Heard confirmation from multiple other sources that Mr Beach, not only now as Censor-in-Chief-for-Forest-Hill but also Chief Snitch on SE23.life had written to NR demanding confirmation that Nathan Bowen had the requisite permissions from the site owner, despite Mr Beach's recent online denial that...

Thanks for bringing this to my attention JGD. I do a post on this thread expressing my astonishment at the way various SE23.Life contributors are embarrassing and incriminating themselves, and he launches into this attack! I really don’t want to have to go back to the police about her behaviour, but...

Astonishing threads. Absolutely nothing - Nothing - has changed in 4 years. What a thoroughly decent job they're all doing of embarrassing and incriminating themselves. I could do a line by line, but I really can't be bothered. And I think that most people who've read any of the threads will see it ...

Contact the manager of the store you visited - they have the power to cancel the notices issued by the parking companies.

SydSoc ? Are you sure ?

I *think* but I'm not sure. Quite possible that it could just be Network Rail. He's not involved as I understand it, but @JMLF may have more info?

Network Rail is paying for it and I *think* SydSoc is behind it. I've been told that the design was supposed to be shared online somewhere for feedback, but I'm not sure where that is. Just had a quick look on SydSoc Facebook page and website but couldn't see anything there. The mural will be on the...

I heard tonight that the bridge by the station is now getting a Sydenham mural, all confirmed and happening soon as I understand it

Hello again, I'm sad to report that I've been targeted again on Twitter by two sockpuppet accounts that have appeared this week. Obviously I don't know for sure who's behind them, so I won't make any claims here, but I have my suspicions - you can read for yourselves here and form your own opinions:...

Sydenham councillor Tom Copley has been appointed the new Deputy Mayor for Housing, Sadiq Khan has announced.

"why is Chris tweeting this now?" Resurrecting one of his worst fabrications. Any ideas? I think the reason is probably this. I've unlocked my Twitter account and started tweeting about local stuff again. I did a Twitter search on "SE23" yesterday and one of the tweets it threw ...

Hi. I'd largely put this whole sordid affair behind me, but two rather alarming tweets came to my attention last night. Both were subtweets (subtweet = a tweet targeting a certain person without directly mentioning them or their username) which, to anyone au fait with the Flava Baker drama, were cle...
