This is South-East London after all...

[localgirlwithdreads]

I used to live in Ladywell. I was back over there this afternoon to sit around drinking coffee in the locale's only coffee shop. A local acquaintance then came bounding in, breathless, to announce that there had been a shooting by Ladywell station. Police were "swarming" and roads were closed. He was extremely, extremely excited and looked livelier than I'd seen him in years. So I presume it wasn't actually him that got shot. He was so worked up and excited that he was unable to explain to me precisely what had happened and whether it was a murder. Aren't shootings a regular occurence in south-east London?

Blimey that?s what happens around here when Green and Blue run out of New World Sauvignon Blanc.

If they ever dare, again.

Oh dear Dreads...I'm afraid that's only the tip of a very murky iceberg.

Last week a butcher was raided on Rye lane and Police discovered a Leper colony under the floorboards.

Target Arms on Lordship lane has been investigated after claims that it has been run by a former Serbian warlord who's wanted for questioning by the Hague.

101 Dalmations were found dead and had been skinned. Police have failed so far in their efforts to bring a local PR mogal who alledgedly lives on Alleyns road to justice following claims that half the MET are in her handbag.

There was a ferocious gun battle at the JAGS sports club after a member of staff rolled her eye's one too many times.

Oh and some geezer wearing an out of the ordinary track suit was seen walking with a suspicious limp and whistling a tune that may or may not have been a code to bypass burglar alarms.

They're regular LGWD but not yet frequent enough for us to become consumed with ennui and take to our fainting couches, all the while dispatching the help for supplies of laudanum as a diversion.

I for one have not done that several weeks.

And I'm sure I'm not alone.
