"All those who moan about "i want this, i want that" on the lane, acting like a spoilt brat who's allowance has been cut from 5k a month to only 2k ;)" Your post just made my day.

Loads of pubs now go for the wooden floors and few soft furnishings look so music, clanking cutlery, crying children (and adults!) can seem much louder than before. Apart from a couple of chesterfield sofas in The Cherry Tree masking the sound, I find that to be the loudest pub around. The Bishop comes at a close second, but I like the noisy atmosphere in both those pubs. Nothing worse than drinking in a morgue. But totally appreciate the OP's comments.

On the SE4 Facebook forum, a similar story happened last night just up the road in Brockley. A Chinese delivery guy had his bike stolen when he was doing a delivery. It was also 3 lads who done it. Coincidence?

Sandi Toksvig also frequents the Brockley Jack in Brockley. Ok, it's not East Dulwich, but only a mile away as the crow flies. I was starstruck...

Sandi Toksvig was also in the Brockley Jack pub last week. She didn't smile at me though...

I used to always use East Dulwich station but the trains were getting so packed going in to London Bridge that my stress levels were going through the roof. I now walk up to Peckham Rye and go to work via Victoria instead of London Bridge. It's not perfect, and rarely do I get a seat, but at least I'm not in a sardine can.

Thanks for your advice folks. Our neighbours and us are both end of terraces and there is a gap of about 3 ft between our properties. None of their scaffolding touches ours, but our phone line crosses over their roof and that's where the problem has arisen. BT rang my mobile this morning, and God love them, they are going to send a 'cherry lift' so hopefully they can make the necessary repairs. If not....cant' imagine a Christmas without wifi...especially as the lil one is getting his first iPad.

Dear all, Can anyone help me with some advice? I've trawled through the net but struggling to find the correct information. Like many streets in our neighbourhood, there is lots of attic conversions, roof fixing and general building work going on on our road. The problem I have is that next door is having a roof conversion and it 'appears' that their scaffolding has slit our BT cable in two rendering us having no phone line and *scream* broadband. Their builders deny it was them even though BT say that it was them as their scaffolding is inches away from our sorry telephone line which is now hanging in two. It does appear a huge coincidence that the telephone line would just snap right in the middle of their scaffolding.... Anyway, I don't really care how it happened. I just want it fixed so I can get back to 'Orange is the new black' etc on Netflix. BT will only fix it when their scaffolding comes down. However next door says that their scaffolding is going to be up for at least the next three months. Does any lovely person have any advice? Cheers all

Cheers!

A little bit off topic (OK a lot), but I remember one Sunday afternoon during Wimbledon fortnight, we were sitting having a pint outside the Bishop. And a car slowed down in front of us. And in the back of the car was....."drum roll"....Maria Sharapova!

This question got me thinking a bit. Why is called the P13? I assume there is a bus 13 somewhere, but what does the P stand for? Peckham?

I'll bet you a jug of tap water from the Victoria Inn and a portion of halloumi sticks that it might go longer...

Why do people do such a thing? So infuriating.

A friend of mine had their card cloned about a year ago and 3 x ?300 was taking out on three consecutive days. They also suspected that it was that same cashpoint at Tesco Express on the East Dulwich Road. To be honest thought hat282, only your bank will be able to tell you where it happened for sure. If it helps, my card was cloned about 5 years and ?1400 on my credit card went to a ' bts trading company, Lagos, Nigeria'!Don't worry though, although it's a pain in the butt, you should be fully reimbursed in about ten days time. Hope that helps.

Cheers Maxxi! I'll sleep well in bed tonight knowing that you and your bro took care of Foxy. Not sure about the green jumpsuit though.....
