Not sure if this is old news as I've been away for 3 weeks but Nisha informed me last night that she is having to leave her business and ED/London as it is no longer viable since Sainsbury's opened.


The store will be taken over by some Sri Lankan friends of hers on Thursday.


Very sad news as she was adamant she wouldn't be closing down or leaving the area.

I popped in there a few weeks ago for the first time in ages since I moved away from there and it was noticeably quieter at a time when I expected it to be busy


Shame - they were great shopkeepers and always went out of their way to help me if they didn't have something in stock. Best of luck to them

I know we are so, so sad - she is just the loveliest woman - so friendly and helpful. She always gave my daughter a bit of fruit whenever we went in and remembered her name. Do you know when she is actually going - we want to give her a card or something?

Oh this is sad news - its such a shame especially as I know how hard she has been trying to keep the business going. I always bypass Sainsburys Local and go to Nisha for fresh fruit and vegetables - it's so much better and you get such a friendly service. Really very sad to see her go. All the best Nisha to you and your family!


I will continue to support the local independent shops though so good luck to the new owners and I will be popping in soon!

When I spoke with her about 2/3 weeks ago she was remaining in the area as children were doing their A levels and she did not want to change schools.

She also asked if I knew anyone who could give her a few hours work i. e child minding, checking in on an older person.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
