Above sighting reminded me of this post.

There goes the neighbourhood, next there will be Dragons atop of Dawson's Heights, Johnny White Walkers in the EDT and three eyed crows in Peckham Rye https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,2037466


Mark my words , Friday night fights just won't be the same once the Unsullied get involved

I'm not sure if it's "creepy", people have always been drawn to celebrities... it's only natural, if you're into a particular TV show or whatever. And to an extent it's part and parcel of pursuing a career in the public eye. There is a line, of course, but nobody is discussing what road they live on, posting secret photos of them, or anything like that.


However... saying that... I've not really heard of any of these people. (I mean, I've heard of Eastenders and Game Of Thrones, but wouldn't recognize any cast members - except for Sharon and the Mitchell brothers).

This, surely, is also about cognitive dissonance. By saying famous people (people we know/ have heard of) live around us we are trying to confirm our decision to live or stay here. If famous people shop where we shop then surely we must have taken the right location decisions? We gain, additionally, by osmosis, that their fame and fashionability will somehow rub off on us. I don't really think this is either creepy or in any way stalking. We have stumbled upon them in a public place, not searched for them in private ones.

I'd be interested in his view of this execrable thread and its longevity. Did you have a chance to discuss it?

    • Just a quick post to say that my restaurant reviews column is now one year old. There are 45 reviews here* - mostly of local places (some sadly now defunct, others thriving). There are a couple of recipes from a period when I couldn't afford to eat out, a couple of moans about my health when I couldn't eat out on doctor's orders and a couple of reviews beyond our manor. But the main thing is that it is a free, useful guide to local dining and, I hope, an entertaining read. You can, of course, pay to subscribe or follow for free to get the reviews directly into your inbox as I don't want to spam EDF with every review (doctor says I'm not allowed spam anyway). The pictures below come from my two most popular reviews - Persepolis (new SE22 spin-off opening soon) and Norbert's, a great addition to East Dulwich. Please have a read and please consider subscribing. Did I mention you can subscribe for free?   https://eatsdulwich.substack.com/  *It would have been 46 but one review didn't run because the meal was so disappointing. I try not to be negative. To paraphrase Boyzone (or is it Westlife?) I said it best by saying nothing at all. 
    • I'd like to recommend Andy - came out very last minute to help us with a rental property that was having plumbing issues. We couldn't source the problem but Andy was able to find it / fix it easily & took the stress out of the problem. We have booked him again to put in a new bath for us now too as we were so happy with this work.    Lovely fella - thoroughly recommend using! Andy's number is 07983 688 451
    • If you're looking for a reasonably priced gym, there are a couple of PureGyms not too far away in Camberwell and Peckham. They're less than £20 a month with no joining fee. If you're looking to get fitter and / or lose weight, and you don't have any mobility issues, then download the coach to 5k app and start running. It's by far the easiest, quickest and cheapest way to improve your cardiovascular fitness and it's great for clearing your head!
