Just putting some information out there which some of you may find useful.


I recently enquired about malaria tablets as I will soon be needing them for my vacation.


I understand malloff is the most expensive on the market which many pharmacies are selling.


I enquired at my gp about the best way to go about getting the tablets.


I require mefloquine for my vacation, for which I can get a private prescription for from my surgery.


I enquired in 4 different pharmacies how much it would cost for 14 mefloquine.


Sainsburys quoted me ?38.15

The pharmacy attached to the lister in Peckham, Peckham Road, quoted me ?39.15

Morrisons in Peckham quoted me ?30.43

Boots Peckham quoted me in excess of ?50 (I can't remember exactly how much they said!)


These were all a lot cheaper than malloff which many pharmacies sell over the counter.



This is just a FYI post to let you know if you didn't already....


Hope it will be useful for you.

      Well if not housing with a bit of social attached, perhaps a local supermarket or a restaurant/ chain food place. Can’t think of anything else  that would for the bill unless a private dentist or even something like Tessa Jewel to serve that section. Pity that skate park might go - guys and gals put so  much work into it but have to  move with times. Community centre?  Anyone have any other ideas? Nice to explore…..

      I have noticed this year that those plants of mine that 'berry' have berry-ed up excessively this year, particularly the mahonia. Old wives tales suggest this would suggest a harsh winter is in the offing - it will be interesting to see if this saying bears fruit (see what I've done there?).

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      That totally passed  me by- agree with  you totally - think  she must be going thru a bad patch - as Jazzer has mentioned somewhere else, has totally changed her tune but saying that, we all have bad  days and need to get things off our chest. Moving on….never been a fan of Croydon myself - use to have to relocate clients there years  - like everywhere some nice parts and some  not so nice. Not a place  I would go to for a mooch or shopping myself.

      Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.
