Ask for a discount on Christmas tree prices. The guys who sell Christmas trees on my forecourt at the old William Angel Gallery have made a point of offering a discount to anyone who goes down and mentions the East Dulwich Forum. I always get a tree from the guys, (this is their fourth year selling there), and the trees are very good quality.

Hi Sean - thanks for your reply and your PM.


Understand these things are a bit random and its probably just bad luck. I would happily take you up on your kind offer... if I hadn't just broken my foot and was housebound for the rest of the year! But I appreciate you getting in touch.

Sorry about your foot.


You could spray the bare branches gold or silver?

Every year people set up in pub car parks etc selling trees. I suspect they don't need to work the rest of the year because they make a killing. Every year they say what a bad year it has been (early frost, late frost, too wet, too dry...) for the trees.


Where is the competitive pressure from us as consumers and other suppliers?


Great to know. I did buy from a couple of places but every year they hiked their prices up.

    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
