It is difficult to understand why someone would leave a load of mouldy bread by the lake in Peckham rye park. The birds won?t touch it and it only serves to endanger the wellbeing of unfortunate dogs who cannot resist their scavenging tendencies. My dog is one such and required an expensive purge at the vets in order secure his safety from mycotoxic poisoning. Very annoying.

?Lady driver? spotted by ?the trolley man?......... let?s hope that the cctv ?they? are gender neutral.

What a treat to find on a morning EDF browse! Hiroshima and her ginkgoes deserve to be celebrated. Thank you for the article Sue x

Fortunately it seems to be emulsion so a hose and brush seemed to help.

Bravo to whoever managed to drip and spill brilliant white paint all down crawthew grove and up Crystal Palace road this morning. What a mess.

No. I don?t open the door to anyone who doesn?t have believable ID. His mate hanging back at the gate and the ridiculous blag about traffic control was what unnerved me.

One heavily built thick grey haired man in dark glasses at my door, white and in his fifties, just now saying he was from traffic control at the council. Asked to see his card and he said it was in his car so I told him to go and get it. He and his wiry mate who hung back at the gate left and have not returned. Unsettling. Crystal Palace Road.

Yep! They were pounding the park this Saturday x

Maybe it?s just my eye, rahrahrah, but it seems as though gravity has tugged them a few millimetres lower since they arrived!

This morning I had a pang of sad remembrance of the beautiful sculpture that was stolen from the park. Do you think that one day a piece of public sculpture of equal standing will arrive for us to enjoy? I watch the steady collapse of the two spirals of piping that were placed at the top of the park as a replacement and have to note that they are not doing it for me. A competition maybe?

Oh my,Inside 72 was the best! Xx

The actress I think. Down the steep staircase.

Thanks for the information. I went and asked how long the outage would be and was told about and hour xx

No water at 15.45 today...... anyone else?

How ghastly. I hope you get over it quickly and, as WH Auden said,? wear your tribulation like a rose? xxx

Wonderful music and lovely atmosphere. An East Dulwich classic xx

The rye was like the beach scene from jaws today! Packed and heedless.

I did say and the trainer said he could not be bothered to listen to me. Have a look at the Southwark link above and the requirements are very clear. Also, who said anything about? demanding?anything? And why are you assuming I am unfriendly?

Thank you for that link! I might ask to see if the trainer is registered next time.

i understand that the gyms are closed again and I take pleasure at the ingenious straps and pulleys attached to trees to help people train outdoors. However, this morning one trainer had set a bench press on the narrow path between the fields and was encouraging his client to complete sets of free weights requiring other park users to accommodate the obstruction. No room left for a wheelchair or mobility scooter to pass. What are the park regulations on personal trainers rights to use the rye? It was a shame to see a lack of common sense and consideration for others so blatantly in operation.

Any recommendations for a piano tuner in east dulwich?

Sorry to see that the dog water trough outside the loos in Peckham rye park has now been removed. The water was turned off during the lockdown but now the loos are reopened it would have been nice and useful to have this facility restored. Any explanation for this situation? Any plans to offer a watering station for the dogs in the hot weather?

really appreciate these! Beautiful. I would like the grownups to dig deep and join in too! Stay safe xx

Reading through this and overjoyed at thought of pre pay oyster coming into operation at ED station this september...... morning of the third has arrived.... are my hopes to be dashed??
