On behalf of myself and the other organisers, thank you to everyone who came to the Pellatt Road Party and made it such a special day. It was wonderful to meet so many of our Pellatt Road neighbours and see so many smiley faces.


Thank you to all the local businesses who offered amazing support for the party as well as our raffle. The Lordship for the bouncy castle, all those tables, for lending us your head chef to judge the bake off as well as for that great raffle prize, Oddono's, Myla and Davis, The Dulwich Picturehouse, Chener Books, Postmark and Lush Designs. Your generous prizes made our raffle possible, raising over ?350 in aid of the homelessness charity Shelter. Thank you so much.


Thank you to Lou at Captured on the Rye for bringing the candy floss machine and spin painting to the party, Matt for his guitar playing skills, Susan and Geraint for the wine tasting, to our local Police officer for testing out our bouncy castle and to the incredible Firefighters who entertained everyone with their space hopper racing skills!


Finally, a special thank you to our OldskoolDJ Tunji who we met for the first time in the run up to the party thanks to a poster in Lou's window. With his wide range of tunes and his determination to make the day as amazing as possible (from a lot of table carrying and assistance setting up to entertaining us all day with his tunes), I can't recommend Tunji highly enough. If you need a talented DJ for any event, please private message me....I would be delighted to pass on his contact details.


Thank you everyone.

Let's do this again next year!

Hi SammyK,


I'm really sorry you didn't get the invitation.


Before we got permission to do the party, we sent consultation letters to everyone on the street checking everyone was happy for us to proceed.


We then followed this with a letter - either hand delivered (if there was someone in) or posted through letter boxes (if there was no answer) telling residents of our plans and inviting ideas.


There was then a 3rd letter delivered to every house listing what was happening with laminated versions attached to lamp posts.


Our application was to close the entire length of the street but we were only given permission to close the middle section. We think this actually worked better in the end, but we certainly wanted everyone on the street to be invited and to come.


Really sorry you were missed out somehow.

Would you mind private messaging me your house number so that I can ensure you're not missed off next time.

(hope you still managed to join the party this time round).

That seems more plausible....

    • Looking for a battery operated cat feeder please.
    • Half my family are medics, going back generations, and none of them would ever have gone, or would now go, on strike. I know times have changed, but my family knew what they were signing up for, and accepted the detriment to their families and the hours (which, in the junior years, were way longer when they are now)... because it was not only a vocation, but a stable career for life. And they felt a genuine duty of care to their patients, whom they often put before their own children.  I can only conclude that entry-level junior doctors are more entitled these days. Plus, it's insensitive to nurses, who really do deserve a lot more money and recognition.  There are issues other than pay, like the lack of available posts, and having to move around the country, but they can be improved without a strike.  I don't think the right people are being recruited into the profession anymore. We're all on lower wages and paying more tax than we were ten years ago, but many of us just have to suck it up, work our socks off and get on with it.   
    • Beglfire I start, I have a lot of respect for Doctors and owe my life to them after various mishaps over the years.  I am however getting a jaded view of them continuing to run the strike ballot next week in the middle of what is turning into a bad winter for the NHS. Of course they may vote to not strike, but personally feel it is irresponsible timing to consider it as hospitals are already struggling.  Today the BMA warned of scaremongering over the current flu outbreak (BBC News - BMA warns of flu 'scaremongering' ahead of doctor strikes - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y22yzl6y6o) but just seeing how many people I know are going down with it, that feels like poor spin by the BMA. How do others feel ?   
    • We have also used Niko the plumber, he was great, fixed both of our leaking toilets and was also super helpful with advice about the shower leaking.
