The Snorky Propaganda machine designed to m ke ED LESS desirable to move to and reduce house prices



1) The terrible street violence

2) The proximity to that terrible peckham place and its unemployed populace

3) The drugs use - indeed, there was a call for a needle exchange lately - just shows how bad it actually is

4) The amount of betting shops - always full of footpads an ne-er do wells

That'll be cars, then.

Motorcycles park for free.


East Dulwich is crap because it's basically one road with lots of small shops. And that's all.

I love Dulwich, IT IS THE CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE as far as I am concerned, the only place to live in London.


I love Nero's, Moo Too, Dr Boo, Hope & Greenwood, Black Cherry, Mrs Robinson, William Rose, Moxons and ... White Stuff! There are so many other reasons too, there is a lovely park just a hop and a skip off Lordship Lane, nice places to eat and drink, good hairdressers, the super dry cleaners/cobblers next to the post office, even my munchkins love it. I can even have the inside of my car cleaned of Ribena and melted chocolate. I find everyone really friendly.


All that is missing is a branch of Sephora and then it would be simply perfect!

Following the slating this place has had in the Wanted section, I have booked to get my hair cut there later today. I've always been happy enough with it, but seem to be a small minority, so going to go and make a judgement later...

Nothing wrong with the place, just the snotty, self-satisfied people that populate it now. The thrusting, preening, "Oh my God, look at us, we've arrived!" types, who pay over-the-top prices for very average, working class Victorian terraces stuck in a ditch in South London.

The beer is flowing like piss

The piss is flowing down the drain

A goodnight kiss comes on the end of a fist

The evening ends in a stain


On Lordship Lane


A man kicks his wife in the kidneys

Nobody's feeling any pain

Stacked up alongside the others

Throwing up beer in the rain


On Lordship Lane


On Lordship Lane everything ends in tears and pain

Misery and shame


Lordship Lane


Throw a brick at the street light

Kick the baby in the head

Smash up the cat with a baseball bat

Everything winds up dead


On Lordship Lane


On Lordship Lane everything ends in tears and pain

Misery and shame


Lordship Lane

    • Miranda Sawyer of the (once) Observer has done a piece on festival on Insta which might be of-interest.  Councils are private companies, imo. They make money for themselves, imo.  I do not think by law that they have to follow anything brought up by a consultation, this is for 'face' only - hence, LTNs and everything else.  
    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.
