Hi Julie I'm not sure if you've already completed your memories campaign...... but my Nan used to use the public baths during the War. She featured on television in 1998 when there was a report on Dulwich Baths (London's oldest swimming pool, Dulwich Public Baths). She also featured in a two page pullout in a newspaper as she was one of the last remaining users of the baths. PM me if you you're interested.

Hello I just had a search for you on the internet and it says Franklins Restaurant and Le Chardon Restaurant both have disabled access (see links below) http://www.themobilefoodguide.com/select/info6849.php http://www.themobilefoodguide.com/select/info6851.php

Great work Soully...now start looking out for that missing TORTOISE :)

Hi Jayne Have a look at this thread, it looks like it's an ongoing problem which certainly needs investigating: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,358829,page=1

I went to Nigeria about 20 years ago. I loved the fact that it was so different from anywhere I had travelled to previously. I was VERY fortunate enough in that I stayed in a 5 star hotel (thanks to a generous friend of mine), but also visited the downtown areas too, I saw the markets and witnessed the odd person begging too, but I also visited upmarket Victoria Island. I found the people friendly and all in all a wonderful experience. In my experience travelling opens your eyes to some wonderful people and cultures....P.S its always useful if you know someone in the country to show you around etc.

Hi d0m1n1ka Did you ever go to Nigeria? What did you think of it?

Ditto Peckham Rose.... I shop in Peckham as well as shopping in East Dulwich....

Sorry Ian, I meant to say it flew OVER the Isle Of White at 15: 30, see below: 0845 Take off from RAF Coningsby in Yorkshire 1030 Land at RAF Duxford 1340 Land at RAF Biggin Hill, Lunch and media interviews 1530 Take off fly to the coast over the Isle of Wight then back to London 1615 (Aprrox) Fly past over the Cabinet War Rooms.

The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight - the Spitfire and Hurricane aircraft - left the Isle Of White at 15:30 and completed the fly-past over Churchill War Rooms at approx 16:00 - 16:15

Yes it will be on the ITV News...6.30pm and the 10pm bulletin

Good on you Dano for being so honest. People like you put my faith back in human nature !

Here are the details for the Jerk Festival at Brockwell Park this year. http://londonist.com/2010/08/preview_jerk_cook-off_the_horniman.php Last years Jerk Festival at Horniman's was great!!!

yes I agree with Mr Ben - the best way is to walk fast in and out of the office, almost running, then sit at your desk and randomly type loudly at your keyboard. You can also hide holiday papers and articles under your keyboard and slip them out for some leisurely reading (I have learn't these skills from my colleague sitting opposite me).

Brilliant Casper! I hope to follow suit soon and maybe mentor or offer my help to them in some way.

I too was going to suggest Kids Company. Camila Batmanghelidjh (Founder of Kids Company)and the team behind her do some really inspiring work in the borough (mainly Camberwell and the surrounding areas). 'Kids Company' turns around the lives of troubled inner-city children to help change their lives. Their work is truly inspiring.

Has anyone been to Ibiza during the winter/off-season months? What is the weather like and are any clubs, bars, restaurants or shops open ? Which part of the island would you recommend staying?

I kind of agree with tiger ranks on this one. The owner of the shop has owned the business & sold cars on that plot for many years, probably long before some of you moved to Dulwich. Dulwich residents should welcome the new look Lordship Lane but also appreciate elements of the old. He is probably struggling to make ends meet & doing what he can to survive. I too was born and have lived in Dulwich all my life and don't see that it's really that big a problem?

What jobs do people in Dulwich do? Are the people in Dulwich mainly in the creative field? Does anyone ever fancy a change of career, if so what would you do, or would you be more fulfilled by doing Volunteer work abroad?...Curious

What is everyone doing this weekend? No children, friends all busy..... I'm bored with nothing to do this weekend, does anyone feel the same?

Sorry to hear of the assault Noosh82 ....it may be worth reading the following thread which sounds similiar http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,438279,438312#msg-438312

You're funny!

:) It's true Gen! I've seen it happen a few times now, once when I was carrying a plastic bag of food and I had to tie the top of the bag to stop a nail finding its way into my bag :)
