To the young woman learning to drive with the ?Red? driving school. You stopped at the junction of Tyrell Rd. and Hindman Rd. tonight at about 8.15pm. I must have seemed to be suffering road rage as you sat blocking the junction on the instruction of your driving instructor. I had to get past and get home to the toilet otherwise I would have had a wee accident. I was not angry with you and your instructor was at fault for blocking the junction. I am sorry if you were upset or thought I was just being horrible, I had terrible gut pains and couldn?t wait for him to end his chat, he should have made you park across the road freeing up the junction, and I hope you aren?t fazed by my action, please try and understand why I had to get past.


Wee Dougal.

All new cars should be fitted with a flashing brown light and 'raspberry' siren to alert other roasd users when such a calamity is in the offing - it wouldn't be confused with an emergency vehicle and it would help prevent road rage and facilitate a more courteous and understanding relationship between the city's thousands of motorists:


"No, no, let him go. He's got his brown light on, he needs to pass more than I do the poor chap."

Many thanks for all your kind posts and PM?s. I made it with about three tenth?s of a second to go. I was doubled over with gut cramp but my old mothers Acorn stair chair saved the day. And always remember, never put off going to the toilet when you have a car journey ahead of you, especially during the Olympics. Cheers Wee Dougal.

      Nursery school

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
