Ideas for week night activities for 14 year old boys
mima08 replied to gingellico's topic in The Family Room Discussion
There's a great badminton club at the Harris girls academy. It runs Friday from 5.30 to 6.45. for more experienced players, they have sessions on Wednesday and Friday, too but that's subject to skill levels -
It was open yesterday evening (Saturday) and fairly busy, too.

I would also not recommend Polish -had a bad experience with a piercing - poor position, wrong size stud and zero instructions for aftercare. After on the staff attitude, getting looked up and down. After the piercing healed, I went to Superdrug,they were brilliant.

That seems to be the section where the islands are in the road? If so, we cycle along this road during hockey season on a Sunday morning. In my two years of taking my tween kid, he's been knocked slightly on his bike 3x by drivers too impatient as he's going up the little hill, I've been sworn at and having cars reving behind me as we're going past the bit with the islands (there's not enough space for a car to safely overtake). And that's just on a Sunday morning...I know such infrequent use doesn't necessarily justify the expenditure but it would make me feel safer.

There are a few hire places (budget, Europcar) off the old Kent road, We've picked up from there before. But our fav (when available) is Hiya Car - it's like Airbnb but for cars...

New Shops in East Dulwich and Nearby - 2025 Edition
mima08 replied to Joe's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Not strictly a new place but new to me: stumbled across a fabulous cocktail bar at 210 Rye Lane - we loved the gorgeous, eclectic interior, they make any cocktail you can imagine and will be doing small plates. Think it's called XOTO? opposite the Tesco express at that end of Rye Lane. -

I've used Carlton Jefferson before and will go back. VERY old school (aka non fancy premises etc) but very knowledgeable with over 30years experience. Prices a lot cheaper that Dulwich podiatric who told me nothing could be done for my condition (Mr Jefferson sorted it quickly) https://maps.app.goo.gl/ksmBPz1XphqPCgSv9

Cutting down of the Cherry Tree Peckham Rye Park
mima08 replied to Hen123's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Good to know that there was a notice -it was not there today at 12.30 ish. Not sure why someone would want to remove it? As for the expert assessment, I am just highlighting that it seems to have been misdiagnosed back in 2013 and it could simply be an error based on that diagnosis. -
Cutting down of the Cherry Tree Peckham Rye Park

So the contractors have cut some branches off already (see pics) and there is no notice on the tree or area. Someone up thread mentioned the contractors said they would put one up. I am no expert but noticed that the tree seems to be covered in new buds - not really a sign of a tree with deceased roots? I picked up a twig from the ground and saw the buds are green inside as is underneath the twig bark - more likely to be signs of live? Again, I'm no expert but some of the comments above indicate this has been a longstanding wrong diagnosis? -
