Hi all,


New member of the site, have been living in ED since May (Copleston Rd) and generally loving it.


However last night was woken up by a car driving down the road slowly and repeatedly sounding its horn. About 1:30am. It's a one way road but he must have been round the block a couple of times as it went on just long enough to wake up my 4 month old baby.


I can see myself getting just about wound up enough to go outside and 'have a word' one day...probably result in my being stabbed or whatever but who the f--- thinks this is acceptable behaviour?


No particular point to this posting other than getting this off my chest and sharing...


Cheers,


Joel

Hi Joel, sorry to hear that, it's annoying enough any time of day let alone the early hours of the morning. Was it a mini-cab driver, they have a habit of beeping their horns until they get a response, especially if the driver isn't sure of the house? We get quite a bit of it opposite where we live as there are a number of really big houses split into flats, but it usually occurs early evening. Hope it doesn't happen again.

east dulwich station end, just opposite Hayes Grove (the newish housing estate). Thanks for your comments all, it does happen just a little bit too often for my liking. I have called the police twice on their non-emergency peckham station no. in the last 6 months for similar stuff. Once when a guy pulled up outside, well a couple of houses down, and parked and and sounded the horn repeatedly for 20 mins at 3am. Police car came immediately (fair play to em) and 'moved him on'.


Last night, was not a mini cab, was a small car full of young guys and playing some incredibly loud music, which only lasted 15 seconds or so. Then the horn stuff.

In the past I lived next door in a different area to a guy in a flat who was dealing. For 6 months there were people outside his flat all through the night at about half hour intervals shouting his name. He would drop the keys down as he was on the top floor. Drove me insane through lack of sleep. He eventually went to prison. The whole property had some very troublesome tenants in it. I sympathise.

Hi Joel_mole,

Probably a good idea to tell the South Camberwell ward Safer Neighbourhood Team about every indicent as they cover your road. They're not 24/7 but they will work is crime and anti social behaviour reduction and look for patterns etc. They'd probably benefit from any numbers plate information.


Contact details for them are.

    • There is also one for Goose green https://www.police.uk/pu/your-area/metropolitan-police-service/goose-green/?yourlocalpolicingteam=your-team Disclaimer: only passing on what I have found by searching. No involvement in organising it.  
    • It is a challenge.  These sorts of services are increasingly expensive to deliver as fewer and fewer people use them.  Most people don't want to have to go back to using their lunch hour to queue up at the bank or Post Office.  So the options  are - reduce the service, make it more expensive or the tax payer subsidises it.  
    • Surely increasing profits are not the reason? It's more about  preventing massive losses? You can't keep things going at vast expense because a few people still use them. We would still be in the stone age. There are always going to be some people who find it hard to use "modern" technology (which has been going for decades). I would have thought the answer was for those people to learn how to do the things they need to do? I'm sure lots of help must be available?  I'm one of the ancient ones, and around the end of the nineties I went on a free course to be taught how to go online and use the internet. It was quite a steep learning curve, but so is learning anything new. So in previous years was learning to use a PC and word processing. So was learning Excel and spreadsheets.  If you need to use something, you have to learn how to do it! Some people may not have the mental  capacity to do this, but in that case surely they will be getting support in other areas of their daily life already? And as regards the possible  closure of the crown post office (note - possible) we don't know what alternative arrangements may be made should this happen, so it seems a bit premature to be protesting about it at this point.
