Mark - a great site, great idea, and very much needed. Thankyou.


I just wondered what you think about adding an 'Introduce yourself' sticky to make the place even friendlier? People could post as much or as little they liked.


Hell...I'll just start shall I?


I'm Matt and live in East Dulwich, and am one of those faceless commuters seen every morning at the station. I can also (sometimes!) be spotted jogging round Peckham Rye park with my iPod, and perhaps more often, in one or two of our half decent bars.

Hi Matt


Now, on my list of things to do for this site, I have 'create a field where people can write a bit about themselves so that it appears on their profile page'. God know when I'll get round to it though!


Glad you like the site, thanks for using it


Mark

Good idea MattC


I'm Jo. I can sometimes be seen riding a folding bike, badly, around Dulwich Village & East Dulwich. I've only just got it and I'm a bit scared of the road. After 2 years in the area I think I've tried out almost every local eating place and infrequently check out the bars.

Indeed what a great website & hurrah to Matt for starting off the intros. Well I am currently living in Nth London but will be moving to East Dulwich this weekend (12th May), I work in Southwark (Bermondsey) so am vaguely familiar with the area but just wondered if there are any links for "new to the areas like myself"?


I would be grateful for any info on things to do, places to go, where to eat, shop & just hang out. I have a friend coming over from Australia soon for 8 weeks so it would be to be pre-armed with some good local knowledge.


As for me, I am 36, work & as you know about to move to East Dulwich, interested in local community safety & enviro issues. I ride a little 125 motorbike, enjoy wide open spaces (especially near water), I have a surfboard with L plates, but enjoy sufring the net too.


Look forward to hearing from anyone with local knowledge.


Cheers GG

      Jay in garden missing tail

      By Kelpie · Posted

      A Jay appeared in our garden yesterday evening and is still there now. Quite large and healthy looking but seems (to my completely ignorant self) to be missing his/her tail feathers which is perhaps why they’re hanging about. I’ve left out some seeds and water but not sure what else can be done? Any keen ornithologists or wildlife carers nearby?

      Cyclists taking over paths!!

      By Spartacus · Posted

      Hen123, despite the stats, it still doesn't mean cyclists are safe to ignore the rules.  There's an old joke when a 95 year old granny with poor eyesight was asked if she had been involved in any accidents during her driving career, and she replies none but I've seen plenty in my rear view mirror  I have seen so many near misses (both as a bus user, driver and pedestrian) where a cyclist has done something unexpected or illegal and fear the day that its not a near miss.

      Half Moon Montessori Nursery: amazing! opposite Judith Kerr

      By sedm · Posted

      I agree. I feel so lucky to have found this nursery. It’s very nurturing but I’ve also been amazed at the phonics etc they do - it’s far superior to what I’ve experienced at other nurseries in the area

      Cyclists taking over paths!!

      By Hen123 · Posted

      That is clearly not true. I see car drivers breaking the law on an hourly basis - jumping red lights, speeding, not obeying the general rules. Plus they are operating considerably more dangerous machinery and should have a greater responsibility of care to other road uses. You can see who causes the most harm by the stats.
