Dulwich Born And Bred

Wooooo!! My dream came true!! A sushi place in Dulwich!! Afternoon cream teas and sushi, all locally...I am as happy as a pig in poo!

If I was tortured I would confess to everything and anything just to make it stop! I guess my information would be absolutely reliable eh?

We could indeed! Naturally once we register and select a road, if we don't get enough interest we can always cancel but I am hoping we will get a huge interest! I cannot believe that we have hardly any big lunches happening near us!

It is an easy mistake to make, my friends call it Cafe Costa also, I don't think Cafe Nero is a well known name whereas Costa is hence the mistake!

There is only colwell road near me ( never heard of it!!) I am from the Dulwich Library end of Lordship Lane, I would have thought Barry Road , frien Road or Upland Road would be on there as it is nearest to me but so far, no!

There is only Cafe Nero By the roundabout, or Starbucks in Sainsbury!

Thanks, I did used to get the notififcations straight away but lately it has been coming days later, and i am still with the same server, very strange!

I have seen many people with their dogs, climb over the fence , doggy under the arm of an early morning in Dulwich park! They always find a way to get in! I wonder what the wardens say when they seem them walking their dogs in the park after they have opened up?!That is the Dulwich Library end!

I have noticed that everytime I get a private message, whereby before I would receive an email from the EDF straight away, I am not getting any emails informing me of my PMs until days later and usually I have already been on EDF and seen that I have a private message alert. Is there a reason for the delay?

I just don't want to miss out and as I am on Lordship Lane, and we cannot close it down it means I will miss out. I suggested Upland or Frien Road because they are the two roads off from Lordship Lane where I live.

Errr I live on Lordship Lane, I am guessing we cannot shut down Lordship lane for a big lunch! does that mean I can join in frien road or upland road big lunch?

I am mixed and I got a BNP leaflet..yay!

We were quite disappointed with the fair this year, we had amazing fun last year and stayed for hours but I felt this year was not as good, there were not as many good or decent stalls as last year, I couldn't believe the cafe ( BBQ) ran out of burgers within a few hours, so we had to make do with sausages when we all craved burgers. The kids were disappointed that the face painting stall was not there this year as they loved getting their faces last year. They always love the victorian fun fair though!

Got one through the post today, bit late after all the Alleyn school business. This country is so rubbish in times of crisis, I hope we don't ever encounter a real threat because we would be absolutely useless.

I have no idea, I know there is work going on outside my window but no idea what they are doing. We were hoping it would be a crossing as lots of kids cross the road there and there is no safety crossing. It looks like they are extending the pavement for the buses. We hope not because we have so many problems on that road with lack of parking and the rest!

I agree Sean, I will even take my rubbish home or use someone's else wheelie bin to throw my rubbish in if I cannot find a bin nearby. I don't understand why people think it is acceptable to litter.

Thanks for that Simon! That perked me up no end! be nice if next summer I could take my nieces and nephew for a nice little ride on the boat!

I had noticed that the signs for the boating lakes are still evident, and even on line and on the map it says Dulwich Park has a boating lake, but yet no boats!! Last time we had boats they did rope off some of the lake so not all of the wildlife would have got disturbed. I think they should bring it back, it was fun, I would have thought maybe the people who hire out the bikes would maybe do boats too, least it will boost their income in the summer and spring months! I have happy childhood memories of those little boats!

Don't worry Andy, there is another one next week at Dulwich Park!

Why don't we have boating on the lake in Dulwich park anymore? why was it stopped in the first place?

You have swine flu, because it is just like a cold according to the Alleyn school pupil!:)) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1176873/Swine-flu-Its-just-like-cold-says-girl-12-hit-public-school.html

I don't blame you being worried, I would be too, is it not possible your mother could get a second opinion? did the doctor actually visit her and examine her?

I have been told many times it does, my books says it does, my sister who is a nurse says it does, as does my midwife and doctor so I am inclined to believe them. It's supressed so your baby isn't seen as a foreign object. Babycentre.co.uk even states that: Your immune system is lowered slightly during pregnancy in order to stop your body rejecting your unborn baby. This means that you are more vulnerable to viral infections, such as coughs, colds and flu (Murray 2003:197). http://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/ref/coughsandcolds/ http://coldflu.about.com/od/faqaboutthecold/a/pregnantcolds.htm http://pregnancy.more4kids.info/64/treating-common-illnesses-during-pregnancy/ And lots and lots of information about it on the website. I have never ever heard otherwise. And I was refused antibiotics completely by the hospital and by my doctor. I cannot take Penicillins either.

It looks great Louisa!http://www.southwarkweekender.co.uk/00,news,14892,185,00.htm I cannot wait to test it out!

That is good to know, thanks for that. I had an ear infection, throat infection, flu etc when I caught flu last time and it was not nice trying to heal naturally with no treatment! That is why I am quite scared about catching anything now!
