  5. Feel free and good luck. The noticeboard hasn't been properly used since it was maintained by the lovely woman in Health Matters.
  6. James Barber is an amazing human being. Caring and got things done.
  7. Dulwich Cake Co on Instagram or Friddles are great local small businesses. Or Sweet Carolina also good, I think based a little further but deliver locally.
  8. Really unhelpful post. I can only assume you don't have to do a school run and get to and from work on a daily basis. Of course I'm not using the logic you claim I'm using. Ridiculous point for the sake of a point and yes we all know certain works are necessary (pavements being widened and made more cyclist friendly that's another debate). I was simply saying PLANNED works (as these all are to my knowledge) should be staggered wherever possible; not be planned in simultaneously. I've just seen a sign saying yet more roadworks on Barry Road. Sigh. You don't seem to need to travel in rush hour, plus nobody expects the same traffic issues on Fridays generally as lots now work from home. Issue is early morning and early evening Mon to Thurs on the whole. Rush hour for commuters and those doing school runs or trying to get to hospital appointments etc.
  9. Yawn.. as I and others suspected the noticeboard is already looking shabby, has the details of local councillors who in my experience are of very limited help with anything at all (e.g. noticeboard took several years of writing to get back in working order and now isn't being kept up to date with any useful local info about food banks or any services as promised). So nothing at all in left hand side. Pointless and a real shame as could benefit so many small businesses.. and no I don't own a small business I just believe in supporting shopping locally where possible and know they often have little to no marketing budget.
  10. All I want is for local service providers to be more joined up in their thinking and when they plan in works to consider the impact on those using buses to get to work or hospital appointments etc if they plan in simultaneous upgrade works on each of the major roads to East Dulwich (and Denmark Hill), Forest Hill and Peckham Rye - as at present all the main roads near the stations have roadworks and temporary traffic lights, with some bus stops closed too. Ellie wrote to the council and they replied to say they had thought because the works were quite a distance from each other there wouldn't be a huge impact, so I've written to ask that they consider the impact on traffic to and from each station when planning in future works. So to answer your question, I wasnt expecting the earth.. just common sense to be applied when people in companies plan these works. Hope that makes sense to everyone locally, especially in light of LTNs also affecting traffic on main roads (whether for or against everyone surely must agree they've led to more traffic on the main roads, as that's simply what happens by introducing a low traffic neighbourhood (see separate thread for LTNs). Or indeed those planning without common sense!
  11. Well said. All the roadworks up and down East Dulwich could have been far better planned in, so as to avoid 3-4 sets of roadworks happening at once around ED station, on Lordship Lane towards Forest Hill and on Peckham Rye. This means there isn't one route you can get a bus to a train station at anything other than snail pace. I've written to our MP Ellie Reeves as it seems never ending... yes we agree they're vital works but there is minimal communication with residents and having closed roads to create LTNs the buses many of us rely on (especially if our morning and evening involves a nursery or school run) are impossibly slow. Infuriating and so stressful as it affects work too for those who have to go into the office regularly. Cycling and walking not always options.
  12. We used Tom King recently to repair two light switches and have used him in the past for moving a plug socket. He's a lovely guy as well as the utmost professional. Very reliable and helpful, talks you through what's needed with a repair and charges reasonable rates, especially as some electricians charge the earth in this area now. Highly recommended!
