Can anyone recommend a builder to open up a back addition with a box steel frame and put in sliding doors?

Totally agree. Totally agree

I went to the meeting at Christ Church on Monday 17 July for the so called 'consultation' about the introduction of a CPZ area for Dulwich Hill. It was a complete whitewash because the Council has already decided to introduce it. Most people in the meeting were totally opposed to the idea. It is yet another attack on people in a cost of living crisis. It is another way for the Council to raise money. We need to organise our opposition across the borough. Where is the mandate for this decision? I thought the Council/politicians are voted in to work on our behalf, not just impose their will. How will those on a state pension be able to afford the £240 pa to park their car? The Councillor who led the meeting made a gob stopping comment when he said that Dulwich Hill residents were not exactly poor, a sweeping comment if ever there was one. We need a borough wide campaign otherwise they will pick us off ward by ward. Is there a cross borough petition to oppose these CPZ's? We need one urgently.

I am looking for someone who can repair my electric oven apart from the spin doctor. Anyone have a recommendation?

Anyone wanting to fit blinds to their house wont go wrong with Bespoke Finishing Touches based in Charlton Village. Their address is 26 The Village SE7 8UD. Tel 0208 319 2222. Not only do they have a wide choice of different blinds, they are excellent fitters as well. Ask for Tony to do the fitting. If you need the blinds fixed in anyway after they have been fitted then they come out straight away. Highly recommended, I have used them many times.

Yes I can recommend Progas, installed new boiler and some new radiators recently, did a really good job, know what they are doing, very reliable.

Very pleased with top signal service, came out very quickly to a block of flats and fixed the communal dish. Very polite and helpful. Highly recommended.

Can anyone recommend someone who does fascia and soffit work? Need to replace mine as wood is rotting and I want to use UPVC replacement.

Paul is a really good florist at the top of Lordship Lane near to the old Grove Tarvern, now derelict. Does click and collect. Good prices. 0208 693 3332

Noticed that the assistants in William Rose are now all wearing masks, must be because of the Covid outbreak they had. They only now allow 2 customers into the shop, but that is still a tight squeeze. The butchers in Duwlich village only allow 1 customer at a time. A few people still not wearing masks going into William Rose.

I see William Rose is shut until Tuesday 22 December 'due to staff shortages' I wonder if this is due to Covid. I am not happy that they allow 3 people into the shop at a time in such a small squeezed space. Also I rarely see the shop assistants themselves wearing masks. I thought all shop assistants now had to wear masks?

Does anyone know how I get a new brown bin as mine is broken. Thanks.

I have used Hamish in the past but he is very difficult to get hold of. Just recently I have been using Tim Doidge at Sakura Tree Services, really good and very reasonable, in fact cheaper than Hamish! His number is 07958 553219. Also [email protected]

I have used the spin doctor three times and I would thoroughly recommend him.

I would completely agree with the post by tomdhu on this.
