Impressions of Dulwich & Peckham by an elderly American traveller.


Recommended Posts

Did he actually go to Peckham?


He seems to have completely missed the vibrant African, largely evangelical Christian population that has a high profile on Rye Lane. I havent seen much in the way of Islamic oppression of women on Rye Lane, but I have seen a box of giant edible snails for sale; shame those dont get a mention. If he heard Middle Eastern music, that would have been Asian music from those shops run by Asians.


"Peckham Rye" is a large and rather pleasent park is it not? With a lively population of Green Parakeets that also dont get a mention.

the concentration in Peckham Rye is skewed towards the very poor, the struggling, and the immigrant. Walking the streets one runs up against the evidences of the Islamic oppression of women everywhere:


Oh do cock off, Roy.


Can't blame you about the boner for Ros, er, sorry, the vivacious young woman in Review, though. I don't think Review has anything to do with London Review either. Although I'm willing to be corrected on that.


Mind you, shouldn't be too harsh, you should see my math. Terrible, it is.

    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath. 
    • Another dramatic spike the previous May 24 -  both crimes around the car park -  could this be related to the massively increased numbers of people around Gala time?
    • No, no need to shut down tfl, just cut out the unnecessary and expensive beauracracy, simples.  Sep, you don't even live here.
