I'd like to add my thanks to Red Apple - order my 'specialist' mags for me and and are always friendly and chatty.

I especially admire them on Friday afternoons which I gather, is treat day for the local schoolkids, their patience and cheerfulness is always there.

WTF is in an illegal cocktail?


I do remember a local bar serving drinks with liquid nitrogen in them a while back, which apparently is rather dangerous..

On a more positive note than having your stomach removed after drinking a cocktail, I'd like to say how wonderful it is to have both Poundland and Lidl in Peckham.


Obviously you have to weed out the rubbish, but I've bought stuff in both places which were absolute bargains.


And I bought some great thermal tights in Primark last week, too, three pairs for a fiver :)

Shout out to the lovely lady Nikki on Upland Rd who kindly gave me 1 of her Christmas shopping bags after my carrier bag had split. I was getting into such a pickle until you came along, such a small gesture but it meant the world to me. Thank you again Nikki & Merry Christmas to you!!!!!! :)

god no nothing like that Jeremy?.it was just two different spirits (I think) that they wouldn't mix together. Despite the fact that they served the same drink earlier hence the positive shout out.


I'm sure it used to be on the menu/blackboard in the past too!

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
