It ended up as a 1-1 draw, so Dulwich slip to 6th and out of the play-off places for the first time since September....


Nevertheless, it's still been a great year considering it was the first season back in the Premier Division. The crowd of 1,388 shows the potential that the club has to keep pushing on.


There will be a player awards evening at the ground on Saturday 10th May (7.00pm) to say thanks to the players - free entry and food. Details to follow.

Thanks for sharing those pics. The match was against Walthamstow Avenue in 1986/7. That was the only season we wore pink shorts and Avenue finished bottom and we never played them again as they amalgamated with Leytonstone-Ilford, eventually renaming themselves Redbridge Forest before amalgamating with Dagenham, to form the club now playing in the Football League. Avenue are wearing their away kit. (Their traditional colours were sky & navy hoops.) The Hamlet players in the first picture are Stokley Sawyers (no.10) and Paul Williams, who played one League match for Chelsea as a youngster. From memory it was Sawyers' debut for the club and they both scored an a game Hamlet won 5-2.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
