Macutd has a very valid point. There are hardly any public loos. Whilst in no way condoning the perpetrator, It's extremely inconvenient for anyone working outdoors for long periods or anyone with a medical condition. We could certainly do with a loo in Lordship Lane, maybe our councillors could look into it.

Many decades ago, the people of ED requested a loo in Lordship Lane as various pubs were not sympathetic to those with weak bladders or had children in tow. The ideal site was identified - North Cross Road by the electricity sub station but it was not to be. Many cafes have toilets at the very back of the premises and staff will question non customers. Other premises have toilets down steep flights of stairs - not ideal if you have mobility problems or have young children.


I would find it difficult to go into a caf? and ask for the loo - and would feel obliged to purchase something on the way back from toilet. A caf? in Peckham has it's toilets locked up and you have to ask staff to give you the keys and this can take some time if they are busy. I can understand why they do this as by a railway station which does not have a loo.

Me too, Pugwash. The only place on LL I can think of where I'd feel comfortable going in just for that is the library (where the facilities are often in a horrible state and sometimes closed) or, further away, Sainsbury's DKH.


When the indoor market existed, where Brick House is now, you could walk in there but I can't think of anywhere else. In Peckham there's MacDonalds and Morrisons at least.

I don't want to speak for the Cherry Tree but a couple of times after getting off at ED station I've nipped in there for a "comfort break" and their attitude has always been "go ahead, no worries". I do drink there as well, but staff I've never seen before don't seem to have problem.

I don't think if anyone is caught short that you can't find a loo.

Who knows what was going on with this particular individual at this particular time.


It's not a nice find and that fact that they left it for someone to clean up is really vile. I would have been fuming.

I?ve recently heard that over-enthusiastic use of stimulants can bring on an urgent need to open the bomb bay. There?s also a rumour / maybe urban myth that Charlie is sometimes cut with laxatives. Perhaps the poopertrator had a chemically accelerated metabolism?

    • Hi everyone, I am a local tutor that has worked in an independent school for many years and have been responsible for the 4+ and 7+ assessments - so I know how they work from the inside! The 4+ assessments are especially competitive and the most unknown of all the school entrance assessments. I can help support your application by offering tutoring or a one off practise assessment to help identify what your child needs to work on.  I am happy to answer any questions you have about the assessments or anything specific about how your child will perform on the day. I am familiar with the expectations for Alleyn's, JAGs and St Dunstan's as well as the central London schools like Westminster and City.  I have helped many parents go through the process with their child - including my own son!  Send me a message to find out more!
    • Unfortunately, lovely as it is, it wouldn't be a suitable venue for the forum drinks. Not enough space for people to mingle and get to know each other,  and it would get in the way of other customers. Upstairs at the EDT has  comfy seating,   lots of space and is quiet on a Wednesday night, so we will stay there, if the managers let us! The next drinks aren't arranged yet, but will be in September. We had a break in August as so many people are away.
    • Rod (07739180197) has recently completed the restoration of our garden paths and the rebuilding of our damaged front step. He carefully reset the pathway stones, applied new grout, and sealed them, leaving the surfaces looking as good as new. We had assumed we would need to replace the front step entirely, as our neighbour did, but Rod’s skill and attention to detail have restored it beautifully. I cannot recommend Rod highly enough. He is reliable, punctual, and carries out his work with great care and professionalism. It is clear that he takes real pride in delivering high-quality results.
