David h you actually made my point, struggling traders or struggling families affording to eat?!?. Recession on?, really?!...

Yeah I saw this written on a wall, the problem was it written in sh&t.

More bonkers chat from people who can't see past their nose , it would be a crying shame if Iceland went,for people who can't afford W Rose, Moxons M&S would be another overpriced shop to add the list. Shame on you!!!. Anyone who do not think these places are taking the mick obviously haven't got a clue.

6.39am,6.55 and 7.05 were always late by 3-4 mins but have cleaned up their act recently....

A very apt subject for James Barber i feel....

I'm just glad its annoying James Barber.

James, i regularly get the 185 bus back home and recently noticed a massive drop in punctuality and service, do whom do i complain too?.

A toss up between Iceland and Mrs Robinsons...I know which one i would go for!.

I myself was on the sharp end of Damian's literate, but being the awesome guy i am, I'm willing to forgive and forget the rough justice he inflicted on me.

Dont take it personally Damo...but hasnt anyone noticed that East Dulwich has got the largest collection of ugly mums the world has ever seen?!?!.... I could be wrong?!?!?.

Damian it wasnt intentional, it was merely an observation oldboy.

screaming kids and ugly mums = awful combo

...

I'll take that...

Well i was going to change my name from Captain to 'Admiral' or maybe 'fieldmarshal' but i want to keep my bravado in check.....

Mayflower in West Dulwich is the best Chinese takeaway btw.

I agree with Damian H, plus i hate the way all the liberals dust off this word 'vigilante' and use it so 'liberally'!....

Someone who agrees with me, I've just fallen off my chair!.

All three of your questions are easily answered: 1) Just your general responses,very passive a sort of 'oh well nevermind' view on all this...somehow you have faith in police, which must of been somekind of hilarious quip which i havent found time to congratulate you about. 2) The word 'vigilante' is an Americanism, which is distinctly inaccurate to this situation. I'm talking about protecting communities.... Mockney - I'm not talking about you, I'm referring to Londoners as a whole....you are probably a middle england chap anyway..

benmorg, I haven't lost my temper, I'm just exasperated by your response - Londoners lives have been forever changed by this with business's and people's livelyhoods destroyed forever, yet you still have this 'I'm alright jack' mentality, my suggestion of fighting fire with fire is not for myself, but, for these self same people.... This of course, is your opinion and I respect that.

Ok benmorg, I'll give them a bunch of flowers instead and we'll see how that works whilst they're smashing the place up and thieving...

benmorg, i think your courage muscle has gone. Of course its a risk but I'm just not having it anymore...

I dont know if anyone read about the Eltham locals out in force defending local shops and businesses, i thought that wwas brilliant, I'm up for this in respect to ED.

Just spoke to the other half, all quiet on LL though nearly all shops have closed early...CO-OP is open but allowing only allowing a certain amount of people in at a time. Tense times in ED.

Thats good news,if there was another Mrs Robinson style shop in the street i think i would of topped myself.
