so nunhead is peckham then ??? you better tell the post office getting wrong all these years, let alone the welcome to nunhead sign.

Peckham and Dulwich have so many historical ties that it seems odd how officialdom recognises where boundary lines start and stop. I know that from Goose Green playground running along Adys RD north to Oglander (and roads coming off to the right) it comes under SE15. However, many estate agent websites claim that roads as far north as Bellenden come under East Dulwich.

Agreed, but I think everyone would consider Forest Hill Road and East Dulwich Road as sensible eastern and northern borders respectively, which puts the new Jaflong, being on the north side of EDR, into Peckham Rye I'd say.

Bit of a can of worms actually.


Some people consider Nunhead as being actually Peckham.


Some people don't :)

Already have!


No point banging head against brick wall any further.


The fox is always "right". Let's just leave it there.


I don't take kindly to being accused of lying, but hey ho, those who know me know I am a truthful person, so WTF.

Well Lou... What ever was said or not said.. a long while back on this sensitive issue. One thing is for sure..


The lady cannot be trusted to keep it to herself. But to come on here spurting out what WOULD of been a private off the cuff comment ?


Then it is I that deserves an apology.

As far as I know is will be 25th Aug. (Thursday) Speaking to Ruhul at Jaflong (1) they have already booked music for that night.

I have been told it is a Ticket event but will confirm here if Jaflong do not update.


But don't shoot the messenger if this don't happen.


Sue and I often have a pop on here. We are neighbours and neither of us are nasty or hold a grudge.

Nyge is alright guy.. who likes a quiet life. :)


They are not regulars at Curry Club. About time you made an appearance.


Whenever the next one might be. Getting withdrawal symptoms..

I wouldn't join any club that would have me as a member.

A totally cosmetic but commercially relevant point. That Jaflong signage, seriously, what were they thinking? Being a complete snob aside, what a waste of a golden opportunity to make the business relevant and catapult it into the 21st century from the get go. With something like 76% of consumers saying they enter a business they've never visited before based simply on signage. If i'd wanted to make a proper go of it and capture passing trade, I'd have gone all hipster on their arses, inspiring an "oooooh, let's try that" instead of an "oh look another generic indian restaurant." It's not like there isn't a plethora of good examples in the area to take note of....


That aside, good luck to them

As much as I love a nice curry, I am baffled by the number of pizza and curry based restaurants within the vicinity whilst we are still lacking a decent Mexican place. Someone needs to pull their finger out soon and get a wrap/burrito specialist into the neighborhood.

That's alright ... You do not need to join and there is no membership.

Wasn't that place on the corner next to Surma, which used to be another Indian restaurant but which has had a new sign outside for ages (XOCO?) supposed to be a Mexican restaurant?


There has been very little sign of any refurbishment activity inside.


Anybody know what has happened/is going to happen, if anything?


ETA: We used to have a Mexican restaurant on Lordship Lane - it just wasn't a very good one ..... on the stretch where GBK is.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch.

    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
