Myself and a couple of local mums are talking about setting up an 'outdoor playgroup' once a month at the wooden circle in Warwick Gardens. Would anyone be interested in coming? Or indeed in helping to organise things? We were thinking of taking lots of picnic blankets, a box of toys, some flasks of tea, a picnic, some bunting and some babies & toddlers! I've go the go-ahead from the council. We plan to hold the first gathering on Thursday April 14th from 2pm. The idea is to kick things off with a teddy bears picnic, a few songs and a bear-themed story! All welcome!
Thanks for your PM's great to hear there is some interest. Warwick Gardens is at the Peckham end of Bellenden Road - Past Review book shop gates on the left. It's where the wingding is held. It's free and just for fun. Yes i will post nearer the time - just wanted to give a heads up to guage interest.

Hi Andy - lovely message thanks! i tried to contact you all by Facebook to make sure we weren't stepping on Antibes toes (or circle!) it does lend itself to a teddy bears picnic so well! Thanks for the endorsement! Will let you know how it goes.

Hi circle people - I've been up in the loft in search of picnic type blankets. Alas I only found a couple. Could people keep their eyes out at jumble / sales / parents garages etc - it would be nice to have enough to fill the circle. Ta x

Hi folks I've set up a Facebook group for anyone interested in coming along to our new monthly community outdoor playgroup starting on Thursday 14th April in Warwick Gardens. Local mums and babies and toddlers welcome for a teddy bears picnic with songs and a story. I'll pop the details on here too for any non 'bookers. X

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
