But surely these were only posted because it was a particularly weird situation? And local.


It's not like anyone was posting pictures of injuries.


It was posting the car number plate which worried me slightly, though I'm not sure why.

Because it had crashed after fitting into an extremely tight space, but mainly surely because it had crashed on the pavement outside a local school. And could have happened when there were children/other people standing there.


I can't understand who you don't get it!


I imagine the person who took the photos intended to post them on here when s/he took them. This is a local forum and I would have thought it was exactly the kind of thing which is of interest to local people/parents, who would otherwise probably never have known about it.


And who can now push for safety measures near the school which evidently had already been asked for.

It would have been ghoulish if somebody had been killed or badly hurt, yes.


As they weren't, then I can't see the problem.

Thank goodness I don't have the energy to entertain certain arguments on the forum.


I guess everyone is entitled to an opinion & it's quite clear we all have different mindsets.


The title clearly accident on lordship lane, if you find an accident ghoulish, it might be wise not to click on the thread! Simple.....

    • 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.
