Last night (for those of you who did not attend) muggings were one of the priorities that the local snt teams will concentrate on. Please forward all info you may have to Sgt Cook. Look at my thread re Police info (I am hoping will be a sticky) for details of how to contact him or go to the met police website and work it out like I did.

my sister and partners school age brother have both been approached and mugged of their money and phones in peckham rye park one at gunpoint (real or fake doesnt matter) and I know through intellegence that groups of boys go on a daily basis looking for people to rob. Especially after school as a lot of teenagers congregate there after school. You have to be very vigilant as these young boys do not care and have respect for anyone including adults nowadays.

make your children aware that this is common and tell them to keep their valuables as safe as they can.It a unpredictable world and youngsters have no boundaries.

Glad to hear this is being taken seriously...and police are raising their profile in the park... not sure I would call being threatened with a bottle a case of 'teenage hyperbole'. And I had bought my son a ?20 Samsung, in the expectation that he would be less vulnerable.... but as I said to a friend recently this is SE15 (where I am) inner city etc etc.

Mark is in fact a community warden.He is based in Peckham Rye Park at the little office to the side of the toilet block (door usually open if in, out on patrol or on a rest day if closed).

He would be very interested in a decent description of the assailants if anyone has one as he makes several patrols of the park each day and would like an idea of who to look out for.

Breaks my heart they way a small minority behave, my son in the past month has been asked for his mobile three times, good job he hasn't got one eh. He told me about it several hours/ days later I think he almost thinks of it as mundane!


next time it happens I am reporting to the police.

    • In an area which (thank goodness) is stuffed with good and acceptable restaurants (East, West and Central Dulwich) Belair would have to be a real destination - hence I suggested the need for a very high quality offering which would encourage visitors to go in search of it. A restaurant next to a station is a very different beast than a country house down a side street. I know about it because I live, and have lived for nearly 40 years, pretty close. And I have gone there on a number of occasions in its different guises. Sometimes with great enjoyment, other times less so. But for a site like that to work it must deliver its promise, which because of the nature and cost of the site will have to be both high-end and not very crowded, which means high prices and probably aiming for at least twice the covers occupation most nights and some lunches. Frankly, it can't live on local trade alone (because there are too many good alternatives) - so it has to build a rep for people to travel there, and again and again.
    • But the bulk of the build is for student accommodation, with just 'some' affordable housing which will, if history is anything to go by, become much less once the scheme is started. Southwark has, I believe, quite a number of empty properties which are not in use. The number of people on Southwark's waiting list is frankly irrelevant to this scheme, which won't touch the surface. This isn't 'new housing' which is visible, but commercially profitable student bedsits (at least, the developers hope it will be commercially profitable). 
    • Does anyone know if Tommy Rooney is away? I have a boiler emergency and he isn't responding to messages. I don't really want to use someone I don't know, and I know Tommy is excellent!
