With all this talk of protecting communities, I think it's high time the selfless folk that run this forum should be given the credit they deserve.


As a web designer, I'm well-aware that such forums are more a labour of love rather than a profit-making business and so consider East Dulwich terribly lucky to have such as resource to turn to when we're holed-up during the snow or in lock-down during the riots.


I'm sure that if more towns were encouraged to set an online forums for locals to discuss local matters, there would be a greater social awareness of topics affecting one's neighbourhood.


Well done, Admin.

Well said electroblankets. My one gripe would be that some people do seem to use it as a means of nitpicking at any opportunity and being a teensy bit small minded (at the risk of probably being attacked for saying that..), but otherwise it's a great resource and great for the community.


thanks Admin :-)

    • When I did a Diploma in Community Studies at Birkbeck College many many moons ago, community was defined a group with common/similar beliefs , people living within a defined geographical area,.
    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4] 
    • Hello! I’m looking to collect some pallets and MDF boards from anyone in the area who has some and no longer needs them?   It would also be a huge bonus if anyone has a PA sound system I could rent/borrow/buy off them.   Thank you in advance!
    • That was the best "pound shop", a great selection of products, sadly it and the chain went to the wall as they say.
