wtf...went of my usual Saturday perambulation to Croydon in search of 'tramps' buffet' goodies and....got to the Park Hill Park gate to find my way barred...because there was a Red Deer Stag at large!:eek:

How the fuck?



She's not wrong; what a beaut!:D
 
I didn't realise there were any Red Deer anywhere near Croydon.

ETA: Apart from the old pub that's now a supermarket. :(
Me neither. I heard something about it maybe coming up the railway lines...even so it must be a fair old gallop (???) to get from the nearest deery area to Croydon?:confused:
 
Uh oh...

Thats no surprise. These days everyone is trying to sell social housing and housing assc. property come to that.
But they are encouraging the building of lots of "affordable" housing :rolleyes:

How come Foxtons waited until after the riots to open in Croydon? Did they know something we didn't?

I've noticed all the for sale singes in Croydon say 0% commission. We keep getting letters through the door asking is we want to sell. They seem desperate for a piece of Croydon.
 
This is why Croydon gets a bad rep... This actually happened in Coulsdon, but has the words Croydon plastered all over it. Couldson is 5 miles from the centre of Croydon. Its like a stabbing happening in East Dulwich and saying it was in Brixton.

No it is not, because Coulsdon is (mostly) in Croydon but East Dulwich is not in Brixton.

It is like if a stabbing happened in East Dulwich, saying that it happened in Southwark. Which it would have done.

I’d have thought the more important part of the story is the disgusting behaviour of the girl rather than a debate about geography.

In the absence of the stocks she should be paraded round Croydon town centre with a placard saying "I punched an 87 year old woman in the face".

I agree, but my innate pedantry and need to defend Croydon, meant I couldn't let that go unchallenged.

Hopefully given she's only 14, her own dear, old nan will give her what for!
