  1. It's the owner I sneer at. I was actually in among the feral youths, beggars, blaggers and general wasters (as you might call them) of the Spoons in Forest Hill a couple of days ago. Maybe we can meet for a pint there? I'm sure you're a nice person. PM me - quick before you get banned (again). https://eastdulwichforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=2069838#p2069838
  2. Wow, they're nuts. Why bother? Good luck with getting it all sorted
  3. No-one ever goes onto Trustpilot to say that everything's going fine with their monopolist water utility... What exactly has gone wrong for you?
  4. Planning portal says that the former Barclays Bank in Dulwich Village is going to be a dental surgery.
  5. Cartoonist Posy Simmons, discussing croutons in rather good French with a jolly stallholder on North Cross Road. Mark Curry was standing behind her but it didn't seem interested - not sure if that's because he objects to croutons (as I do) or just he doesn't speak French.
  6. How much "dialogue nuance" [sic] is a person who uses a slur entitled to? "Who are you gonna believe? Me or your own eyes?"
  7. Adam's Cafe (39 Grove Vale, next to Cherry Tree pub) has been taken over by a couple of friendly young guys. Classic cafe food done nicely, and very reasonable prices. Meanwhile, Tesco Metro in West Dulwich is closed for two weeks while they renovate in. Hopefully they can make it feel a little less gloomy.
  8. 🎣 Looking forward to you opening up a bakery called "Nuns' Farts & Cappuccinos".
  9. Yeah...well...kaffir lime might be a real food, but I wouldn't name my business after it... Why? Vegans can't be dodgy? 🤣 You know who else was a vegan, don't you?
  10. Wetherspoons business isn't about buying short dated beer tho. You don't supply hundreds of pubs with hectolitres of Stella and WKD every week with leftovers.
  11. Hopefully someone who isn't Tim Martin can take it over and run it, keeping the reasonable prices and food. I just can't forgive him for his Brexit views or for being the dad of the Coldplay bloke.
  12. Stradella Rd is all Herne Hill. Burbage Rd north of the railway bridge is Herne Hill. Burbage Rd between the railway bridge and Turney Rd is Dulwich, but not Dulwich Village. Burbage Rd between Turney Rd and Dulwich Village (the street) is Dulwich Village.
  13. The Devil makes work for idle hands.
  14. I'm a fan of the skate park, but I don't live next to it, and if someone who does mentions that it can be noisy - why disbelieve them or suggest they're acting in bad faith? Obviously something is going to be noisier than nothing which is what there was immediately before the skatepark. I assume a skate park would be quieter than a pub on the South Circular...but the noise from a skate park might be harsher and more clattery 🤷‍♂️
  15. Think it was only after the Kings Cross fire that smoking on buses and tubes was banned. Seems totally mad in retrospect.
  16. How dare you suggest I'm not okay 😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬
  17. This, but unironically. Works in Japan...
  18. That's great, thank you for sharing!
  19. The bikes are very good. They're also not going away. The fix is actually easy: require them to chained to railings, lampposts, bike stands etc. The problem is they're just left in the middle of pavements etc. Many of the existing models have integrated locks but users don't need to use them.
  20. Not as simple as that. If there are 4-5 of them dumped in one place, it's probably not renters but Lime's own operatives that have left them there. As far as I can see, they're flinging them out of a van a few of a time. I have seen them dumped right on the bobbled flagstones of zebra crossing etc. This is a problem created by the rental companies. What do you think actually happens if you call that number to complain about badly parked bikes? Did that just yesterday and following regular postings about the issue and calling the number the bike was removed, job done, success. That's encouraging, well done. Too bad you had to do it in the first place!
  21. Why don't you just get to the point and say what you mean? You've obviously got some conspiracy theory going. Spit it out!
  22. What if the consultation was dreampt up by a magic carrot with an ambition to become Nebraska's leading tap dancer?

  24. Car is parked illegally Car is not taxed or MOT'd Car has amusing bumper sticker Car is same as car previously owned by photographer Photographer has Instagram account for boring cars (this exists) Driver of car did something naughty Photographer is very curious Do I get a prize if I guess correctly?
  25. Owners or tenants? You might be able to moan to the landlord or managing agents. You can often find the last rental listing if you Google the property's address.
