Recently he has tended to get back on the forum in a flurry - answer immediate questions and add value where he can to other threads and then go quiet again. I believe he has a pretty full life - handling the forum (which does not form any part of his constituency 'duties') may well take a lower priority than his full-time work, his active councillor duties and his role as a family man. We are lucky that he and Councillor Hamvas (and Robin whilst she was on the Council and after) are so prepared to engage with the forum.

It's great to have an active and committed set of councillors. It is less than great that people rely on them to report stuff that could easily be done themselves via the website or phoneline. I know that sometimes it is correct to ask a councillor to get involved, but for some instances of cracked pavements/flytipping etc. it is really the responsibility of the person who witnesses it.

Condolences to Cllr. J B.

Ah, James. I'm sorry. It has to happen. But for that book to be forever closed -- it's tough, and I wish you luck in making your way through to the other side. My father still visits, in dreams, thirty years after his death. He's not done with me yet.

      Dulwich leisure centre? Zumba or Pilates there? I go to Zumba at forest Hill Pools... Pay as you go membership and its very inclusive all ages shapes and sizes. Ditto I find the leisure centre the same..I'm mid 60's by the way. I prefer gyms to schools..the rooms they do the classes in are custom built.

      Well, this is sad news.  Hopefully it won't go down the same path as The Palmerston when it changed hands.  That is from great to dismal, literally overnight.

      And no queues at 1130 yesterday. Maybe everyone's had enough and switched to the Yodel and Evri app.

      Hi there guys, I hope you're well.  I've recently done a term of Dance Yourself Fit, which began with a class at the Harris Girls Academy on the Nunhead side of the Rye, then transferred to the Charter School for Girls up by the old ED hospital. It's been so good and all the women attending have loved it too, but due to exams being on next term the classes are being discontinued in East Dulwich, much to our disappointment. They're moving them to Streatham, but that is not convenient for me and many of the others. This is a link to their site in case anyone is interested though: https://www.danceyourselffit.com I'm now looking for a replacement class that's not too expensive, keeps me moving energetically for an hour and is local and hopefully less than a tenner per lesson (this was about £72 for 8 classes I think?). Does anyone know of anything? I'm also looking for low-cost pilates classes to join too, if anyone has any recommendations for those too? Very best,  Eleanor  Also, just to add, what's been so nice is that it HASN'T been in a gym with lots of lively young lithe gazelle like creatures hopping about. It's been extremely inclusive for women of all sizes and shapes and really nice that it's been in schools not gyms. Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed!
