Here are some pictures of the old East Dulwich Odeon (formerly Pavillion) such a shame that it was demolished in 2001.


I have a feeling that if it had hung on for 4-5 years longer...The good citizens of the ED Community wouldn't have allowed it to happen - and would now have an excellent multi-use facility...A great shame :-(

Some new photos have been added to the facebook page...As well as the very fine pictures of the East Dulwich Odeon


There are some in the near vicinity like Camberwell,Catford,Elephant,Forest Hill,Old Kent Road,Peckham - I am sure you will all be amazed at some of the fine buildings which were obliterated from the South East London area with barely a peep from the local authorities regarding attempts to list/save these fine buildings...


I hope you will all enjoy them


Kind Regards ;-)

Continue to visit our page...Please help us reach 3000 fans by the end of the week!


I know it's a little cheeky but if East Dulwich has already lost it's cinema forever then it would be appreciated if everyone could help Camberwell retain it's last remaining one.


It's location a short bus ride between all the art colleges (Chelsea,Fashion,Goldsmiths,L.C.C) as well as being local to Camberwell College of Arts give it a great chance of establishing itself as a venue in central Southwark and within walking distance from all surrounding communities...We have a chance to give Camberwell a real chance to finally improve itself rather than complaining about how it never changes for the better - This building is a conduit to effect that change and perhaps the last opportunity left...


It has the potential to be an arts/cultural/community centre as well as cinema - It's what we need here! The auditorium can easily accomodate live music and theatre too!


Please Support Us


Kindest Regards,


Euse :)-D

We have now reached 3000 fans on our facebook page!


Thank you to all the good citizens of the East Dulwich community who have signed up to the page and supported our campaign so far :))


I know that perhaps everybody likes to look after their own patch and maybe not worry about neighbouring areas - quite understandable really...but there are people in Camberwell who are trying to improve the quality of life and create something positive here - Let's face it, Southwark Council's record over the last 40 years has left a lot to be desired...whether their intentions were good or ill-conceived - things should have evolved a lot better than they have :(


I like to think that a cinema/cultural building in Central Camberwell would have a good knock-on effect for East Dulwich in many ways as well as providing a local facilty within cycling/walking distance too - The ED Odeon was demolished in 2001 - imagine if it had held on just a tiny bit longer - I'm sure it would still be there...


If you could all encourage as many family,friends,neighbours and colleagues to join and support our campaign that would be hugely appreciated :))


Kindest Regards,


Victor Ferreiro (Cinema for Camberwell Green)

Please continue to visit our page - Also don't forget that this week is Camberwell Arts Festival 19th-27th June 2010


If successful in future we would consider it absolutely essential to give the building over to be used as a central hub along with Camberwell College of Arts and South London Gallery for future festivals...

Planning permission has been applied for by House of Faith (R.C.C.G) to turn the last purpose-built cinema/theatre hall in Camberwell into a church. Help us to oppose planning permission and secure an arts venue for South East London along the lines of BAC or Camden Arts Centre.



Please take a look and sign our petition if you agree with a cinema/cultural/community facility for Camberwell - Remember, it will be also to the benefit of all neighbouring communities - including East Dulwich.

Also visit our webpage or facebook page which is listed at the beginning of this thread.


Kindest Regards

Please take a look at our facebook and homepage - If you agree with our proposals for the building then sign the petition too...


Finally if there is anyone who would like to lend their advice or expertise then we would greatly appreciate it. This is intended to be a positive conduit for Camberwell to develop in a more progressive way - It wouldn't just be a venue for SE5 - it would be open to all surrounding communities and South East London too.


Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark are well below the average for venues per head of population - Nowhere else in London has had it's venues decimated to the extent of what happened here. This bad practice of the last 40 years must be reversed - we have a credible chance to do this.


Thanks Again,


euse

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By Sue · Posted

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      By theweekend · Posted

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
