Lived on St Francis Road since 2006. Chance of phone muggings, but my view is that could happen anywhere.

Have been popping in for a lunch every few weeks since it opened, going again this week just gone. Really like the place, decent food at a good price. Service is really quick which is perfect for a lunch if you are working during the day.

Anyone got any experience of Sarah Mierau from the Hearing Care Partnership, looks like she operates out of R.Woodfall opticians. Alternatively any recommendations of any private audiologists based in South East London or near London Bridge?

Thoroughly recommend Vanessa and her sister?s masks from SE22Breathe https://instagram.com/se22breathe?igshid=1xnrufxl22euz She delivers locally, very reasonably priced. Friendly and responsive, you can drop an email or an instagram message to place the order, and payment can be via PayPal.

I know that the centre is really in need of support at the moment, the pandemic is having a disproportionate impact on people, with an increased number in food poverty. I figure if I'm not eating out that is money I'd otherwise be spending so this seems like a very good cause. www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunitycentre

A drop in the ocean, but I've donated. www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunitycentre

Quite a stretch of road cordoned off

Does anyone know if Shaun's DIY is open at the moment? Wanting to avoid running the social-distancing gauntlet if its not open.

Finally, phew, reassuring to know. Long may this common sense and pragmatism continue. Last week it was a virus factory.

We are moving out and moving some stuff(furniture and belongings for the whole of our downstairs) out of our house due to renovations. Has anyone used any storage facility in and around/close to SE22? For example Dulwich Storage? We are nervous about Shurgard at Forest Hill as we heard about the Crystal Palace one and the fire and them not paying much compensation. Any and all recommendations much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much LuciaK

We are having an extension built in the new year, so we need a brand new kitchen. We have never bought a kitchen before (we?ve always moved into new build places) so we would love to have any recommendations of kitchen suppliers. Thanks in advance

Not quite eaten enough food and chocolate today, so already thinking about my next meal. Would love recommendations for brunch/breakfast on Easter Monday in ED, willing to walk to Peckham, Camberwell too to Feb a decent brekkie. Cant tell of the usual places who will be serving it tomorrow. Thanks in advance
