Is anyone else disturbed by Dulwich Hamlets parties and events? I'm not opposed to them hiring out their venue, but would like for them to have some sort of sound-proofing like most nightclubs and a cut-off time. Is there anyone else out there, who lives locally to the club, also affected?

What?


I live close by and have been sat outside for much of the day. I cant hear what I wanted to on my "music system" but i quite like the sounds drifting across. Its not like its every other night. Soundproofing? Sounds like most of the activity is outdoors so I doubt that would help


Good luck to em.

We live 2 roads away from Dulwich Hamlet Football Ground and heard the event all day. Nope we didnt mind it at all. It was during the day...and finished by early evening.


And these sort of parties are a good little earner for the football ground...which you cant really begrudge in these tough financial times that Football clubs are going through.

Could have given me a lift...that aeroplane would have got me to my destination in no time! As it was, I was very late.


Are Franster and the Franster-Weegeeletts going to be contributing to the noise pollution tomorrow too?

Hey everyone. Great to hear your views. Actually, I wasn't necessarily questioning yesterday's events. In fact, I like the fact that they have events on during the day and of course they should absolutely earn money for the club. I also like the sounds of the football throughout the winter. My gripe, I suppose, was more about the late night parties which I am also not opposed to, but would prefer it if they could arrange for the windows to be kept closed and for the noise to be kept down a little bit ... just so that I can sleep. I don't want the club to stop earning money. This was not my point.

ah sorry we had a full car with the Franster-Weegeeletts and their stuff


No it will be just my goodself contributing to the football fuelled noise pollution tommorrow!


Coming back to the main thread...I cant say that I have heard much noise from the club in the nights when parties are on.


I thought the club had air conditioning in the bar...if not then maybe bringing down the industrial fans from the gym might help with the heat inside the club.

xxxxxxxx


So far as I know the air conditioning was on!


But there's an issue with noise from fans if it's a gig, maybe less of a prob if it's a party.


ETA: Fans as in cooling things, I mean, not people :))

Thanks for the sensible suggestion. Industrial fans (or air con) sound like a great compromise. Actually, I don't know if the noise is from football fans or parties, but it's the music rather than people noise that carries across the pitch and it can be very loud. Of course, it is worse in the summer because the windows are open, but we also have a right to sleep with the windows open too. Perhaps the industrial fans could be the way forward.

Their licence is supposed to run to 1 or 2am

Even if the licence runs to 2am - noise is expected to be contained. I would defintiely have a word with the liscensing section because open windows that allow music and entertainments to spill out is probably something they would have a view on. The premises will be required to do something about it.

Actually, I have been disturbed by music well after 1am. Less so this summer, but last year, I had to get out of bed around 2.30am and tell them to turn the music down. I was not impressed. The following night there was another party. i had 2 nights without sleep and was ready to kill someone. Admittedly it's not been so bad this summer, but there have been a few nights when I've been kept awake. I only have 1 day off a week and sleep at the weekend is really needed. I really don't want the club to change venue hire but some consideration to music noise would be really appreciated.

I've just looked at their licence. You can view it here


The sale of alcohol from the bar is only licensed till 11.00 pm


And no part of the license allows them to have music or other entertainments beyond midnight (earlier on Sundays) with dancing limitted to 9pm.


AND it also says as part of their license that - '348 - All windows will be fixed shut'.


I hate to be a stickler on this but the licence they hold would have been granted with consideration for local environmental impact and it sounds as though they clearly are breaching the terms of their license on a regular basis.

      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?

      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.
