I couldn't work out if that was serious or supposed to be funny 🤣

Two lots tonight? I don't think they were from the same place, but both quite loud 🙄 Snap!

I liked the bee.

I'd say it was karma, except I don't believe in it.

Well, you're a cheery sod 🤣

😮

Are these people connected to Reform? I googled what you googled, and I couldn't see anything about that?

I wasn't suggesting that M&S staff should deal directly with these aggressive people! I would have thought, however, that the shop manager could have spared five minutes to ask the police to pay a visit.

I know the police have other things to do, but couldn't they move these people on and/or arrest them if they are collecting money illegally and being aggressive? Can't M&S do something?

I'm sorry too.... Completely off topic, but Facebook used to show me loads of stuff about baby elephants. Now it shows me loads of stuff about baby gorillas. And now I've got bloody gorillas on the ED Forum 😭

This is just dreadful. Do you have this woman's contact details? These are probably the last things on your mind at the moment while you are looking after your poor puppy, but firstly, the dog who attacked is clearly both dangerous and out of control. Can it be reported to the police? Secondly, surely the owner is responsible for your vet bills? I do hope your puppy recovers quickly and so do you and your husband and children. It must have been really traumatic for all of you. Some people just shouldn't have dogs if they don't know how to train them.

Sorry to be dim. Was that coming from the shop itself, or from customers? I'd have thought the shop would have some sort of large business bin, in which case presumably Tesco will as well?

Yes I saw that. I'm not intending to give them money! I just wonder why, if they are actually collecting money under false pretences (rather than not having gone through the proper channels) they have not been prosecuted?

When you say "scam", do you mean that the money collected is not going to where they say it is?

There's a Library of Things in East Dulwich now, based at the Leisure Centre. https://participate.libraryofthings.co.uk/dulwich If you click on "Explore the Things" the things don't seem to be specific to Dulwich, so I'm not sure if every library has every thing, but there is a Rug Doctor and a steam cleaner on the list (not specifically an upholstery cleaner).
