  1. What in my humble option should happen is.. community hub..
  2. Thanks…wonder what is going to replace it… or maybe they will stay….
  3. Just read this on South London News… yuk, yuk, yuk… Constant change of staff who don’t wear gloves when touching cheese. Assuming lease is from Dulwich Estate, do they not vet their prospective tenants? Mice infested.. fined by Croydon Council… guess they can afford it.. Luky no one got sick or maybe they did….
  4. Try care homes locally…. Shop opposite Streatham Common that sells new - sorry for gotten name but if you google, sure you will find them… Facebook marketplace as well…
  5. Amazon
  6. Would be good if they turned it into something that is social/community driven for housing - old and young mix together. Let’s face it, dearth of social anything relating to housing… if that.could be combined with say, work area and gardening and cafe for all, everyone wins.. Dream on.. yea… certainly don’t need more large supermarkets, kitchen stores, Argos etc… Haven’t had time to look at plans…
  7. Well guess it is better than a couple or none…and nice to see the cross section of age groups. Pity though, in day time but know you tried a few years ago at nighttime around kids supper time and from memory only about 2/3. Just a pity like I have said that with crime rate clearly rising in ED more of the community can’t attend. Having said that, now we are approaching winter time, don’t think it would matter when as few would come out. Would be nice though to say change it to perhaps a weekend later pm say 4/5 , or in deed a weeknight when people are home from work in say Spring.. Maybe you should ask people in ED for their views or indeed how many might come if timings were changed.. up to you as you are the organiser of this I believe. And of course it depends on local bobbies schedule.
  8. So how many showed up for Cuppa with a Copper…..any with families or all older folk
  9. I am genuinely curious… what is this obsession with keeping children active with things to do after school. From what I know, most CV kids to rugby or football of a weekend but do they actually need activities during the week after school? What about going home, relaxing before homework and I don’t know, reading a book, drawing, Lego, constructing a car/plane.. even making some cookies…
  10. Sorry, yes Megans…place on Lordship Lane
  11. Well I for one, wish I had know when I have a very unnerving incident happen to me over a weekend had the number of local officer. Called and reported incident even did it on line - zero response. Could you possibly give our e mail address or numbers and names of our local bobbies please, or ask their permission for those of us who can’t attend in the middle of the week on a working day.
  12. Staff have changed and owner now taking a more active role….she is such a nice+lady so I encourage you to try again . I am all for supporting local business and personally very glad after appalling service earlier this year Gail’s has closed.. Change of staff and chefs were unreal.. In one month alone must have had at least 4 new chefs plus god knows how many waiters/ waitresses.. when Ai saw that happening, new it was gonna be down hill all the way.
  13. Point is.. top two have quit.. BBC is now what? From being well respected world wide.. not only for news, programs, no idea about pod casts.. Only thing we as a country do well currently is broadcast remembrance service…. Lets face it.. only country that I know of who can release wrong people from jail.. one gave himself up if news is to believed and the other is where? Only country I know of who actually pay people to leave, flights etc and they are back in country .. all heard via Radio 4…
  14. May I ask as I am interested to know.. what was the age range? Know, that when I lived there, tried early evening & that was worse as people who might have been interested in attending had kids to deal with… supper, after school activities, etc.. and older folk didn’t want to go out. Would it not be better to do it over a weekend? Say Sat as opposed to Sun when some go to church and of course clashes with activities for kids whichever day one chooses. I get one has to do it when bobbies are available… Given the incidents around ED, would have thought this would be a better approach or perhaps, link it in with the guy from council was very proactive.. Just strikes me, that people who might wish or want to attend, would not be available.. work being one..
  15. Why didn’t you challenge it then?
  16. Had another great meal there…. those that haven’t tried it, give it a go.. have a special lunch menu as well so you can get a flavour of the food.
  17. I use Autocar Repair in West Dulwich.. been using them for over 20 years. Excellent service…
  18. Don’t think so, what they do is send a letter with a caution and outline what happens if you are caught ie 3 points on licence, fine or if you are a lucky first timer, fine an on line speed awareness course.
  19. Been going on for years all over Dulwich, Peckham and Forest Hill Area..
  20. Move on.. life is to short..
  21. Who knows.. point is, reached national press and radio. says zero for people in power and if it is correct a local established agent in Dulwich. Oh, so that is all fine..in my book, no.! Agent was at fault and also lanldlord for not making sure .. nothing to do with being in power or not.. As a landlord and an agent you have legal responsibilities..
  22. Why don’t you just support them? Independent, not a chain, helpful if you know not what you are ordering. Spring Rolls are in all Asian Cultures.. not a bog standard thing you get from a local Chinese take away!
