The official Southwark Display is in Greenland Dock this Year and on November 5th. Greenland dock is virtually opposite the cinema and Bowling Alley at Surrey Quays.


Lambeth fireworks are in Brockwell Park on Friday.


Blackheath fireworks on Saturday.


If you go yo Multimap.com there is a place to put your postcode in to see the fireworks in your area. It seems to have the big displays only. Not sure what day the Burbage road fireworks are on.

me too - have a sneaking suspicion everyone in Lambeth will be doing the same though!!

Southwark Firework display will no longer be at Greenland Dock...


See todays Southwark News, page 2.


"After a massive outcry about the potential damage the display could have caused to the growing colony of rare birds that live in the (Greenland) Dock, Monday nights bonfire party has been moved to Southwark Park."

    • Jafar lives up to his 5/5 reviews.  A great job well well done. Dismantled the boiler replaced the part and everything put back together and working.  I can only agree with all his excellent reviews.  
    • I know I shouldn't bite, but .... Would you like to give some  specific examples of exactly why you consider this orange faced  narcissist with the apparent  mental capacity of a gnat (that's probably being unfair to gnats) and a clearly rapidly declining memory  the "best US president of the last 50 years"?
    • Southwark Council has issued a response  on changes to planning in London, urging a rethink -    “We have significant concerns over plans to allow developers to build fewer affordable homes in London, and to cut developer contributions to local communities.   “Under current proposals, the fast-track threshold for planning applications in London would be cut from 35% affordable housing to 20%.   “The proposals would also cut in half the levy that developers currently pay when they build, which helps pay for much-need local community improvements.   “Today we have submitted our responses to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and Greater London Authority consultations and urged a rethink.”   Read the council’s response in full https://southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/planning/planning-policy-and-guidance/responses
    • I have a very large (at least four seater), very old (bought when I moved in circa 1990 🙄) sofa which I am very fond of. It was extraordinarily expensive (from Heals)  at the time. It has loose covers and large  feather filled cushions (on the seating part). It is completely sagging at one end (the end I usually sit) and I think the springs have "gone". Some time back I had a quote to repair it, and I can't remember what it was, but it was a lot, so I decided to put up with the sagging as it's not too bad if the cushion is plumped up.  Every so often I look at other sofas, eg corner sofas,  but I can't quite bring myself to say goodbye to this one. To get to the point. There are various DIY solutions online for sagging sofas eg putting a sheet of hardboard or something specifically made for this purpose beneath the cushions.  However there seems to be mixed views on how successful this is in terms of comfort. Has anybody tried this, or other remedies? Did it/they work? I know I could just try it and see, but it seemed to be a good idea to ask first!
