hi is a very strange man, my friend and I had a run in with him one afternoon, we were waiting to cross the road when a car pulled up right next to where we were waiting to cross and he staggered out of it. not sure if he was drunk or on something but he was quite clearly intoxicated on some way, he then stood in the way talking to his friend with the door open meaning that we couldnt get by so my friend said excuse me to him and tried to move around him where he slammed the car door and started screaming at her that she had run over his foot with her buggy. She hadnt touched him at all but he was hurling abuse and being incredibly nasty. we tried to argue back that he was in the way and had been asked to move and that she never actually touched him but he just kept screaming at her with abuse so we walked on and ignored him but he came after us. luckily he was not altogether there so couldnt keep up with us so we got away from him but it was scary esp as we had 2 small babies with us.


And it was def him as ive know him for years from when he used to work in a shop on berwick street in london. I used to buy fabric from him for work in london and there was a huge scandal when he walked out of the shop he worked in. (A lot of mystery around how he managed to stock this shop on lordship lane!!!)

YES me too! I went in there with my dog and he told me to get out as he's allergic, I told him he wasn't allergic the last time I was in and he just sneered at me and went back to playing computer games. I thought I'd give him the benefit of the doubt and went back in with my husband this time, once again we were sneered at and completely ignored while he chatted to his wife about the TV. We walked out sharpish and will never go back in, such a shame but I'm glad it wasn't a personal attack!

He's obviously mental


So I will pay him a visit with my "mental-o-meter"


Never shop anywhere with some who owns a shop is is mental-er than you are ( my horrible Mothers excellent advice, which is rich coming from her) anayway



Will report dack/ back


I feel a "Serge de Nimes" moment coming on, it tests most fabric "queens" metle


"Did I say 5oz Mexican batch dye , Oh so sorrrry I did mean 12oz Vegetable Indigo, on the warp and "rainbow selved"



"Ta, only askin' for now but when is your sale ?"



"Have you got a carrier bag I could have to put this in" ( never say please in this situation )


( Did I mention that I was holding a Sony SL 6200 ? )


No, so you didn't hear it bang the door frame as I came in ?


"Oh, OK then" ( Does rotating finger thing near temple )

Now forgive me if I have got the wrong end of the stick here...but do you have the mind of a cesspit HAL9000?


*absolutely ROARS with laughter*

My last post was probably removed as I was quite angered by the man and woman in the fabric shop ! First time I went in was when they opened to wish them luck and say how great it was to have the shop on Lordship Lane and how it needed a habedashry place, at that time they where having a domestic and instantly started being rude to me.I thought bad timing and left never to go back, but couple of years later desparate for some cotton I went back only to be treated in the same way .However desparate for anything now I will never go back. It is such a shame as I make lots of stuff and could have spent lots and lots of my hard earned money in there ...

    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/police-hunt-attack-south-london-b1247389.html Apologies if already posted on here - did look, couldn't find anything... 'The Metropolitan Police have appealed for help to find a man after a woman was seriously injured in an unprovoked attack in south London. The woman, in her 20s, was assaulted on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich at around 4.45pm on Monday August 25. She was treated by paramedics for injuries to her face and her jaw was broken in the attack. The victim was then taken to hospital and she continues to be supported by specialist officers. Officers are now searching for the suspect and are urging members of the public to come forward if they have information. He is described as a black man in his 30s or 40s with balding hair. He was wearing dark clothing during the attack. He is said to have approached the woman while she was by herself before swearing at her and then hitting her in the face. Detective constable Charlotte Kerr, who is leading the investigation, said: “We are working hard to find the person we believe is responsible for this senseless and unprovoked attack. “While we continue our enquiries, we hope our increased neighbourhood police presence will offer some reassurance to women and girls throughout the local area. “If you saw anything on Monday, 25 August – particularly between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs - do not hesitate to get in touch with us. “No matter how small you think your information is, it may be the key that unlocks our investigation.” Any witnesses or anyone who can help identify the suspect is asked to please contact the Met via 101, quoting 5018/25AUG or 01/7897951/25. Those who wish to share information anonymously can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.'
    • I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).
    • We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery
