After seeing other recommendations on EDF, I contacted Dave to help kick start my fitness journey as I prepared for my wedding.
I’ve now had the pleasure of working with Dave for the past year and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. 

Dave’s passion for helping his clients achieve their goals was evident. We meet weekly in dulwich park, and he tailors every workout session to fit my specific needs and goals. He pushed me whilst being mindful of my abilities and how I was feeling on the day. 

His extensive knowledge of fitness and nutrition made me feel confident that I was in good hands throughout the entire process.

Not only did I see significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness level but I also felt more energised and confident leading up to my wedding.

Dave not only helped me achieve my physical goals but also provided invaluable support and motivation along the way through his positive attitude and encouragement, reigniting my love of fitness and helping me encompass it back into my weekly routine. 

I cannot recommend Dave highly enough to anyone looking to get fit, whether it's for a special event like a wedding or simply to improve overall health and wellbeing!

I have been working with David on and off for the last year and i can honestly say he is keeping me motivated and increasing my activity and ability all the time. Post an old injury i have not been very mobile. David is patient and knowledgeable and always finds a workaround if something doesn't work for me. I am very happy to recommend him.

I was recommended Dave by my daughter who had been training with him for several months and who told me how much she enjoyed her sessions. I’d never really thought that personal training was something for me but I can honestly say Dave has motivated me to train regularly! He has just the right approach in terms of encouragement and spurring you on and I have learnt so much about the body and how to develop strength and mobility. I would certainly recommend him.

Fantastic Personal Trainer 

I can’t recommend David highly enough! From the very first session, it was clear that he is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely passionate about helping his clients achieve their goals. Every session is individually tailored to exactly what I need – whether that’s strength training, mobility work, cardio, or just a good old-fashioned sweat session – David always delivers with the perfect balance of challenge, encouragement, and fun.

What makes David truly stand out is his attention to detail. He takes the time to understand your personal goals, fitness level, and any limitations you might have, and then designs each workout to suit you perfectly. No two sessions are ever the same, and I always leave feeling stronger, more motivated, and more confident. As a runner, he designed a specific strength training plan which has really helped with my long distance runs. 

The flexibility of training either outdoors in the local park or in his well-equipped studio is another huge bonus. Whether we’re breathing in fresh air under the trees or wokring through a circuit inside, the environment is always welcoming, focused, and positive.

David is a true professional and a fantastic motivator. He’s helped me transform not only my fitness but also my mindset, and I’m so grateful for his support and guidance. If you're looking for a personal trainer who genuinely cares, knows his stuff, and brings great energy to every session – David is your guy!

    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.  
    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties. Sorry to continue the off topic conversation when the poor OP was just trying to find out who was open for lunch on Christmas Day!
    • We went to Chern Thai for lunch on Saturday, as we have done quite often, and they were closed, with no sign of life. The sign in the window still says Saturday 12-3, and there was no indication that they would be closed. Can anybody shed any light? We went to Chilli and Garlic on Zenoria Street instead. Their falafel salad bowl is amazing (and amazing value!) but we had been looking forward to a Pad Thai and a pint of Singha! ETA: I am reviving this thread because it is/was  specifically about Chern Thai's opening times!
