King's and it makes me feel pretty settled -- however, it's good to have younger urbanites to keep the place young and trendy ;p *I count myself in that band of course*

Hi All


I live in Chislehurst which is a bit like ED but without the drug dealing and gun crime, it also has a Cafe Nero which is stuffed full of Yummies and three wheel prams so i think the problem is obviously Cafe Nero it must attract them like bees to honey. The solution for all the peeps who cant stand the Yummies or their sprogs is find a place that has no hope of a Nero opening and move there.

What a nice comment - well said - too many people slag off young families in ED but even the younger people will most likely be parents some time, so its nice to hear someone who does not yet have children saying something positive. And I agree most people in ED with young children do seem happy, and most importantly the children seem happy. (not like when I was young, we were all miserable).

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
