I've had both bad food and bad service at The Green in the past, and wouldn't go there again. It doesn't have a good atmosphere, either. The worst (and last) time was one Christmas Day. My family decided it would be a good idea to go there for lunch. VERY bad idea, the food was appalling (AND expensive). I also once had to wait over an hour for food at Le Chardon, but that was a long time ago .....

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX If Macey's is the chemist in North Cross Road, I was also told this on Saturday morning - not only that Maceys dispenses methadone but that it is a needle exchange. I strongly object to the way this issue was being presented by these people at the stall trying to get people to sign their petition. (it was the first I had heard of it). Amongst other things I was told that if the new needle exchange was opened, needles would be strewn all around (eh? I walk down North Cross Road every day, and I haven't seen any near Macey's!! Or anywhere else in the area for that matter) and that this wasn't nimbyism BUT the objections were because it would be "right next to a nursery school and community centre." What do they think is going to happen, bad bad druggies attack the dear little kiddies? Talk about stereotyping drug users. I had the petition shoved at me with what would have been no opportunity to consider the arguments for and against, and if it is true that people were just walking past, then good for them - I didn't sign it. Forgive me if this post is just repeating what others have said - I don't have time to read ten pages of the thread, just wanted to state my viewpoint, because I was still fuming on Saturday when I got on the bus !!

Surely street trees are chosen which have roots which do not affect houses. If there is subsidence, removing trees can often in fact make it worse.

Don't know about the best, but I had an absolutely rubbish Sunday roast at the EDT (stone cold and crap service) - but by far the worst I've EVER had, in fact possibly the worst MEAL I've ever had in my life, was at that pub in Dulwich Village - The Greyhound ??

A three bed terrace in Ulverscroft Road was recently sold for ?475k the day it went on the market .....

Somebody has also been removing trees in Ulverscroft Road over the last few years .... WHY ?!
