agree with daizie, the friendship factor may have dwindled but people trying to flog stuff seems as busy as ever.:)

- People met each other, became friends and cut out the middle man.


- Or met each other and had a spat


- Or got married (hats off)


- Most topics have now been done to death. Square plates being a notable exception.


- Lack of new posters with a brain (would a quick glance tempt you to post if you were new?)


- Inanity (as per Rosie's post above)...and yes you Woof!


- I'll say it....ED is far less interesting now than it was in the Great Age of Gentrification (circa 2000-2007) when property was cheap and new services, shops and bars sprouted by the month to the excitement of all concerned.


(If you enjoyed the ride move to Nunhead or Bellenden fringes for the next one)


- The suit count started to outweigh the creatives (always a sign that the next wave is elsewhere - see hoxton now).

If you think EDF is dead, you should check out Virtual Norwood aka Virtual Borewood, and now called by some wag Virtual Deadwood.


The admin there has suspended many of the movers and shakers in the local community who were posting about goings on at the Chamber of Commerce, and in particular about the plans by Chamber chair Mr Hall to build a ruddy great shopping centre on Crystal Palace Park.

    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
    • Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this. It's got nearly 70,000 signatures at present, and apparently runs till February.
    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
