Dulwich Born And Bred

It gets left outside if you are not around, try capricorn organic, that is who i am using at the moment, she delivers on Tuesday in the evenings.

The vegs and fruits are from farmers in THIS country, seasonal vegs and fruits only, you get all the details of the farm, what they use and so on, you can even visit the farm. You can order some fruits such as bananas but they make sure it is fairtrade bananas. Ditto on the meats and also the fish, i dont go for the farmed stuff!

We buy our fruits and vegs from the local farms, I am with capricorn organics, and my boss is with Riverford ( Riverford actually deliver your products via a bike to cut their carbon footprint) we buy our meats from the William Rose, and everything else such as pasta, rice, and cleaning products we order online from tescos, ideally we would prefer not to, because ALL big supermarkets, including waitrose are a rip off, waitrose/Ocado still do not have all organic food and their labels still have lots of crap in their food, so still made in a factory! But anything fair trade is always good (but again, via a supermarket they probably still get a cut of the profits!) if I could afford it I would probably buy things like pasta, rices and such in local delis. It is all the pre packed foods, the fruits, vegs and cheap meats and junks that are the biggest problems hence we only buy organic locally.

So the guy is meant to be running and acting nervous, and the good man shot him? if he was a sucide bomber dont you think the nervous act and the running away would have made him blow himself and everyone up? Ohhh I am so allergic to Bullshi#t!

I always look nervous when I go on the tubes, hate public transport! I better not go out when there is a high public alert. They should do their investigations properly, they are trained to know their job, but the whole operation was a shambles, he was completely the wrong man, I mean he looked nothing like the guy in the photo they were supposed to be watching, and these people are PROFESSIONALS???? our security depends on people like them!!

I dont know why you dont just ask for home delivery with William Rose...we do! No queuing!! I find people in Dulwich generally all polite, not had a problem with anyone so far, as for THAT chemist, well they have known my family and I for years so we get on with them but they do have a HUGE turnover of staff and I have walked in and seen customers shouting at them and walking out in a huff, but I only ever catch the end bits so I never know what provokes it!

Pay my debts, buy my family a house, I would not donate money to charity because I like to see where my money has gone, I would actually go over to whatever country and get involved so I can see the difference my money has made and I personally would live abroad, I am not buying a house in London thank you, I can get more for my money abroad!

At the end of the day, the police could have stopped him in Brixton/Vauxhall or wherever he was, because they watched him from there and followed him all the way to the tube station and THEN shot him which is more of a danger with the public! 6/7 times? point blank? and all those errors they made? with the investigation and so on? Talk about trigger happy!

I agree, I found it a bit too much but that is the Yanks for you!

They were all having a duvet day.

I hope you had a wonderful day and may you have many many years of wedded bliss!! Heidi xx

There is Dulwich Art Gallery, Horniman Museum, Bel Air or is it beau something House? but I think they are all expensive. There is the cricket club in Dulwich also. Congrats on your impending wedding!! xx

I hate the C word, I think people who use it make themselves look pretty much stupid, it is just a nasty word. I love to say Bloody hell, twat or prat. The F word doesnt have any impact with me as so many people use it!

Well I do not remember being born in Dulwich hospital but i remember going to see my baby sister 21 years ago in Dulwich Hospital! and I am only 29! I am going to miss that place:(

Ahh I was wondering what all that commotion was!! heard lots and lots of police cars! But I thought with it being rugby final it might be some people drinking and getting lairy too early! Costcutters is my local and they are pretty nice in costcutters so I cannot imagine why anyone would want to attack them!

I think it is absolutely appalling that these girls and other people who mug people think they have the right to take other peoples properties. It really makes my blood boil, we all have to work and save to get nice things, no one has the right to take someone elses property and threaten them with violence or intimdation. Gosh, they need a click around the ears! I wonder if their parents know that they have produced kids who are roaming the streets causing fear!

I just think in general with the Brits, kids are always seen and not heard, and also because now people are working harder, longer , they are quite stressed and just want to escape, and to go to places where kids are running amok, it enough to cause kiddy rage....ohhh, I have made up a new rage....well we have car rage and plane rage and the rest!:)) I am not bothered personally as I am a nanny, an auntie, and love kids but I can also understand why some people would just want to get away from it all. It is different abroad but it has always been like that abroad, they are very family oriented, whereas londoners are not so much these days.

I know a place! go to the kebab and wine and ask to go through the secret door...(wink wink) no kids there at all!

I remember when I went to Turkey when I was a wee little girl, more wee then now! and I was sure ALL the Turkish men were gay because they all kissed each other! It was only when I was in London and made Turkish friends that I realised it was normal, every Hakan, Tarkan and Erkan kissing you is normal. That and wearing horrible nasty slippers when you go in their houses.

Ahh Jah Lush, People are always convince that one cannot possibly be happy without kids, marriage and the rest, You know like when obese people say their weight does not bother them and they are all happy and jolly and people mutter " it is a front, I tell you, she cannot be happy with her weight,she wants to be thin really" well they think the same if one is older, single, etc, they say " it is a front, how can they be happy alone, old , without anything but themselves??" Even my mother said to me the other day " You are only half living if you do not have children and a partner, it is a different and special kind of love" geez thanks Mum!(tu)

Child dislikers...boooo hiissssss!>:D< I am joking, there is a place for everyone! I find getting drunk is quite an effective of way of helping to ignore the children in pubs.

I think they should teach it in schools, so the next generation are not as confused as this generation.:)) It is just difficult because now we have a mixture of different cultures, there is the different ways they do things, like the kissing on cheeks, and handshakes. I remember when we used to be able to go in people's houses with shoes on, so matching your socks didn't matter, now I find we go to people's houses ( like my Turkish friends) and they demand you take your shoes off at the door, not good if it is wash day eh?
