Daniel - Dulwich Handy - would be my recommendation. He did a job for me today moving a load of difficult and awkward loads around the house and worked hard, quickly and was very friendly and professional throughout And

We need some help moving some boxes and items down from the loft and up from the cellar. Nothing stupidly heavily but my husband has recently had a back op so is unable to do it and it's a bit beyond my strength. Ideally we'd like someone to come next Saturday 15th for three hours. Please PM me if interested and let me know your rate. Thanks.

Has anyone had a good experience with a mortgage advisor? I'm looking for recommendations. Thanks.

Thanks Sue. I?ll ask!

Hello I am looking for someone to embroider some letters on some fabric for me, either by hand or machine. Does anyone know anyone locally who can offer this service? Thanks in advance.

Greg did a great job on our dividing doors - prompt, polite and professional. Would definitely recommend.

Another recommendation for Bradley. I called this morning and he's just left and our carpets look great. Thanks v much.

Hello I am looking for someone who can do a deep clean of our hallway and living room wooden floors. They are stripped floorboards which have been varnished, but the hallway in particular needs a scrub. Any recommendations gratefully received. Thanks.

We've just had our hallway and ceilings painted by Terry and were once again impressed with his work. We got a few quotes and his was the best by far and the work has been finished to a good standard. He started the work almost immediately too. We've used him previously to paint the front of the house and were happy with that too. Would recommend him highly. His number is 07958 707115.

Would love to find out more! See you later.

Unfortunately Tierra Verde no longer serves coffee... But, I've booked us an area in Toasted instead. See you there at 11 or in the EDT at 6.30pm!

Perfect, see you then!

Any more updates on this? Would be interested to speak to the landlords of any of these properties with regard to a short term pop-up lease...

Perfect - look forward to meeting you on 27th! Jane

Great! There should be a few of us so look forward to meeting you then.

Calling all freelance writers, designers, photographers, illustrators, PR, marketeers . . . I am a book editor and publishing consultant, working from home in East Dulwich and I am interested in meeting any locals who, like me, enjoy being their own boss but miss the buzz and community of belonging to an organisation. Perhaps you miss the stimulus of working alongside others with the opportunity for collaboration and those all-important chance encounters? If you think you?d benefit from: a stronger division between work and home life a dedicated workspace outside of your own home, but in your local area being part of a useful, informal creative community IT support on the spot access to a meeting room space good coffee . . . ! . . . . then I?d love to talk to you about how we might build an informal community in East Dulwich. For example, what would you look for in a shared workspace? What are your professional frustrations and opportunities? To talk about how we might make our working lives more productive, creative and enjoyable, please come and join me either for a coffee at 11am in Tierra Verde or a drink in the East Dulwich Tavern at 6.30pm on Tuesday 27th January. RSVPs appreciated. And feel free to drop me a line with any questions. I look forward to seeing you!

Just wanted to recommend Terry who has painted the exterior of our house. He has done a brilliant job, was reasonably priced and has helped out and given me advice on lots of unrelated niggling DIY issues! I work from home and he's a pleasure to have around the place too. Contact him on [email protected] or 07958707115

Just a quick shout out for Andy the plumber, who came out to look at our boiler yesterday. He was extremely helpful, friendly and good value too. Highly recommended. His number is 07983 688451.

Hi Jules I am looking for something similar and was wondering whether you found anywhere? I'd be happy to share a space and make a contribution if that is of interest? I only need room for a ford transit. Thanks Jane 07916 140291

Hello Would anyone recommend a physio in the area? Ideally someone who has experience with patients who have had operations on their lower back. Thanks v much!

Hello We have a rat/s behind our kitchen cabinets and have had the same issue a couple of times before so rather than simply putting rat poison down we really want to address the cause of the problem. A private pest control agency has laid bait and is suggesting they do a CCTV survey of the drains as a broken drain is the most likely route into the house. We are now trying to locate our manhole cover and have been going round in circles with Thames Water and the council who don't seem to have a map of the area. Has anyone managed to get hold of a drain map from the council before? Secondly, has anyone ever had this CCTV service? Is it going to help or just be a massive waste of money? I'm getting a bit desperate as I have a young child and keep reading about all the diseases the rats carry. Thanks v much for any advice. Jane

Hello I suspect we have rats underneath our floorboards. I have had Rentokil out in the past and have found them to be pretty useless (just laying poison rather than investigating where the rats might be coming in from). Has anyone had any success with another company? Any recommendations gratefully received. Jane

Hello We have a concrete garden path (about 40cm wide and 4 metres long) and we would like to hire someone to dig it up and dispose of the rubble. Can anyone recommend a labourer? Thanks!

If anyone is looking for a secure place to lock up their bike in East Dulwich, please get in touch. I might have the solution! Thanks Jane
