MissSophie

Thank you for posting the links - I had one in my garden who was in a very bad way but the time I got to finding the appropriate charity to call, he had managed to jump over the fence and disappeared. He was in a lot of pain, poor thing. Will keep this handy in case he reappears.

If this is how strongly you feel perhaps we can then, as dog owners, ask joggers, children or adults without dogs to not permit, use or access the dog walking perimeter? I am flattened by joggers when I go there, all trying to do their PB and striding past anyone without any care of sharing the path or social distancing. No? I thought as much. Can?t have one rule and then ignore others. Let?s be respectful of each other, given the circumstances we are all facing.

Good evening, have you or someone you know had their car windows smashed last night/this morning in Camberwell Grove? It happened to my flatmate and we have been told that at least 4 other cars had the same thing done. There has been a real spike in crime lately and we want to get the police more involved. If you have suffered the same please can you PM me so we can combine our statements and shout a bit louder! Thanks

Sorry to report but just witnessed someone on a moped cut through a lock and drive off with a red, road bike which was locked to another (this was secured with a D-lock). It wa on the corner of Barry Road and Peckham Rye, outside Roy Brooks Estate Agent. The moped number plate was chipped but it had R15 and NW. Some kind passers by stopped as I wanted to make sure I wasn't mistaken. They have contacted the police. Really sorry if that was your bike. There was little else we could do, but please contact the police and let me know if I can do anything further.

Just a tip I found useful, when you get your next motorbike cover, write your number plate all over it. It may diffuse anyone from stealing it, as it will be harder to sell. Unless they nick the bike as well! Sorry to hear of your woes, mine was stolen outside my place on Hindmans Road and I managed to get the numberplate of the van they loaded it into. Police still came up empty handed.

apologies for the echo!

I have received an answer from the council, "In answer to your enquiry regarding the temporary installation of yellow lines along Hindmans Rd. The lines have been installed to enable Thames Water to install an anti flood device to prevent internal sewer flooding to 20 Hindmans Rd.They are necessary to maintain traffic flow during the works. Works are due to start on Monday 28th April and are expected to be completed by 19th May.Once occupation of site is in place the lines either side of site can be removed and remaining linage opposite site will be removed on completion of the works. I have attached a copy of the traffic order advertising the restriction.I would like to also inform you parking restrictions will not be enforced until Monday 28th April. I hope this has answered your enquiry satisfactorily,please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any more help. Regards Caroline Law Network Co-ordinator Southwark Council caroline.law@southwark.gov.uk" There is also an attachement of the public notice - clearly not public enough in my opinion!

I too live in Hindmans and am flummoxed by this. Is this because of the new development that is being discussed behind 16-20 and the need to get emergency service access? It would explain why both sides have been painted (for fire engines to turn if need be)However, this can't take place before the developments are actually built, can it? It seems insane, and highly impractical. Tyrell Road and Oakhurst Grove is also going to be affected. Please help James and Renata!

That is a shame. I bought some lovely pieces there and the owner, Abigail was always a delight. Hope it continues to do well elsewhere.

Lordy, guess I will have to sit it out and wait for a freezing partner to come in - thanks for the updates.

@JosephineB - hang on in there, my partner is on same bus and apparently there is another numpty bus driver refusing to move and blocking the entire road; apparently the police have just shown. I guess you would be able to see that as well! Are the buses actually going up/down Dog Kennel Hill do you know?

That's great news, was it the old man I mentioned earlier? Whoever it is, I hope they get the treatment and care they so clearly deserve.

IF you are talking about the elderly man who is often found wondering around the park with no shoes on (very keen on feeding the birds); he used to be a POW and I have been told that due to the abuse he suffered there, his feet get very painful so he can only go barefoot. I used to talk with him some time ago, but have noticed recently that his behaviour has changed and he seems more aggressive. It's all incredibly sad if this is the same guy you all think it could be - please, I know it's an inconvenience, but call the warden when you hear it; whoever it may be clearly needs help. The phone call is really the only option you all have to silence him. James Barber, could you post the relevant telephone numbers please?

*sigh* bang goes my property value. Thanks and sorry for getting the wrong name!

Thanks DJKillaQueen, however I have tried to call Southwark with this, (it's more about over-crowding in a small flat, making all rooms bedrooms etc) they won't come and see the property as it's not a specific noise-related issue. I'm at a loss of what to do, I just want to inform the owner of the property as I don't think he knows that it's been used for these purposes. Dubloke - as an estate agent, what could you recommend? Thanks again
