OK here's the running order for the music:



12pm DJ/Open Mic (see below)


1pm The Relatives (offshoot of the Dulwich Ukulele Club, R.I.P.)


2pm Ben Holland


3pm The Bara Bara Band


4pm John McClean and The Clan




Each band's set will be 45 minutes.


The open mic is first come first served and is open to anybody who would like to come and give us all a song or tune - anything you want (as long as it's suitable for a street party where there will be children and other sensitive souls :) ).


There will be a whiteboard by the music gazebo, and singers will be in order of writing their names on the board.


One song each to start with.


The booked bands will start at 1pm so if you want to do an open mic spot please make sure you get there in time to put your name down early.


The music gazebo will be in the section of Crystal Palace Road between The Actress and The Great Exhibition, and will be towards The Actress end this year.


Please do come, all are welcome - and please bring food and drink to share!


Fingers crossed for good weather!!

Thanks to everyone who came along - a great afternoon was had by all. And thanks to The Goose Is Out for (once again) organising the music, to the musicians (The Relatives, Ben Holland, The Bara Bara Band and, rocking the end of the party, John McClean and The Clan) who gave their time in return only for liquid refreshment, to the DJs, to the organisers and helpers, face-painters, balloon-doggers, bunting-makers and gazebo-erecters. And thanks to everyone who brought some food and drink to share with their neighbours and friends - that is the point of the Big Lunch, after all.


* edited to give names of musicians performing at the 2015 joint Crystal Palace Road / Ulverscroft Road Big Lunch street party.


** And I forgot to thank all the residents who kindly moved their vehicles from the street on the day of the party - it made a big difference so thank you too.

Thanks are also due to Enzo (hope I've spelled your name right, Enzo) who supplied the electricity for the bands!


Several of the original organisers of the Crystal Palace Road/Ulverscroft Road (as the roads are so close to each other, we have been alternating the party location each year) street party have moved or are moving out of the area.


The core group is becoming more and more depleted, with consequently the pre-party preparation (it starts months before) falling on just a few shoulders this year, all already busy people.


If you live on Crystal Palace Road or Ulverscroft Road (or adjoining roads) and you'd like to see this annual event continue and blossom, please consider volunteering to help - the more volunteers there are, the less for each one to do!

      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?

      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.

      Charter East Dulwich school

      By McMurphy · Posted

      interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
