Is Goose Green ED's new kerb crawl hotspot? (Tooting Common)


Recommended Posts

More than 20 suspected kerb-crawlers were arrested so says the Stabbing Times (aka South London Press)please be vigilant around the area. My wife is always being stopped and propositioned by total strangers in and around the Green. Particularly on Fridays. Anyone else had this problem?

This thread is a load of rubbish. The South London Press article is about the notorious red light district next to Tooting Common.

Hands up! Ok it was Tooting but the question was quite serious. So dont fall out of your flip-flops gimme! My missus has been bothered on more than one occasion and so have a couple of her friends up from clapham. Admitadly she hasnt had that issue lately as she is heavily with child (due in six weeks!) I genuinely wanted to see if anyone else had the same experience. We've lived here for three years and I personally think its getting worse.

It's not the pros that are the problem - it's the amateurs

A man in a car slowed down and drove along next to me and asked if I was 'doing business' as i walked home on East Dulwich Grove the other night. (to clarify, my attire didn't exactly scream 'lady of the night.')

I told him to F off and he drove off.

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
