Hello. My elderly father grew up on Zenoria Street, Dulwich and as a child had a best friend called Roy Croft. He's keen to try and find him and would love to hear how he is doing or hear from his family. Roy would be in his early 80s now. I know very little apart from that but hoping someone in the area may know of the family or may have elderly relatives who can help? Literally any clues or ideas of where we can extend the search would be amazing. Many thanks, Tori

Hi - just managed to dig out some more information! I think it was 1940 onwards (not sure until when). Roy had a younger brother, Brian, and I think their father's name was Leslie, his mother was possibly Lilian??


Apparently the Croft family might have been lived on Avondale Rise in Peckham, with my father being on parallel Danby Street before they both moved to other addresses. Leslie and later Roy worked for the London Press Exchange [an advertising agency] and were both Account Executives.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
