If you use the Lido and in particular the gym or spa there, or take classes ... or are just curious about the facility ... some of us users have started a Facebook forum to better be able to get to know each other as well as feed back (both positives and negatives) to BLU (the Brockwell Lido Users Group) and to Fusion, who run the place. These are basically community pages.


It's always hard launching something like this and getting attention, so check it out and give it a "like"! If you're on Facebook, that is. You don't need to be on Facebook to look at the stuff but if you are, you're welcome to add your comments!

Use to love the Brockwell Lido in the pool every 6am until they 'removed' Paul as the manager. Caf? use to display 'local & Community' activities, then that was ripped down and replaced by only Lido activities........ so don't use caf? either!


Toad uses other pools!


Any connections between Chains & Fusion? Cash = Flash!, Toad knows far too many people who just get on with it without paying ????? to the chain.


No bitterness though when Paul was removed......... please keep this thread going Brockwell Lido, lots more to say!

It is a long lease which Lambeth created with Fusion. I liked Paul Maier too ... Jeremy as well. We had lots of pow wows. He helped start the Modern Movement too. And agreed his replacement was very hard work and did some outrageous stuff. But she was yanked after protest (nearly a sit-in in December) and am encouraged by her replacement so far. He has allowed us to display handbills for the facebook around the dryside of the place and put some up himself. This is one of the reasons for the facebook thing. if you want to be read, go on it and add your comments. both the manager and BLU seem to be reading the wall. I'm not sure they will come to the ED forum. I appreciate what you say about the bulletin board - we should be on there too. We are trying to get on it now. Meeting some resistance but one of the facebook administrators met with BLU heads this week and brought it up again.

Well Ant, the word's Italian meaning beach. So if it came from the original then it should be lee-do.


However, like the French word promen-ah-de which is often pronounced promen-ay-de, it became so corrupted after allowing the working classes to both read and travel that it can be pronounced whichever way you choose.


You could even have some fun trying to persuade people to put the stress on the second syllable: l'DOH

    • Nadia did a great job tidying up my very very overgrown yard. (See the before and after photos). I live in New Zealand and my tenants said a neighbour has been complaining about the out of control ivy. Nadia was easy to contact so over WhatsApp, managed to liaise between me and my tenants. Her quote was reasonable for the amount of work that needed doing, and the end result is great! She sent photos throughout so I could track progress. Would highly recommend her to others. 
    • My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky. 
    • Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks. 
    • Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.
