Just want to say thank you to the lady who stood at the end of Hindmans Rd this evening when I was frantically searching for my runaway 4 year old. In the heat of the moment (being said son's return after legging it completely around the block - including running up Barry Rd) I did not get a chance to thank you for looking out for him.


The police have now visited him and given him a good talking to. Fingers crossed he won't do it again to "look at the cars"!

I did exactly the same at that age and it was a sort of bravado of showing off to my mother how fast I could run,


and then she taught me what the back of her hand felt like.


She was distraught, and furious at the possibility of being seen as an unfit mother.


I never did it again as I was fiercely against capital punishment when administered upon me.

Probably a good thing I didn't give him a hiding. The police turned up 10 minutes later although they knew he had returned. Apparently it is standard practice to follow up on missing children calls. The police man gave him a brilliant talking to!

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By Rockets · Posted

      Which has, unfortunately, closed. Au Ciel is much better than Gail's. Big bakery in the parade of shops near Rocca in Dulwich Village with all the seats outside - you can't miss it. Normally a big queue outside at weekends with walkers and cyclists topping up on carbs and coffee!

      Attempted car theft - Underhill

      By muffins78 · Posted

      Hi, just to say there was an attempted car theft at the FH end of Underhill over Friday night. Without wanting to go into all the detail, they were pretty adamant and took a great deal of time to (try) take the car. The police came within minutes, and drove around etc.. The police said the car was in demand at the moment. I don’t know if that was brand or model. notwithstanding what the police said, all car owners should be vigilant and neighbours. These thieves were interrupted twice by neighbours, but the thieves came back etc and the neighbours didn’t put 2+2 together as to what was happening to the car. The thieves were two guys, on the cctv it looked like they were wearing grey, but it may have been black (cctv can look odd at night). My neighbours said they were black. They had a bag with them, no doubt carrying tools and they may have been dropped off by a car, that is being investigated.  Take care!!
