Thanks all! KateS - boulangerie Jade is a nice cafe, but they don't do fresh cream cakes. Their eclairs are filled with patisserie cream (a kind of custard), not fresh cream. Azalea- thanks and I've been to Bunhead Bakery (a Palestinian bakery) in Herne Hill a few times. There's a nice chocolate bun they do, which is amazing when then sauce is warmed up. But I haven't seen any fresh cream things there, only white icing. Maybe it's only on a certain day. And the last time I checked, Ayres bakers in Nunhead don't do fresh cream things. These are the kind of fresh baked goods I'm thinking of....

So far, I haven't come across a bakery in East Dulwich or the surrounding areas which sells baked goods with fresh cream, other than Greggs on Peckham Rye. I'm thinking of things like chocolate eclairs and cream buns. I passed by the bakery in West Dulwich the other day - it looked traditional so I hoped they might sell some, but sadly when I asked they said they don't sell things with fresh cream. Same for the bakery in Nunhead (I heard they used to, years ago). Does anyone know of any bakeries near here (or further afield) which do sell these? I should say that the M&S chocolate eclairs (the standard ones) are very good and they use proper fresh whipped cream, so I am thankful for that!

It would be interesting to know who the landlord is, how much the rent was increased by, and the reasons for the rise.

Brockwell Lido - in a miserable state

Have seen this on the BBC - BBC News - Brockwell Lido is shabby and neglected, say users https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz604y93y2xo -
These guys have done a great job for us today - they have cut back and controlled some wild and unruly plants and have sorted out our roses. I would highly recommend them.

i tried to take an alternative route in an Uber to get to Denmark Hill - to avoid goose green - but then got stuck in these instead! Have these appeared recently?

Hello, We live in East Dulwich and would like someone to cut back some unruly bushes in our back garden. Some leaves are high up so a ladder would be needed. Thanks!

We live on Whateley Road, and the back gardens of Silvester Road back onto us. In one of the gardens near ours, on the Silvester Road side, there's someone who frequently plays loud music during the day. This happens in the summer (it happened a lot last summer too). It is often on weekdays. I realise that on a terraced block you are of course going to hear your neighbours going about life and being outside. But this is so loud, and I doubt everyone on the block wants to hear their music....! I'm working from home today and I have the window shut to try to reduce the noise, which isn't ideal in this weather! I will try to locate the house and ask them to turn it down (though I imagine other neighbours have tried to do the same). Just wondered if anyone else has come across this issue or similar issues, and how you've dealt with it. Thanks!

Sorry to miss this - I wanted to come but couldn't make it this time!

I just called Dulwich Leisure Centre to ask if they know when the pool will reopen. They just said they don't know. They weren't able to give any rough timescale. Think it's been quite a while now?

Good places to eat near Rye Lane?

I see the Janda Diner Times review made it into last week's Week magazine - see photo. Useful to see the summary of the review. -
Brockwell Lido - in a miserable state

I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy. I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
