On Saturday the boys in blue turned up in Barry Road, following an incident where some 'chancers' decided to climb scaffolding errected on a building and nicked some lead on the roof. Not contented with that property, they made their way to adjoining properties and attempted to do the same. Unfortunately they were spotted and eventually nicked.

Peckham Police officer informed me that there had been a number or burglaries in ED - some of the thieves had been caught- these were people from both the Camberwell and Peckham areas.

ED is seen to be a 'wealthy area' hence the 'tourists' see us as rich pickings.

It is indeed LB, I bought the larger of the two on offer, the smaller was 11 quid.

It's a black one and looks pretty good if I say so myself.

What I also need to share is that the a couple of weeks prior to my chop2pot board I bought a large royal blue polypropylene chopping/bread board also by the Joes.

Big solid lump of polypro it is an'all.

I'm seriously considering the colander though, it looks very handy and is probably a boon.

I think there's lead on roofs in those areas as well.


I love these imaginary chats with police officers.


They're great for backing up any groundless assumptions one might have on the internet.

I know I know. It seems harsh. But if you want the very latest in polypropylene living hinges you really can't afford to lose focus, even for a month.

A boon, yes, but tread carefully HB. They do folding and square colanders. A chap could make a grave error if purchasing without due thought.

Excellent findings, sophiesofa. This may well make the front page of the next issue. (providing there's no massive shakeup in the chopping board world, like when they brought out the Anti-Bacterial Polyethylene range back in Aug '02 - fair few late nights THAT month, I can tell you!)

Right, kids?

Thieves and scumbags are everywhere - how depressing! I think we should all stop worrying about it but keep our wits about us. Life is for living not worrying. I don't mean about past crimes mentioned on here, some sound horrible and nasty and I hope you all are ok and safe.


thebestnameshave gone I forgot to point out that it's also a smooth surface so slips around a lot and I'm surprised they haven't been recalled off the shelves - at least a few digits must have been accidentally sliced off. I remember aug 02 with fond memories.

(!?) Think you've got me confused.


On day 2 of the internet's existence someone made a student-politics reference to 'sheeple' and was shortly followed by someone else posting a Rik Young Ones photo. It's pretty much the rules.

(!?) Think you've got me confused.


Hmm, not convinced. ATBNHG = Full time PR, part time DJ. Lived in Hackney and Manc. Lots of cycling stories and short thrift for crime scares = Honk - antagonistic posts about binlids.


+ Posting "Clint Eastwood in Nunhead" story on PB after seeing it on here.


Not that I'm fussed, I quite liked Honk.


(day three of the internet - low level stalking when bored. Otherwise called "reading previous posts")

Blimey, do you have a file on everyone?


I really do think you have me confused with someone else though, Columbo. I've never lived in Hackney.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068. 
    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
