This garden will not stay nice if parents allow their children to climb on and damage the raised beds, run across the flower beds and wildflower meadows. There are playgrounds within the park this sort of activity is designed for. If you're asked politely to stop your children behaving badly, have the decency to accept you are in the wrong and don't abuse concerned local residents because of your obnoxious view of your own self-importance. If the woman last saturday that did this, is reading this you really need to consider how your rudness and lack of respect will reflect upon your childrens views of how to be decent members of society.

It's a shame you missed it Renata. It was a lovely day for the opening. As well as the CGS & Big Lottery funding, additional support came from a few very kind donors for seating and from the very generous residents of Peckham Rye, Nunhead, East Dulwich and beyond in their support of the Friends of Peckham Rye annual fete. (Date for your diaries, this years will be on September 1st).

Just had an update on the opening times. Quadron, the park maintenance company will open and close the garden. It will be open from 10am - 5pm everyday (earlier in winter), including weekends (except the first sunday each month, when it will be closed for maintenance. Of course volunteers for maintenance will be more than welcome on those days.) Temporary signage will be posted in the next few days and permanent signs erected soon.

The garden will be open from 8.30 till 4.30 from tomorrow. Signage will be erected soon. Unfortunately, the agreement for unlocking/locking the garden starts tomorrow. (The delay, an oversight in planning. Just a small hiccup.)

So sorry! Morph was such a cute little dog. :'(

I moved my dogs to The Neighbourhood vets for various reasons. Convenience of location being just one. It's close enough to walk to and if I do need to drive, there's parking out front and unrestricted on the road. Another reason was one of my dog's dread of 'the vet'. I was with Lomax, as was then and then with Brockwell Vets. My dog needed surgery at both and learned to associate both places with being handled in places that hurt the most, so a simple visit became quite traumatic for her. I've had to take both my dogs to the new vet a few times since they've opened and so far, my vetphobic dog is quite happy to trot in through the door. My other fearless dog was spayed there a few weeks ago and I found the care and friendliness of the staff great, even receiving a courtesy call to check on her the day following surgery. The premises being bright and spacious as well as the friendliness and more importantly, the professionalism of the vets and staff just adds to the experience. For me and my dogs, a very welcome new addition to our community. Oh, and they're on FaceBook! :)) And, although not a decision making element, I do enjoy a nice cup of coffee made by someone else! ;-)

I spoke to one of the guys yesterday that was working on this area. He told me it was to put in two pitches. I too was confused re the drainage issue.

Been in a couple of times since they've opened and my dog pulls into the vets, rather than her usual panic fuelled pulling back from them. Very friendly and welcoming!

It got into Harris Girls Academy and was caught and taken away by a Police dog handler. I'd imagine it would have been taken to Battersea, but am not sure. At least it's safe for the moment.

Anyone know when they're due to open?

Moron is mild over what I think of the scum!

It's been cancelled!

The parent and child parking bays at Sainsburys Carl!! Just flash your lights!

Fat foul liver - Canabalism in East Dulwich!

RMT's Arwyn Thomas has won the Industrial Tribunal case.

Thanks for that Ianr, my knowledge is obviously woefully out of date. Saying that though, the footpaths within PRP are not designated as shared paths either. :))

Both pedestrians and dogs have right of way over cyclists in Peckham Rye Park! There are no shared paths due to the fact that cycling is not allowed in the park under local byelaws. The council in it's wisdom and realising they were unable to police the bylaw effectively, simply amended the sinage within the park to 'please cycle responsibly'. The bylaw has never been changed. So if you do cycle in Peckham Rye don't think it's your right, it's not! And if you're coming up behind a pedestrian, whether they have a dog or not, or are picking up poo or not, just wind your neck in and slow the heck down!:))

Belt n Braces! Rather see a thread complaning about it, than one expressing sympathy though.
