Oi! I'm Spurs fan and rarely confused apart from when I've mixed up my drugs with too much alcohol or vice versa. I certainly wouldn't get confused between White Hart Lane and Lordship Lane but, yes I have heard it called the Strip on many occasions but that would refer to the bit where all the restaurants and bars are from the EDT to the Magdala.

Fear n' boozing and I have called it the strip before, but only in a p!ss taking manner.


I only heard "The Lane" recently when my sister said she'd heard it.... It's rubbish, but it is easier to say when drunk! I usually just point in the general direction and say "I'm going sown there for beer"... People get what I'm saying ;-)


As for "Town", I had a girlfriend a few years back from Oooop North, and when we stayed in Dulwich for the first time. she told me she was going to go in to town. I of course instructed her to walk down to Lordship Lane, and jump on a 176, only for her to look at me like I was mental... That said, Lordship Lane is rather more lively that the actual centre of the town she was from!


If anything, I actually like "The Strip", just because it's such an obvious p!ss take >:D<

Is it only me or did anyone else think that photo of Helen Lederer was simply dreadful? Last month she was in Dulwich Life magazine, and she looked happy and life like. A normal pretty woman of her age. In the Living South she looked so airbrushed that she was unrecognisable. Why did they do that?

    • Another glowing recommendation for Keith. We’re incredibly grateful to EDF for helping us find Keith - I had lots of other quotes from companies who were upselling the work we needed, whereas Keith was very friendly, honest, knowledgeable and competitively priced.  He was incredibly communicative through the whole job and carefully thought through his approach. He did lime mortar repointing along with some brick and masonry repairs, and did everything to a very high standard. We could absolutely trust his advice. He’s lovely to chat to and very respectful of neighbours, clearly communicating when there would be noise or mess. He organised the scaffolding company who were also excellent (Reliable Scaffolding). They worked around limited parking and were prompt to take down the scaffolding once the work was finished. The scaffolding was also much cheaper than other quotes.  Couldn’t recommend Keith enough, it’s a pleasure to have him working on the house and we already have him booked in to do another job for us. 
    • If you mean the joinery firm that made windows and doors, it closed down several years ago and a private house was built on the site.
    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
