Hi I am going here and very much looking forward to it- judging by the reviews!

How the heck did you find & manage your builder?
Dodo1 replied to cantthinkofaname's topic in The Family Room Discussion
hi we are using an architect (found here) who has asked several builders to quote for our ground floor remodelling. -
Would you send your child to private secondary?
Dodo1 replied to LouieM's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Hi Fyi Over 40% of children at the 3 Whitgift Schools do not pay full fees (Whitgift/ Trinity/ Old Palace-Girls). Regarding OP they run a mini bus service from here; and it is only ?2 each way! -
Also try King's Pirates- you can find details if you do a search here
-
We can also recommend Chryssanthi (and her brother); as they are currently working on an exciting refurb for us! ------------------------------------------------------- > Chryssanthi Perpatidou [email protected] > - She won the competition for the cafe at > Mountsfield Park in Lewisham which just got > planning! > https://www.architecture.com/FindAnArchitect/Archi > tectPractices/OfficetwentyfiveArchitectureLLP/Proj > ects/MountsfieldParkCafe-144355.aspx

Yes- because we do the same to Sydenham which means that you have a chance of getting a seat! Also as I said earlier we now have access to the Victoria/ Orpington line which is great for lots of reasons.

Hi We moved last year to Sydenham after 16 years of living in Ed; and don't regret it. One of the plus points for us is the better transport connections. As well as having access to the Overground we now have access to the line that goes to Victoria/ Orpington- stopping at Bromley/ Beckenham/ Brixton which is great. And ED/ Peckham is only 15 mins by car which is nothing outside London.

Summer Holiday Play Schemes- child care vouchers
Dodo1 replied to Dodo1's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Thanks! -
Hi Just wondering if anyone knows of any holiday play schemes that you can pay with using child care vouchers? Last year Fit4 Sport at Dulwich College accepted them but they lost the contract and the new provider isn't registered. Thanks,

Try old palace in croydon- they have a minibus service that picks up from here.
-
We had a meal there and left disappointed. The guy who served us didn't seem particuarly bothered even when they cocked up an order.

Try Aston Rose Essex Rd Islington

Avoid Barcelona. Best one around is Angels & Gypsies but you have to book.

Hi We are currently using Chryssanthi from 025 Architects based in Brockely. We found Chryssanthi from recommendations here.

Can you make roots in East Dulwich for a growing family?
Dodo1 replied to benb's topic in The Family Room Discussion
I wouldn't worry too much. We moved to Sydenham after living in ED for 15 years and have spent just as much time in local restaurants as we did before! Remember to anyone outside London 2 or 3 miles is nothing especially once they start secondary school and go all over London (or outside). -
Shocking car crash on Overhill Road
Dodo1 replied to Tuffstuff100's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
yes- there was another black car involved. i also think that it was as a result of a car going in the bus lane and the other car not seeing it as it turned. -
GM's- Melbourne Grove.
-
Another recommendation for Casey's

Have you ever taken a company to the small claims court?
Dodo1 replied to Alan Medic's topic in The Lounge
Hi How much does the court charge? I amthinking of doing this as I am owed ?60? -
Hi I would also recommend Melange. The lady who runs it is wonderful and will take her time to explain to you. She also runs a chocolate museum in Brixton. Also Rococo are based in West Dulwich. ------------------------------------------------------- > I went to Melange this afternoon, only to find > that sadly they had nothing in boxes, only > chocolate bars in cellophane bags, which was not > quite what I was after, nice though I'm sure they > are. > > They said that they did not do truffles after > Easter because nobody wanted them ?!?!?! but would > be starting them again in a week or so (too late > for me). > > Since time was getting short, I have ended up > with two middle-of-the-road boxes from > Sainsbury's, not what I was after at all, will > have to wrap them prettily and hope the recipients > don't notice they are Thorntons and Green & > Black's :(
