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


Recommended Posts

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.

I used to live near Bayswater a number of years ago. If you walked around after 11-ish you would get loads of girls in the area calling out 'want to do some business, luv'. I used to just say, 'No thanks' and go on my way.


I never ever thought to say F off.

Hmm, no matter how slowly I drive past goose green I never get any women coming over to speak to me. Maybe Saturday morning with a baby in the back isn't the right modus operandi.

Anyway, a quick check of punternet ought to sort out the ED v Tooting competition.

Might not have been such a good idea to get your username embroidered on your sweatshirt!

I've been propositioned twice now by men in cars - one by hsbc and one at texaco petrol station who was horrible to me(thanks by the way to the other man who checked I was okay after he'd gone, I really appreciated it; the forum was down at the time otherwsie would have posted sooner). May sound trivial but i was quite shaken up afer the second one. and no, i was not all dolled up at either time - was on way back from gym.

It's part of the London Culture, seedy men, propositioning women on the street. Just make sure, if your alone at night, to have your phone always fully charged, keep your house keys round your nuckles, just incase anyone approaches you, you can knock em out.


Oh yea, Tooting is massive for this kind of thing.

Suffering low estime at a fiver, with your length of limb and amusing erudition you should never take less than a ton.

    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
    • MaryT, I’ve contacted the Dulwich Hill councillors several times in recent years, always copying them both in. I have never had an acknowledgment from Jon Hartley (not even an automated response or out-of-office) nor had any response or engagement from him regarding the issue raised.   On each occasion, only Maggie Browning responded (she uses an out-of-office if she is away). The last time, I received no response from either for 3 months, until Maggie Browning emailed me to apologise for not responding and asking if the problem had been resolved.
    • The  Kwasi effect is being considered.
