Simone is an amazing boxing coach and an inspirational person. Her classes are hard work in the best possible way! She always gets the most out you and is so motivating. I am totally addicted and have never felt fitter/healthier! What sets Simone apart is that she really cares about all her clients. She helps you to achieve your goals if you have them and set them if you don?t. I?ve been going for over a year and still loving every minute of her teaching me. Definitely the best exercise and trainer of my life. You won?t be disappointed if you give this a go (especially as the classes are so friendly).

Simone is amazing. If you go to one of her classes you will not regret it. She is really motivational and encouraging. I almost don?t want to recommend her as I really think she is East Dulwich?s best kept secret! I?ve been going to her classes for a year now and hope never to stop.

All these stories are frightening, I am sorry to hear them and I hope you are all ok. I am afraid to say the police still haven't turned up to our incident even after reporting the second sighting...

Amazingly enough, my husband has just spotted these two men on the corner of Trossachs Road and Glengarry Road about 60 minutes ago. I've just been out and around the block myself to see if I can see where they have gone to but I can't see them now (they saw my husband, we are fairly certain they recognised him as they started nudging each other). Obviously we can't positively identify one of them as we didn't seem him on Tuesday but he was wearing the same dark blue hoodie. He is very tall and lanky, dark skin. The other one was also wearing the same loose grey hoodie as he wore on Tuesday. We can confirm he is of medium build (definitely not big), very pale and has a small mousy moustache.

Unfortunately it only shows one of them from behind so isn't much use to identify them

Thanks James I will take a look. Robin I am afraid my description may not be very helpful as it was all a bit of a blur. One had a black hoodie and had run away before I could get a look at him. The other one had a grey loose hoodie, with black loose trousers. He was medium build, about mid twenties, white (unusually pale skin), kind a flat, round face, skin head (no discernible hair colour). Sorry I wish I could be more specific...

Hi joe I am really sorry to hear that this happened to you. I will PM you so we can swap details

Fellow neighbours I just wanted to alert you an attempted burglary at our house today. This happened in broad daylight with all of the family at home so I wanted to share it. I was cooking my young kids' dinner at 5pm when I walked through our hall and saw a hooded man standing behind the door to the side of our house. The door is kept locked and we keep our bicycles locked in that space. Without thinking about it much I screamed and ran out of the house after him where it became clear there were two of them that were making off with my husband's bicycle (they had cut through the lock). I was running so fast I slipped and fell onto the pavement. Luckily, had it not been for the intervention of a totally heroic charity (British Heart Foundation) worker who was making calls along our street, they would have got away with the bike. The charity worker grabbed the bike and stopped one of the men who started shouting that he hadn't done anything. By this point my husband came out so I went in to look after the kids. It was all a bit of a blur and a shock but we were shocked at how brazen this attempted theft was, especially given our neighbours have CCTV (and now have a picture of one of the men). As I said, we were all at home, this was in daylight and the door and bikes were locked.

That's great, thanks for the information Rendel.

Does anyone know the history of the housing estate built near the crossroads of East Dulwich Grove and Greendale/Townley Road? Does anyone know how I can find out about it? I was just wondering why all the street names are Dutch places (e.g. Delft, Ni[j]megen). Thanks for any clues.

I couldn't agree more. I think this is very antisocial behaviour and wish that all dog owners would respect their neighbourhoods and neighbours enough to clean up after their dogs. I imagine that the few errant dog owners that are doing this are also doing a big disservice to the majority of dog owners who are careful about cleaning up.
