Very fancy website - I could have ended up staring at those dots for hours! All it needed was a whale song soundtrack and a bit of Enya!!


It doesn't seem as if it is going to be the 'regular' type of gym, does it? And in a way that is good 'cos it leaves me hope that Fusion will one day (we can but dream) be refurbed and made into a nicer space with a much nicer pool.


And the Fusion gym is busy at non-peak times, (so it must be a nightmare at peak times, trying to get on the machines and having time limits on use, which is annoying). In the meanwhile it's off to Streatham I schlep. Or maybe I should just get used to running in the cold, cold rain! Certainly cheaper, and with my own soundtrack!

OK, I can CONFIRM that 116 Lordship Lane is to be the site for the new gym/physio. They have not yet started building but it will be the ground floor (only) of 116. They will be shutting down their Camberwell branch to move here.


The lovely owner Elizabeth (who I met whilst standing in the queue at Moxons) also mentioned that she would love some of us to leave some feedback as to what we would like to see from a local gym to fit our busy lifestyles. Bear in mind that this is a small site.

PS - YIPPEE, the value of my nearby flat just went up!

I'm one of 3 owners of es physical health. We are a family owned and managed business and have been going for 30 years. Elizabeth Sharp is the Clinical Director, I am the Managing Director and Alexei Sharp is our Financial Director. 2 brothers and a mother. We currently have 2 sites - one in Camberwell and one in central London. I am very happy for you to email me with suggestions for what you would like to see in the new health and fitness centre. You can also keep an eye on our website (www.esphysicalhealth.com) where a model of the interior will be posted in time. 116 Lordship Lane will have 5 treatment rooms offeirng physiotherapy, massage, dietetics, acupuncture, podiatry and related therapies, 3 exercise spaces divided into a pilates studio for equipment pilates, a matwork studio for yoga, tai chi, swiss ball and healthy back classes (amongst many others) and a small gym with treadmills and resistance equipment. All our classess will be done in small groups with the emphasis on supervision and quality (So right up Mrs Mutley's street). Our philosophy is to combine quality therapy with quality exercise provision under one roof. There will be a form of membership, although this will be restricted to ensure that each individual has a quality of experience and supervision as standard. We will never charge a sign on fee and membership will start at about ?45 per month. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Best wishes, Max.

    • A belated recommendation for Iain and Paul od Oddbods who came to help me with various jobs before Christmas.  Painting ceiling, renewing silicone around bath, repairing a window sill which was almost beyond repair and hanging a large mirror.   Very happy with their work and they are friendly and very reliable and excellent at communicating.  No hesitation in recommending them.
    • I just wanted to post for all my neighbours a recommendation of Niko, the wonderful plumber who works locally. Niko has done work for me over the years, including large and small jobs. He recently replaced four radiators in my house which have helped us really be warm for the first time! I recommend Niko so whole heartedly because (1) he is completely straight forward and will advise you not to do something / a cheaper solution, if that is what is best for you; and (2) he is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever known. He goes the extra mile to sort out problems, particularly urgent ones.   
    • Scaremongering - there is very little vacant land in East Dulwich available as sites for building 9 storey buildings so this is rather hypothetical. It could even be said the occasional taller, modern building breaks up the monotony of Victorian terraced housing.
    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
