Hi,


I was looking for a good schools (primary),similar criteria.All South East has great ones.I think you can find best in Forest hill,West Norwood,maybe Dulwich (I just ruled out Dulwich for other reasons).I have been visiting both private and public,to get the best community and artistic feeling,with a stress to not so conformist schools,but a lovely chatty pupils :).Then I balanced the green space(of the school).Nothing would thick from outstanding ,then I visited good once..and settled for good one(non uniform school) that has amazing atmosphere,arty head and great result too.There are about 4-5 outstanding school in Forest hill that I would have been happy ,so not a great risk if the one chosen is not best,but so far very lucky with Kilmore.Use locating.com ,you can be selective of different criteria(outstanind,top 10 and have links to houses i think).I like forest hill/Honor oak area and you have direct overground to Canada water.Ou just need to go now and see ,although most schools have less open days now.I think that you get better value for money in Forest hill too,Dulich has smaller gardens terraced ?800-1000K with 10-15m garden,while here you would get a massive garden and probably detached period house.If you want pm me as I have visited few schools in Herne hill,West Norwood,etc .Good luck.In regards to secondary I thought I could not thick that in SE and will look when the times comes depending to children( academic or more artistic),might be private if I can find something non so conformist :)

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertises times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
