Hi all,


New member of the site, have been living in ED since May (Copleston Rd) and generally loving it.


However last night was woken up by a car driving down the road slowly and repeatedly sounding its horn. About 1:30am. It's a one way road but he must have been round the block a couple of times as it went on just long enough to wake up my 4 month old baby.


I can see myself getting just about wound up enough to go outside and 'have a word' one day...probably result in my being stabbed or whatever but who the f--- thinks this is acceptable behaviour?


No particular point to this posting other than getting this off my chest and sharing...


Cheers,


Joel

Hi Joel, sorry to hear that, it's annoying enough any time of day let alone the early hours of the morning. Was it a mini-cab driver, they have a habit of beeping their horns until they get a response, especially if the driver isn't sure of the house? We get quite a bit of it opposite where we live as there are a number of really big houses split into flats, but it usually occurs early evening. Hope it doesn't happen again.

east dulwich station end, just opposite Hayes Grove (the newish housing estate). Thanks for your comments all, it does happen just a little bit too often for my liking. I have called the police twice on their non-emergency peckham station no. in the last 6 months for similar stuff. Once when a guy pulled up outside, well a couple of houses down, and parked and and sounded the horn repeatedly for 20 mins at 3am. Police car came immediately (fair play to em) and 'moved him on'.


Last night, was not a mini cab, was a small car full of young guys and playing some incredibly loud music, which only lasted 15 seconds or so. Then the horn stuff.

In the past I lived next door in a different area to a guy in a flat who was dealing. For 6 months there were people outside his flat all through the night at about half hour intervals shouting his name. He would drop the keys down as he was on the top floor. Drove me insane through lack of sleep. He eventually went to prison. The whole property had some very troublesome tenants in it. I sympathise.

Hi Joel_mole,

Probably a good idea to tell the South Camberwell ward Safer Neighbourhood Team about every indicent as they cover your road. They're not 24/7 but they will work is crime and anti social behaviour reduction and look for patterns etc. They'd probably benefit from any numbers plate information.


Contact details for them are.

    • It's also worth noting that heat, direct sunshine and dehydration all exacerbate the effects of alcohol on the human body. So get yourself out there and get truly spangled at a fraction of the cost.
    • Common sense does not prevail. Keep saying things that need to be heard, whether some people are bored of hearing it or not.  
    • For clarity,  since the heat seems to be getting to people - my friends in Hampshire, Essex, Cornwall tell me that the same insanity is happening there - probably in other counties to! I have in the past seen adults walking last year with  young children with no hat or to the best of my knowledge suns-cream on and idiots in Dulwich Park allowing their children or who knows maybe it is the au pair or nanny taking the kids to the park when it is over 30 degrees.. I rest my case - doesn’t matter if you have 4 feet or 2 - 4 feet suffer more as generally have a coat and no protection on their feet / 2 feet at least have foot protection. Like I said, I am just joining  the conversation - everyone has a right to their own opinion. For all you know or anyone, if a person has taken a dump might have been unwell, couldn’t find toilet in time.. numerous reasons - mental health problems, homeless whatever. Not pleasant I agree, but get a pair of rubber gloves and deal with it. We all live in the same community and in this heat with kids about, would have thought plus flies etc - do it if you live on the same street or area / people just walk past I assume and god knows how long council would take to come.  Says nothing about human nature - not my problem… seems to be the way of the world in towns these days.   
    • I don't think it's just dog-owners who are half-wits. An actual human has taken a dump in a newspaper and left it lying on CP Road. Flies are having a field day. I ought to tell the council but pity the poor person sent to clean it up.
