Is that the site that was Big Bellys at one time ? I suspect that they have an eye on the flats that will be going up in the builders yard space as this will be right at the entrance.

Temporary traffic lights on East Dulwich Grove
ed_pete replied to ed_pete's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
The TW leak is right outside JAGS at the top of the hill and water was flowing in both directions. At one point, combined with the thunderstorm on Sunday afternoon, the road under the bridge on Village Way was flooded as it couldn't drain fast enough. Traffic was turning around rather than risking it. I don't think the lights on the bend are related but could be I guess. -
Anyone know why temporary lights were put in on East Dulwich Grove on Sunday but as of 8am this morning no works are evident ? I imagine works are planned but have been delayed but the team putting in the lights have gone ahead anyway. 🙄 Just as well Alleyns and JAGS have finished...

There was a photo of him a couple years ago wearing a “Fuck The Tories” Christmas Jumper. I wonder if those will all have been quietly removed. Brilliant fodder for the right wing press.

Does this announcement mean the new stadium is going ahead on the Astroturf site after all ? And the development of the old stadium into housing will also go ahead or does this need more planning approval ?

Went to see the Tony-Winning Stereophonic last night, the play that is apparently not about the recording of Rumours but is set in a recording studio in Sausalito in the late 70's and features a band with three Brits (two men, one woman) and two Americans (one man, one woman). It was good but I wasn't blown away, wasn't helped by the number of people chomping on noisy snacks throughout the performance !

Family holiday - south of France - by train?
ed_pete replied to stellakis's topic in The Family Room Discussion
While I can't recommend any destination, for European train travel advice take a look at the man in seat 61 website - it's a mine of useful information. -

Just been to see Giant at the Harold Pinter theatre. Fabulous. I can see why John Lithgow won an Olivier.

Six new town houses on Melbourne Grove
ed_pete replied to ed_pete's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
They are being squeezed into the land on the site of the old Melbourne Grove surgery that closed when Tessa Jewell opened. Kind of behind where Il Mirto was. -
Are these the houses being built where the old doctors surgery used to be ? In which case is that the view from Railway Rise 😆

Library of things at Dulwich leisure centre
ed_pete replied to Dulwich Born And Bred's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Just wanted to remind everyone of this facility. It is in the Leisure Centre foyer and so accessible during the normal opening hours. I've just used the SDS drill (which comes with drill and chisel bits and eye & ear protection) for under a tenner for a day. Equipment was in very good nick and process was more easier and more convenient that traditional hire shop. https://libraryofthings.co.uk/ -
Used notes ?

I can't guarantee that they'll have what you're after but I was very impressed with The Nunhead Gardener this week. I'd also been to Croxted Road and the Pot and Plant next to North Dulwich Station and the selection at both paled by comparison.
-
I'm guessing it must have been early. I passed about 7:30 and there was no signs of police or ambulance only the recovery truck. My guess is that the bin lorry was approaching from the JAGS direction, heading down the hill, turned right, overcooked it and tipped. Hopefully no one was seriously injured though I imagine those in the lorry must been hurt.
-
I wonder how this happened? Recovery truck arrived.

Interesting the projected demand. One imagines that you don't undertake this kind of investment without the business case to back it up. There's one going up near a friends office in the City that is for 782 students. OK, these are much closer to HE establishments but there still has to be the demand. https://dominusrealestate.co.uk/projects/65crutchedfriars/

Pavement widening outside M&S nr East Dulwich station...
ed_pete replied to EDmummy101's topic in Roads & Transport
Just wait until the works start on builders merchants redevelopment - which I'm guessing will take 3+ years - carnage on railway rise with the constant to-ing and fro-ing of lorries. Woe betide M&S if they block it with their deliveries... -
There is already a thread about these roadworks:
