Hello all,


I lived in East Dulwich around 2015/16, and one of the things that always stuck with me was the regular sight of hand-written posters pasted up around the area, although they seemed to be mostly concentrated around Goose Green. They were neatly written, political and religious in nature, terse and sometimes cryptic in wording, and were often accompanied by newspaper cuttings. They referred to themselves as The People's Noticeboard and would say things like:


HOW MANY LUNG BREATHING THINGS WITH NOSTRILS NOT ABOVE FOUR INCHES FROM THE GROUND DIE OF LUNG CANCER? ANSWER VERY FEW.


They would often sign-off with a request for people to write to the Queen directly at Buckingham Palace. I've done some searching online but can find no reference to the posters, although this may speak more to my googling skills than any lack of existing evidence. Does anyone have any memory of these posters? Do you have picturs of them or perhaps even an original copy of one? Are they still being put up? Has anyone looked into them before? And does anyone know who was responsible for creating them? I've attached a photograph I took of one of the posters during my time there if it helps to jog memories. Any information would be of use.


Thanks,

Jamie

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
