You don't have to join, although I think there is a discount if you do. Little Saff and I went one morning a few weeks ago. It was ?5.


In addition to some softplay they had painting and crafty type stuff. There is also a coffee bar, which smelled delicious. Unfortunately I was so busy running around after Little Saff trying to prevent her from painting herself blue, that I didn't get to sample the coffee. They play music and I think they might have some other activities later in the day, depending on the theme of the week. It was a nautical theme with sea shanties when we went. There is also a small outdoor space in which they had a sandpit.


We only stayed about an hour b/c Little Saff (19 months) can only do short stretches of excitement before she needs some quiet time. The space probably best suits babies that aren't yet highly mobile, or otherwise slightly older toddlers and children, perhaps 2-7years. xx

The 484 goes there. You can't park right outside and will have to walk 5 mins or so. My 3 yr old daughter loves going there, to hang out, mess about, make believe, paint, jump around, build stuff and generally go with the flow- its not organised activities as such at any particular time but follows the mood of the children and parents can join in. We like the cafe too and usually have lunch there and stay a few hours.

I have enjoyed taking my daugther here - I would have loved a place like this when she was younger. It is also helpful that most of the things to do are made / created / so there are no "fights" over toys etc!


- if you buy things on amazon, and go through their website, (click on Amazon link from TDLP webpage) they earn some revenue as well


Although teh cafe is small, they do a good coffee; some nice snacks available.


(You can just turn up - they do have themed events for Christmas; Halloween and those have to be booked)

It think TDLP received special funding -- innovation in business grant or some such? I heard that their location might not be permanent. I guess if the business is successful, they would look for a better space. Maybe worth asking next time you drop by?


On Saturday mornings TDLP also has a stand at the Brockley Market (green produce, baked goods, seasonals etc in the Lewisham College carpark, intersection of Tressillian and Lewisham Way). It's ?2.50 for an art & craft session usu with story telling at the TDLP stand. Take the 484 bus from Nunhead and alight at Tressillian. It's a 3 min walk up the road. Also plenty of onsite parking.

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
