Hubby got fed up getting messages telling him that he had failed to attend - on checking it was a mistake as he had not booked in for a session anyway. With all the tech problems he cancelled his membership. Even though he has to pay more per swim, he goes to Forest Hill Pool where he can book in person at the time most convenient for him.

I do not know of any Pet Plan that covers the above. Ours covers illness/surgery/death and loss. Try ringing PDSA for advice or Cat Protection.

Have used this company for years in connection with our community centre and residents' association. Efficient and reasonable price. They also did the invitation cards for our silver wedding party.

I go to Adam's Hair in Dartmouth Road Forest Hill (opposite swimming pool), Had lowlights cut and blow dry for £75 a couple of weeks ago. Last time I had this done was £65,

Just had Niko around to fix some leaky taps. As always very reasonable re costs. Came around initially to check the problem and came back a couple of hours later with required replacements parts. All fixed in less than an hour. Prefers to be paid via cash.

Many state schools combine their 6th Forms and call them 'colleges' .My girls went to a 6th Form Consortium which was also called a college by some people. My grandson (now 20) went to a college at 16 in Bromley - was free tuition until he was 18 and after that his Mum had to pay.

Try Turners in Barry Road.

Is the 6th Form in a private or independent school? State 6th Forms will remain free.

Years ago the park keepers used to ring a bell to give notice of closing - they were the only people who could drive around the perimeter of the park. Park used to close 'at dusk' no idea now of time - check notice boards by gates.

My youngest was bullied at Sydenham (which i was not aware of until her form teacher rang me). Daughter decided to confront the bullies, and reported them to both form teacher and head of year. With the support of the school, she informed the bully's parents what she had endured and was not bullied again. This was many years ago and daughter is now a 38 year old teacher of pupils from 14 onwards. She looks out for signs of bullying and is ready to step in when necessary.

Many small businesses take cash only i.e some local cafes/shops/hairdressers in both ED and Forest Hill. As well as my card - always try to have around £10/£20 cash on me. Daughter in Sussex is trying to teach her 8 and 10 year old value of money and budgeting, finds it hard to demonstrate with hard cash as so few shops take cash where she lives. Ended up in getting those debt cards for children.

Private schools tend to break up end of June or first week of July

We went digital with our landline last autumn as heard that this was inevitable by 2025. Government/telecoms have now pushed this back to 2028. For the 3rd time in as many months. we cannot make or receive calls. Internet is working. Have tried ringing from mobile to number( 0800 800151} no answer. Family and friends worried that they cannot get hold of us. Hubby has tried on his mobile but no joy. Anyone else have this problem?. Would like to go back to the analogue system which was at least reliable but imagine that this is not possible.

Have received both Lib Dem and Green leaflets (Dulwich Hill ward). Both Labour and Conservatives have lots of money from donors funding their campaigns the other 2 parties have limited resources . Many years ago when Lib Dems were just Liberals - their election campaigns were funded primarily from income derived from jumble sales. I helped out at many of these events which took place at Emmanuel Church Hall (now Christ Church) and Dulwich Baths, They were the original recycling and anti landfill party.

We have been at the Gardens for years and although sometimes had to wait a couple of weeks for a routine appointment, other times I have been called in to meet nurse/pharmacist/GP within a couple of days. Recently I was unwell and hubby called 111 who then spoke to our GP, who called me back within an hour and organised an ambulance, Very impressed. Ended up in Kings for 2 weeks being operated on.

i can never seem to see the prices of their goods , although admit the display is always good.

Hubby went to TJC on Friday 28th and was told he could not have a routine test

Bromley Court Hotel is offering cream teas at a much cheaper price I am told.

Peckham Flowers. I have sent you an email (PM) with ASB officer's email details.

Meet with your local SNT team at Christ Church Barry Road. Hear about issues affecting local residents and businesses'. Share your concerns re crime in the area, Hear about issues affecting local residents and businesses'. Share your concerns re crime in the area,

Report it to your local Safer Neighbourhood Police. If you come under Dulwich Hill, there is a meeting at Christ Church Barry Road on Weds 12th June at 6 pm and members of the Police team will be there, Last time we had 3 officers,

Southwark has an Anti Social Behaviour Officer who will take up issues re any Southwark tenant. The fact you spoke about a resident services officer indicates that Southwark has an interest. I have sat on committees with police and ASB officer have worked together to try and solve issues with neighbours. I will look at my records to see if I can find the name of the officer - it was a woman.

Our neighbour had a loft conversion and we signed a party wall agreement - there was no encroachment on our property at all. His property is leasehold with Southwark being the freeholder, also the ground floor flat is a Southwark tenancy and they were notified. I would definitely get building regs involved.

Try the East Dulwich Community Centre in Darrell Road, You cab find them on line.
