  1. Kicked out of the old EDT to make way for a pizza place, after almost singlehandedly putting East Dulwich on the map with years of brilliantly curated comedy, new play readings and impro, champions of comedy Ron and Emma bought The Hob in Forest Hill to give their comedy club a permanent home. Alas, this is the last weekend! http://www.beyondthejoke.co.uk/content/1702/news-legendary-south-london-comedy-club-closes very very sad.
  2. I have realized because the bike is called a bump and the forum won't let you use that word!!
  3. I have been trying to put a for sale re our bmx bike under for sale section, it refuses to move from view to post or from edit to post. thanks
  4. return to postman, he will sort it out.
  5. Sydenham/Dulwich woods if you enter the Scouts Camping field / golf club car park end.
  6. agree it's wonderful, love the wildlife garden and looking forward to seeing whatever the new bit is going to be where the depot once was.
  7. Perhaps East Dulwich's own Bug Man can help ?
  8. Strange Yellow Liquid Smoking Pregnant Woman Stolen Daffodils
  9. hi Alice, Steve has just replaced some of our windows and refurbished others. I think rattlers can probably be saved but we had rattlers and rotters in the front bays. We could have had them refurbished but it would have only extended them till they needed replacement in the very near future. Our living room was extremely draughty. Because they were so far gone, it was only a bit more expensive to have them remade rather than repaired. We kept the frames and sills as they were ok and Steve's team of two extremely hard working blokes stripped and repainted these. New sashes- exact copies of the originals- in front bay and two non-bay in upstairs front bedroom. Our back bedroom had a rattler with a lot of draught, and this was taken out, stripped, and whatever else was needed to make it fit properly. They finished work today, ten days after starting- which was four days shorter than estimate.
  10. Steve has just finished replacing and refurbishing our Victorian sash windows, bays at the front and the two in the front bedroom. The originals were pretty far gone, you could put your finger through them in parts and it was more economical and efficient in the long term to make new ones than to repair and renovate. Steve and his team made perfect copies that fit beautifully in the original frames- (which they stripped and repainted). They also refurbished and rehung our existing sash in the back bedroom that has always been incredibly draughty. They were clean, quiet, worked extremely hard for a full day, tidied up after themselves and finished the job today, three days before predicted. I am already enjoying the sensation of watching the telly without sitting in a wind tunnel. Great work!
  11. I too saw These Trees are Made of Blood last week, the opening night. The preview was almost unbearably long at just under three hours as the cabaret bit went on almost to the interval- the first half spilling over to an hour and a half.. I am sure they have made some cuts since then! Once the story got going - it was brilliant! I've thought about it quite a lot since seeing it.
  12. veggie samosas from the shop that used to be Andreas opposite what used to be the East Dulwich deli! I love Quorn Nutburgers but haven't seen hem around for a while.
  13. You were all complaining at 8.22am! I was on One Tree Hill and we definitely got a dusk-light experience climaxing at 9.30 and then it began to lighten again. It was very cold, the birds shut up, the dog lay down, the apocalyptical cult like chanting began, my phone went flat (ok I hadn't charge it for a few days)... oh I see...the edf clocks gone bonkers. That's the eclipse for you.
  14. I've just been to a preview screening of next Monday's telly documentary on British spy George Blake. Really good. I think the streets of East Dulwich appeared at some point. Did I dream it or was there a EDF mention of him recently as hiding out in East Dulwich?
  15. Yes it had a temporary home in camberwell, on the way to the oval. What a shame the EDT kicked them out in the first place to make way for a pizza thing that then never took off.
  16. The tapas place is brilliant, same side of the cut as old VIc, but a bit expensive.
  17. Somewhere here the truth became hostage to beauracratic ill advised pc fuelled decisions, the kind lampooned by private eyes right - on police station column.
  18. I think the only people keeping this a secret has been the C of E church hierarchy. everyone else has been in the dark for months- until today.
  19. All the classes are free with jags membership.
  20. I made it to the memorial. It was rammed. It was a lovely service.
  21. From about 1998. I am sure this info will be available at the memorial. Get there early, it will be Very busy.
  22. There is a memorial service for his life on Sunday 25th January at the church at 6pm.
  23. the small gallery and picture framers on East Dulwich grove, near Balfes Bikes has some really interesting local work for sale.
  24. Merry Christmas from Peckham Borders.xxx
  25. backstrokers crash into other swimmers in crowded lanes. I hate it! but as a slow swimmer I also hate being in the slow lane and and torpedoed by people who should be in the fast lane but think its too busy. Worstest of all evil doers are those who do not respect the clockwise law and go up and down, getting in the way, usually doing the backstroke! and this is in JAGS.
