I have been thinking about a similar idea for sometime as I have noticed that a lot of people in the area have fruit trees that they are unable to harvest properly. Each year I see so many apples rot on the floor and it seems like such a terrible waste... Especially when you think about the amount of cider that could be made (and perry in the case of pears).


I would love to start some sort of ED co-op cider where everyone donates their apples to a central press and then dependant on how much cider we make, we could split it amongst all do donatees. We might have to get some sort of disclaimer though as scrumpee can be notoriously dangerous!

It has been dormant for a while but has lots of potential along the lines we've been discussing on this thread. Perhaps it will find its time later this year as the apple "harvest" approaches.

Hi Sue

I hope the music went well, Marilyn my outgoing SNUB partner was busy doing this. I was at work, although I enjoyed the end of the fair. I will try and organise with my incoming gardening partner for SNUB something similar. Not sure when though. My incoming Bikes project partner is keeping me busy with funding :)-D .As always watch this space, for up and coming SNUB events.

Hi all, wow wasn't expecting such a good response! Having already killed half of what I planted (novice gardener.. who stupidly went on holiday without making arrangements for watering of the garden..) I'm not sure now how much extra I will have but will stay in the loop.

    • Nasty piece of work. Targets locations with a healthy independent presence and farmers’ markets; typical vampire capitalism. Great supporter of a Brexit too. All good reasons to go elsewhere, preferably small independent., 
    • Hi, oglander , Congratulations on your soon-to-arrive little lion - how exciting! It's always lovely to hear someone taking the adoption route (shelters are having a major crisis at the moment!). I've been in business for 15 years & can say with certainty that most cat owners in Dulwich have catflaps so, not only are they easy to have installed, but you shouldn't find yourself short of helping hands on these local forums. A catflap is a brilliant way to keep your little lion safely in overnight as well as generally keeping track of their comings & goings. I'd be happy to walk you through the set up once you've chosen your model (SureFlap & PetSafe are two popular brands). I'm sure the rescue has already advised, but just in case they haven't, it'll be very important to keep your newly adopted cat housebound for the first 2 weeks to familiarise themselves with their new home. Once they've scent-mapped the house, you can gradually begin letting them out to explore & scent-map the garden. Exciting times! x
    • Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks 
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967
