I have just driven from Brixton to East Dulwich and had to divert through Dulwich Village rather than going straight down in to Herne Hill. The police had the road all taped off, a 37 bus was clearly involved but I wondered what more? On a dark, wet night like tonight I do hope it wasn't a cyclist.

Anna, I agree with you....the administrator took off one of my threads from the main section, a transport issue, that they said was not East Dulwich specific. Well Mr/Mrs/Ms administrator, I repeat....a little more flexibility. I assume many of the passengers on the bus were East Dulwich residents, therefore this thread was perfectly suited to the main section.

Apologies if it annoyed you TonQuinn but, as mentioned via PM, your post "Lady Gaga tickets wanted" was not an East Dulwich specific issue and was therefore moved from the ED issues section and into the Wanted section. There was no discussion about transport or buses.
Thanks TonyQuinn - I agree with his point that he (I assume its a man) thought I was purely asking what the bus had hit however I originally posted it in the 'general section' so people in East Dulwich would know to avoid the area when travelling to and from Herne Hill and Brixton during the evening. Several of the bus routes were a complete mess making it very hard for my partner to get home....clearly admin thought he knew better.

Hi *Anna*, it was not a case of me "knowing better", you simply never mentioned the traffic problems in your post, just a request to know information about an accident in Herne Hill.


[added] You did mention you were diverted whilst driving but not that the bus routes were a complete mess.

    • Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next. 
    • IMO, Sealy, the best nights sleep you'll ever have.  
    • I don’t know what the shop was originally next to the big St Christopher’s but if Holland and Barrett are taking it over then surely it’s good to have a choice on Lordship Lane? The Camberwell H&B is always empty but the Brixton branch busy.  I remember when the Marks & Spencer food shop was Iceland? Now the M&S is a very busy store and at the time regenerated the high street!
    • Nor would I have done, but it came up when I googled John Lewis reviews. Do you not trust TrustPilot reviews? Even allowing for the fact that many people only post reviews when they have had poor service, 27% one star reviews is indicative of something wrong, I would say. That's 27% of 76,392 reviews. That's an awful lot of people who don't  think the service they got from John Lewis was even worth two stars, let alone more. Screenshot attached.
