Not East Dulwich but West Dulwich: Peace & Riot has rebranded as At No 12, and is now a conventional (but still family-friendly) coffee shop and wine bar. Because I'd never been in all the way before, I hadn't realised what a nice space they have. There's also a decent garden/deck. Definitely rocketing to top spot in my favoured W Dulwich places.

Almost word perfect article. Woulda deleted the Piccadilly Circus section because it's a bit hacky.

I have been told that the Dulwich Foundation Schools are organising Ukrainian coffee mornings in Dulwich on a weekly basis. Sign up below. Obviously attendees don't need to have an existing connection with Dulwich or the schools! Link below https://forms.office.com/r/x7SmUmh96t

It turns out the difference between someone (CPR Dave) being ironically stupid and merely stupid is nothing...

Maybe shopkeepers understand how to run shops better than people who don't. 💡

There's a been a social night for Ukrainians being hosted by the White Eagle Polish Club in Tooting - would be worth following the clubs Facebook profile. Also, they have a "boutique" to outfit newly-arrived people with clothes etc. https://www.facebook.com/490333667805651/posts/2043767025795633/ https://fb.watch/dr8kiAAXml/

I would batch up the comics and sell them on eBay with lots of photos and description. You can donate whatever money you make directly to charity.

Only if drivers don't pay attention while they're driving.

It's that Khan is advocating a "managed decline", it's that if he doesn't get the money he wants, he will have to implement a managed decline plan. The phrase has been used a number of times by TfL/London over the past couple of years when explaining how bad things will go if they don't get the funding. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/tfl-funding-bus-cuts-sadiq-khan-government-elizabeth-line-b1001116.html?amp

Kids have not been helped by a dogmatic insistence on either "mainstreaming" or segregation for all SEN kids.

I can't see anything on there now and Google isn't throwing up any results with the quoted text. I'm probably missing it

If it's so important for their kids to be educated in their faith then they can get their arse into gear and take their kids along to Sabbath School or Summer School.

Spartacus Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > > He spent the whole journey telling all the > passengers about the bus what it was capable of, Seeing as I've already contaminated this thread with moaning: this is my bugbear at tube stations. I keep wanting to tell the platform dispatchers "just because you have a mic, it doesn't mean you need to gamble into it constantly...". But there, unlike here, I keep my unwanted opinions to myself.

There's sod all money in selling diesel or petrol these days - it's just a hook to get people into the convenience store.

The old trains were always a bit sad and savvy, but at least you could open the windows on them...

I think some are 3x2...

How do you know? Could you see the camera behind the mirror?

I'm not here to defend police and can think of plenty of criticisms and they are too few but my direct experience in this exact neighbourhood is: 1) having reported a similar-ish issue to Safer Neighbourhood Team they responded in a couple of hours and took a reasonable response 2) having reported dangerous and illegal driving through the Met website with photos, they issued Notices of Intention to Prosecute to the registered keepers.

Safer Neighbourhood Team - you can contact them thru. https://www.met.police.uk/a/your-area/met/southwark/goose-green/
