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

    • If you have recently sold your flat in East Dulwich what was the difference between valuation and eventual selling price? I’m finding that agent valuations vary so widely that it’s hard to get any idea of current actual property values.  Are any agents particularly known for overvaluing and by what sort of percentage?
    • It’s 3 AM - Anyone know when this horrendous noise is going to stop?! We’re on the Sainsbury’s Local end of Landells and am quite frankly sympathising with all of you nearer Peckham Rye. My ears are ringing! How is this ok?!  Edit: According to the website it should have finished by 22:30. What is going on and how is this acceptable (and not more people are complaining about the crippling sound levels we’re being subjected to?) - shocking.. 
    • https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY We live near and it’s absolute hell. The noise of the people coming and going from Peckham is the worse. They are so loud and obnoxious. This is my 5th year of this nonsense. People vomiting in my front garden, urinating in my neighbour’s gardens, throwing food into my garden. Screaming waking up my children while waiting for their Ubers. The people that organise this festival are 100% obnoxious. They told us there would be security along our road (there wasn’t). I asked them to put up my family in a hotel but they wouldn’t. It’s actually a human rights infraction for all of us this badly affected. Over the years I have spent so much money trying to be away this weekend but none of us should have to. The data also shows that most people coming are not local residents - so of 3000 tickets sold, hardly any to residents; it’s easy to argue that it disadvantages us residents way more than any conceivable benefit. My elderly neighbours are besides themselves. Every year the setup and striking of the festival blocks off the park during half term, plus the antisocial behaviour and loud noises mean actual children that live here are prevented from using the park and playgrounds. The police initially rejected the license last year… then suddenly changed their mind with no apparent reason… seems legit. Also the GALA team lie and make false statements in their advertising about consulting with us (they don’t they just tell us what is going to happen then are extremely obstinate and rude). My neighbour runs Friends of Peckham Rye and has been totally distressed by all the damage done to recent planting initiatives funded by the local community. GALA do not repair this, GALA pay off Southwark and then Southwark refuse to confirm what they are paid, or how much (if anything) is spent to repair the park.   This needs to be stopped once and for all!!   Petition asking Southwark to stop providing the license to GALA once and for all.    I mean I am sure they will listen to us just like they did about the LTNs…   https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY
