Richard Ayoade lives on my road in SE15 with his young family. Reckon he moved in around 9/12 months ago. Happy to have a funny warm-hearted and genuinely talented celebrity living locally, rather than some over-hyped reality TV wannabe. Perhaps SE15 really is now officially the coolest place to live in London ..?
Only just discovered this particular thread. Richard Ayoade lives on my road. I've seen Jenny Eclair a couple of times. However, my best spot is Lorraine Chase (of Campari and Emmerdale fame). She was at the next till to me in Sainsbury's a few months back. I knew it was her because she was wearing a green t-shirt with her name and a 0891 (or similar) telephone number printed on the back. I thought it was a strange thing to wear. It was only later that I remembered she was in 'I'm a Celebrity get me out of here' and this was her t-shirt from the show! Times hard eh, Lorraine?

"CALIM" - was that an intentional Grauniad-style typo!?

    • 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?
    • Just be careful to know exactly what they cover and the limits. i use Many Pets and Medivet, as I think one of the vets is exceptionally good. Some of the NHV are, but I’ve had a couple I’ve not liked at all.  I need consistency and to feel that they actually care more about the animals than the money.
