Thanks Pebbles x

A very lovely thing happened to me today and I thought I'd share it on the forum. I was on the number 40 bus this lunchtime and suddenly realised as I got off that I'd not got my purse..it must have fallen out of my bag.

Got home and was about to start cancelling everything feeling really upset as I also had a lot of money in the purse when up popped an e-mail via linkedin from a lovely man called Matthew who had been on the same bus with his son. The boy had spotted my purse and given it to his dad who managed to track me down. An hour later I had my purse back and I was able to give a card, some money, and chocolate to Matthew's (seven year old?) son as a thank you.

I'm moving to Sheffield on Sunday after 13 great years in London. Have always enjoyed living here and today just re-confirmed how lovely people are in life!

Thanks also to the forum which has been brilliant in so many ways - from providing the comfy sofa I'm sitting on now, to facilitating the chance for me to join a great local choir amongst loads of other things. x

I have been down a couple of times and got some good bargains. My brother has sold stuff there too and did well. It's not brilliantly attended but I think there is so much potential for it to be a great local Car Boot as the field is big and well located being right by Sainsburys...I feel it needs to be better advertised and perhaps they should put up a sign on Dog Kennel Hill so people know it's happening.

We want proof that there are single men in East Dulwich! Come and join us on Sunday at the Mag at 1pm. Got a couple of nice tables booked at the back of the pub....pm and get the last two seats.. xx

Sounds like the first group had a great start to the Come Dine nights Peckhampam!

We would love one more person to join our group. Slightly revised dates...last chance to join in so if you can make these dates (some flexibility possible) get in touch now.

Saturday 16th July: Diana's night

Monday 18th July: Bea's night

Date to be confirmed: Your night! (must be before 12th Aug for awards ceremony with other group at local restaurant)

It should be a great laugh and a nice way to meet your neighbours and enjoy some good food!

Hi everyone,

We have four lovely ladies who are doing Come Dine with Me and are looking to get one more local man or woman involved in the fun.

There's been tons of interest and we have dates confirmed so if you would like to join in, grab your diary and get back to us. Essential that you can make the first two dates and the 18th July - we need a minimum of 4 people at every dinner party.

Dates are as follows:

Weds 15th June: Rosie's night

Friday 8th July: Emily's night

Saturday 16th July: Diana's night

Monday 18th July: Bea's night

Date to be confirmed: Your night.

(Choose a date before Aug 12th when we're having an 'awards night' with the other party of five at a local restaurant)

Should be a great way to show off your culinary talents, meet your neighbours and generally have a laugh!

Reply to this or pm if you are up for it.

First response back gets the space....

Hi Diana,

Sounds like you have a really organised plan in mind. Great stuff.

Unfortunately, I can't open the attachments. Could you try again in a basic word document?

Many thanks,

Emily

I have watching Come Down We Me in a whole new way since this thread started. Think it will be a real laugh!

Coming into this thread really late on(!)

Is anyone up for having a street paty on Upland Road? Even if you are not a Royalist, we have a day off so why not make the most of it.

I think the deadline for accplications to the council is tomorrow (march 17th)....

Good on you for organising this Diana, I will send you an e-mail to say that I would like to go in the mixed group.

Should be really fun. Liking the idea of putting ?15 in the pot to make a prize too.

That would be so funny! I

I love this idea!

Thanks for sharing your rainbow pics -totally beautiful yesterday!

Lovely thread. x
