Can I just remind Councillor Barber that


a) there were no drums there

b) our hoardings are canvas and I am sure banging canvas cannot be heard half a mile away. I would track down the true source of the noise instead of making trouble for the club where there is none.


Anyone with any genuine complaints should contact the club or Southwark's noise hotline.


In the meantime I would suggest the good councillor tackles problems that need tackling in the area, and not problems that have been made up.


If he has had complaints I would suggest he:


a) Details times, dates, how many etc and contacts the club with this information (and post it here)

b) explains why he has failed to act on them and has not contacted the club with them.


I don't think the club can be any more accommodating to the local community than that.

As barber is active, only on subjects that suit his own ends, in comparisson to other local cllrs that dont post much on a local forum that is not representative of ED does not make him immune from accountability, transparency, critiscism or indeed being required to provide evidence of his 'facts'. This thread is about dhfc and alleged noise nuisance, not about your poloitical preferences.

Except that's not true, is it? He engages with all (even the abusive, mean spirited ones) on just about any subject that comes up that involves the council. His long-running thread has been useful to many, many people. I remember he was all in favour of the CPZ that was rejected, but still engaged with the antis and provided useful information and helped get the delegation heard.


Some people just have it in for him because he fails to agree with their point of view on each and every subject (a bit like they expect of every politician). Considering some of the abuse he receives on here from some people, I think he has the patience of a saint.

Two from long standing forumites and one from someone that's been around for about a year. What exactly are you implying, considering you only registered three weeks ago and have posted exclusively upon this thread?

Pathetic.


ETA: Oh, you deleted your post. Well, your deleted post was pathetic, but sadly I don't suppose many people saw it, given the time :(6


Oh, and btw, my political (sic) preferences are not those of James Barber, but I still think he is an excellent councillor.

To all the Barberettes - please keep on topic, this thread is about dhfc and alleged noise nuisance. Barber can be critiscised whether or not you like him. Maybe start a fanclub page in the lounge for your worship. This allegations made in this thread could have dire consequences for dhfc.

I live just over half a mile away from Beagle, and I too am often kept awake. Furious howls of dispair, the thumping of hands against walls, the shreiks of injustice and the gasps of indignation. And thats before they start tap tap taping away on their computer, filling yet another complaint form whilst simultaneously howling at the imaginary insects swarming around their room. I wouldn't mind so much, but it's not just me they disturb, I've got a young brood of recently stuffed British weasels, and their faces, they are so, so sad. Is anyone else here disturbed by Beagle? Something should be done. #Barber


p.s. Is he a real barber?

Dear Mr Barber,


Re: Your comments on how many hours a child needs to sleep. You say 12 Hours for a school age. Which is 5 years old. According to this NHS website ( http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Childrenssleep/Pages/howmuchsleep.aspx ) a 5 year old needs 11 hours. A man of your considerable position should not be giving out wrong medical advice. I'll stick to the NHS for my advice, and perhaps you should stick to what you know best...cutting peoples hair I'm guessing.


Dissapointed of Dulwich

HAHA!!! Too bloody right.


Five years ago the noise disturbance was delivery lorries and horny residents around Burrows Rd having sex too loudly. If only we had a genuinely successful, passionate and local sports team on our doorstep who don't go to bed before the watershed, then we could really complain.


You buy a house close to a sports stadium, you buy the conditions attached to that. Blame your surveyor - do mot whinge to your councillor.

Police have only ever dropped in when we payed a friendly against German side Altona, which was the friendliest of games we have played! We have 7 health and safety stewards (always looking for more!!) and 2 SIA authorised security. Police are obviously just a phone call away. Big clubs DO pay for policing-Wembley stadium internally is police free zone
Ah, but the game ended before all children need to start their regulation 12 hours of sleep, which, if it fails to materialise even just once or twice a month, will doom them to idiocy and send our country's economy right down the drain.

    • It’s not great, but this only happens when a business is in trouble and is facing bankruptcy. The landlords are free to say no. The restructuring will often then have to be approved by a High Court judge, so it’s not a total gun-to-the head. It does upset landlords quite a bit though, because if the business does go under, they’ll likely not see any pay out. So they often feel under pressure to comply. 
    • "Sitting around doing job related things". Do you mean sitting and doing their jobs? "have you had your COVID jabs?" Perhaps instead of spending your time on here insulting other posters, in this case me, you would be more effectively employed contacting the practice management with a detailed description of exactly what you say you saw and when. And then see what they say. You have made a lot of assumptions with presumably absolutely no idea what those people's jobs are or when their break times are. I am not defending the practice, which seems to have some problems  I just don't like seeing people who aren't here to defend themselves being publicly attacked by someone who apparently doesn't actually know what those people were doing and why.
    • Relatively recently, they employed a couple of young people on front desk work they were excellent. I don’t know if they’re still there. And yes, they may be doing something on their computers that’s important but when you see  people queuing and no one appearing for many minutes the system seems inefficient.  Some simple changes could make a big difference.  But those changes would have to come from management rather than individual workers choosing to jump up and help. 
    • I'm happy not seeing a GP face to face.  I had WhatsApp video appointments a couple of years ago,which ended up with me being rightly sent to Tommies A and E.  I see nurses from time to time at TJ, I always have a good laugh with both them and the blood test people.  I see the practice nurse at FH from time to time and it feels like visiting an old friend. I'm not sure whether social media has made us a more negative nation, or it just feels this way due to some of you who post on this forum.  The majority of posts in ED matters and on the transport thread are complaints  How would you define lazy and useless?  There is a spectrum of productivity, and of customer service.  Some excel at one or both, but I'm not sure at what point workers drop below an acceptable level.  When I am unhappy I will complain to an organisation. Some respond better than others.  One of my first posts over a decade was to complain about a local shop.  It's a funny anecdote which is essentially a "Ok you don't want my money so I'll go and spend many 100s of pounds at a different company" but I regret not dealing directly with the shop rather than getting pointless revenge many years later.  Still won't use the shop though.
