Well said mamaFG! I agree. It's only a shop anyway, not designer, not chichi and not particularly overpriced like many of the existing shops and cafes around here.....

At least Sugar isnt a barbers shop with loads of people sitting or standing outside all day and night making the roundabout area seem untidy. I think the premises would have been better suited as a small HMV outlet or something along the music lines. At least the unit is now filled and looks attractive, all we need now is some decent christmas lights along the lane and maybe we will get a rush of outsiders coming to ED to do xmas shopping!

Who knows, and frankly who cares? I couldnt figure it out myself when I glanced in on the opening week, all I know is it looks nice. Probably wont last five minutes due to high rents and lack of customers but lets make the most of having a reasonably attractive shop front by the roundabout for now. It's a luxury that end of the lane has not had since forever!

can I help clarify some confusion?


sugar - 100[something] grove vale - individual ladies dress and accessory shop - used to be a barbers - nearest roundabout.


2 lordship lane - ex newsagents, now empty with weird political ramblings in window - owned by dentist from east dulwich practice, planning app to convert to dental surgery.


4 lordship lane - alan's flowers [for orientation]


6 lordship lane - corner site - mirrored windows - used to be NHS now its owned by parkihill who have two slightly different retail applications with planning. rumours of baby clothes shop [any confirmation?]


think that's the SP

Frankly I can't keep up. Moved to ED over 3 years ago and it's unrecognisable from the quaint place i fell in love with. However, that said, it's appealing to the lazy sod in me as i can get everything in ED now and never have to venture into town ever again if I don't want! just wish there were't so many baby buggies on the pavements and screaming kids in Le Chandelier of a morning / lunchtime(though the benefit of a spiral staircase is evident ;-) )x

I don't think most mums and dads wake up and think 'I know, in order to make out just how rich and successful I am and to fill an aching void, I shall dress baby in a trendy/retro romper suit'. They just think it's nice, it's cute, it's something to make them smile. I agree that it's daft to spend a lot of money, though, and there is a limit. Nero

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
