Not enjoying heat & pregnancy! Wish I was working in air conditioning or had a paddling pool i could sit in all day...

I'm also starting to swell Strawbs - first sign is having to take off wedding rings, then it hits my ankles and feet - toes look like cocktail sausages. yuk!

Hi all,


Just a quick update on our meeting on 17th July. We plan to meet at 1pm near the kids play area in Dulwich Park with everyone bringing something so we can all share a picnic. We should all be recognisable with our tummy's! :)


Irene has sent out an email to all those who sent her email address, if you havent received it then let us know.


My number is 07714721783 if anyone gets lost. Look forward to meeting you all!

Hi

Just wondered if I could be added to the list? I'm having my second baby in November (due 25th)

Would be lovely to meet some local people, as we're moving to Dulwich next month hopefully (although we live quite close at the moment, too)

Thanks

Lucy ([email protected])

Whenever I've been to dulwich park cafe its been a hectic nightmare. Maybe it would be a lot quieter on a rainy day? Anyone got any experience? In terms of somewhere suitable for toddlers on a rainy day I only know week day venues. Anyone know a Sunday alternative?

i cant make it but the gardens cafe (the old electrical shop) have a playroom at the back with tables and a sofa in it. you might be able to reserve it in advance? there is a thread on here about it being not nice now but i go there every few weeks with my sister and her two kids and we like it. good cakes (choose from what looks nice on the table) and good selection of drinks, service can be a bit slow.


otherwise i was going to suggest the back of Green and blue though not sure its best for kids to run around in - lots of tables in the way!!

Hi everyone.. I haven't been on that much as my morning (all bloody day) sickness has been coming back off and in lately.. Not sure I can make Sunday for this reason ie need to be close to a loo but I'm off today if anyone fancies a coffee?


I agree re the electrical cafe, good space and central, I went there wed for lunch..

Probably best to call Megan (Megano is the user id) - her number is on one of the earlier posts. Have a lovely afternoon all!

Hello - I also agree it was lovely - we should start planning something more regularly! However, i have to apologise - have just this minute realised I left without paying!!! I'm Lucy and was the first to leave when my husband came to give me a lift home. It completely slipped my mind to pay - whoever paid for my cup of tea, i thank you very very much and owe you big time! not great for first impressions - i'm very embarrassed!

Anyway, i look forward to seeing you all again, and particularly looking forward to maternity leave. I stop work sometime at the beginning of October - not planned quite yet, so am free weekends until then x

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
