I've pondered too TM, not for long though, it's not me really.

I reckon who we have here are none other than Richard Jobson and Jay Strongman.

Jobbo singer in The Skids and Strongo DJ at The Dirtbox and many other clubs, singer in The El Trains and coworker with me in a couple of Oxford Street menswear shops.

It's obvious the pair of them are in the mood for some suburban chicks.

Same here . Where ever it is remains a mystery. None of my single friends know either .

My firend did that and now he's married to a 24 year old Peruvian girl 20 years his junior. I enjoyed the wedding though.

Its just not there. Anywhere . I have five single girl friends ages 38-44, all different, attractive, aproachable, interesting, not too annoying or irritating. There is nothing wrong with any of them. They try everything they can to meet decent men, they are always out and joined to all kinds of clubs. They are not too picky nor will they just settle for anything to avoid being on their own. In my opinion, meeting the right one is more down to luck than judgement .

Haha Legal! Im with you there, no addictions very important! Ex before last was addicted/obsessed with porn and w****d on average five times a day, sometimes more, regardless of being in a relationship.. Not what a girl should know or want at all .


Own teeth I agree, though this may change when im 60 .


I dont mind a small beer belly, lets face it, most of the 40+ age population have one.


Personal hygiene very important . How on earth does a stinky men expect any one to fancy them!? ( maybe they dont care )


psychotic illness a No NO because they always forget to take the meds.


Having a job is a positive because you dont want them laying in your bed all day and poncing off you .

I agree with above from Daizie - I am actually divorced (and a mum) something pretty common in the late thirties and early forties I would have thought and I know there's a few like me around here (yes, really, in ED!) so where are the divorced men/divorced Dads! Do they all move away from East D 'cos it's too expensive???

Most men want sex, not a lifetime commitment.


After they've suffered the indignity of a 'loaded against us divorce', why repeat that mistake when sex is readily available to most people with their own teeth, non-stinky, no psychotic illness etc.


Many modern western women are 'picky', strident, and demanding, so it's not surprising there is a shortage of takers when there is the danger of a repeat performance.


I am convinced that the law and the way it is administered against the male species, is succeeding in driving a wedge through the heart of matrimony.


If for example the law stated 'you can only take from the wreckage what you put in' would marriage be such an attractive proposition to the female?


I must point out that I am not a misogynist, I think many women are lovely, delightful, sunny creatures, and have lots of ex-girlfriends who are still happy to talk to me, but I only have one ex-wife.......

    • They are very good
    • Having  current and relevant experience of both Charter North and Charter East with regards to their conduct towards SEN pupils and their families, I would say that their conduct and behaviour is wholly lacking in understanding as well as making no effort to make reasonable adjustments for the SEN pupil as legally required under Equality Act 2010. Furthermore, I believe that their behaviour is wholly illegal. According to data from Ambitious About Autism, unfortunately that is not uncommon We have separately requested legal advice as to whether or not the specific conduct of the school and certain teachers constitutes a criminal offence under the Children and Young Persons Act 1933 or other legislation. These links have some very good materials to assist parents: https://www.ambitiousaboutautism.org.uk https://www.ambitiousaboutautism.org.uk/understanding-autism/education/exclusions-know-your-rights https://www.ipsea.org.uk https://sossen.org.uk   Also, this link specifically for girls with autism as this tends to be diagnosed at a much later stage than boys and requires different support and reasonable adjustments that the neither of the policies nor behaviours of Charter East or Charter North reflect. https://autisticgirlsnetwork.org   Helen Hayes MP for Dulwich & West Norwood and whose constituency includes Charter North is Chair of the Education Committee at the Houses of Parliament They published this report on the SEND crisis on 18 Sept 2025 https://committees.parliament.uk/work/8684/solving-the-send-crisis/   Ellie Reeves (Rachel Reeves’ sister and formerly Chair of the Labour Party) is the MP for Lewisham West and East Dulwich - the constituency under which Charter East falls I would urge any parents who are concerned about their children, whether SEN or not, who attend Charter North or Charter East to write to your MP canvassing their support and requesting that they write to their respective school on this subject, referencing this report of the Education Committee and the failures of Charter East and Charter North with regards to SEN, their illegal behaviour and soliciting a plan of action from them to immediately stop such behaviour and support SEN pupils with reasonable adjustments as required under the Equality Act 2010. Even if your child is not SEN, the school implementing the correct and legally required procedures materially improves the school environment for all pupils, teachers and non-teaching staff. Often the reasonable adjustments can actually be relatively minor but have a very material benefit. In our experience, there have been one or two teachers who have shown this with very positive results; however, this is the opposite of the institutional approach of both schools which is wholly negative, unsupportive and often illegal. In addition to EHCPs, there is also huge pressure at CAMHS and insufficient resource to support all cases and meet demand.  Even if families and their child are lucky to get access to it, there remains very long wait lists to access treatment.  The same is true in the private sector. A proactive and practical, common sense approach to SEN in this manner by Charter North and Charter East would also help to reduce pressure on CAMHS The latest tragedy last week at Charter North means that this is more pressing than ever.    
    • Thought I'd add a comment as sadly there are now too many primary schools for the number of children in this area... St Anthony's is a wonderful school and my 2 sons were extremely happy throughout the time they were there. They have some open days for reception and  nursery in Nov I believe and welcome children and families of all faiths and backgrounds. It has lovely staff and I cannot recommend it more highly!
    • Anyone has lavender buds they don’t want/that I could harvest/cut and use? Ideally in Peckham/ED goose green area.  Thanks in advance!
