Hi All Thanks for all promised donations so far. We are going to arrange a day, where you can drop all the donations off at the site or at a site for us to pick up. Will keep you all updated. We are working alongside different groups, including the hospital site managers, who need to approve everything we do. Bless them Cheers all

Thanks Sue, that would be great. If you could hold on to them for a wee while. Heather from the Vale residents association, will be housing all donations until planting begins. Thanks again :))

Hi All Just a reminder, that we will be asking donations soon. We are looking for plants suitable for planting from September. Plant spring-flowering bulbs, such as daffodils, hyacinths, and Marigolds. So ED please (im begging with cap in hand)save your unwanted September plants for the community garden. Thanks:))

Hi all Just a subtle reminder to let you lovelies know, we still need bikes for the project. We need more donations. You can download a label for your unwanted bike at http://www.eastdulwichsnub.co.uk/ Project starts officially in September, however we need bikes to get the project started, so come on East Dulwich, get out those unwanted bikes, and donate them to a good cause Thanks :)-

lol this is getting more and more confusing. I am going to give up. Next I will be trying to decipher morse codes so I can post a message. Why make life more difficult, then it already is. Thanks Straferjack for your guidance.

Hi Admin in the PM I have stated who the company are, not publicly on the forum. I have not said you tarred the company. However if you read the pm you will see what I am trying to ask. From the impression in the answers I have received re my posts and why I am having difficulties posting, it seems, and correct me If I am wrong, that certain words I post are not recognised, because they have been deemed as naughty.I am confused, that is why I have pmd you. I am cross because of the nature of my posts ie talking about community projects, cannot be projected in the posts, because of "naughty words"

Thanks Straferjack, I have sorted it, however I have written a long pm to admin, because I am not happy at all. I use the forum a lot for community projects, and the forum serves SNUB really well, however on this subject, I am rather cross.(6)

Lol staferjack funny. I think I may know whats happening, and if thats the case. I would like to see admin explain how a company who have donated their free time, energy and money to past and present community project be deemed as naughty.??? Admin could you please explain!! thank you

Hi Sue Milk thistle seeds are great, please save some for the project. Il post in due course any more updates. Thanks Sue http://www.snubdulwich.org.uk/

Hi Admin Hope you can help. I have posted an update on the Dulwich community garden thread, I listed one of the sponsors and its not letting me add the sponsor. Why is this?

Hi All Just wanted to update you on the progress of the garden project. Work will start in the next few weeks, on preparing the foundations, and designing the garden. We will also be asking for plant donations in the next few weeks. So if you are thinking of giving away any plants or seeds, flowering or herbs, please could you donate them to the garden project. Thanks The project will be managed by the Vale residents association, in collaboration with Groundwork london and Mc Govern carpentry And as always James Barber and Robin CrookshankHilton will be lending their support. As always ED watch this space Thanks SNUB Edited several times because of the increase in support for the project Ta chaps:)-D

There are buses, on the lane at the moment. I would say take normal route home, but be ready to walk if needs must. The rioters have won, we have had to close, because I am concerned about personal safety, for my colleagues and me. Products and windows can be replaced. Good luck all xx

Have a look on the forest hill forum Vixster, not sure like you im still at work, im just going by what I am being told by the delivery drivers

Vixster im on lordship lane, I would go home, we are trying to get through the deliveries, then we are going home

We are locked in our shop, 3 rioters police vans have just driven past towards forest hill. We were told by the delivery driver who was stuck in the south circular, that Forest hill has been cordoned off.

Great news xx

Lol very funny peter, you know what I mean everyone welcome including the bees, just no to the hives unfortunately Edited to add correct thread, because I was laughing. :)-D

Well done Lisa, and others. I am sure Zafi, will go to a loving home. My Shitzu Bobbi was taken a few months ago, we put up posters and called Battersea, but she was never found. Intuition tells me she is in a loving home now. Not nice losing your pet. Great we have a community of dog lovers though. x

Thank you Beekeeper, unfortunately Hospital stipulates only Physic garden, no bees allowed. And thanks to those who are volunteering. Think we have plenty, plus I have asked Groundwork London to contribute. Thanks for all the positive comments, lets send all that positive love to the garden.:)-D http://www.snubdulwich.org.uk/

Thank you Charlie, thats very sweet. Hopefully we will get full funding, it looks very optimistic. And I am putting all my positive thoughts and energy out there, for the great and the good of the garden.:)-D

Hi all Hope you are all well, wanted to keep you posted on EDSNUB's new project, a community garden at Dulwich Hospital. The project will hopefully start in September, subject to funding and will be run by the Vale residents Association in collaboration with EDSNUB. The new community garden will be at Dulwich hospital, just in front by the main entrance behind the hoarding. (hopefully the hoarding will be removed with the help of our lovely local councillors) The theme of the garden with be physic, using herbs and flowers to assault the senses, whilst sitting in a sea of colour and serenity. Watch this space for updates Thanks http://www.snubdulwich.org.uk/ Edited to add new website

Hi all although I have already started a thread on Cycling instructor courses this summer, thought I would add to this thread as well re cycling instructor and booking 4 free lessons with http://www.cyclinginstructor.com/ Go on get on your bikes literally >:D<

Thanks Sue, I am toying with the idea of planting flowers around the tree by me on the lane, instead of seeing the tree decorated by various tins and glasses from the pubs.

Hi all Further update, due to the temporary closure,of East Dulwich police station, you can drop off all donated bikes to BC Bikes on the East Dulwich Rd. Thanks again

I love the whole idea of Guerilla gardening. Love to see more of it on the lane, especially where the trees are planted. Instead of looking at a pile of dirt, would be nice to see flowers and plants encasing the trees.
