Property developer bought the building with the flats and shop premises, to build luxury/ yet more unaffordable flats... Mrs Robinson set to re-open once building works done, but with a smaller shop cz one half of the shop premises will be converted into s flat.
I'm really sorry to see Mrs Robinson being squeezed like this - it is one of my favourite shops in ED. I miss its clothes shop across the road too. It started off too expensive for me but for the last couple of years its prices seemed to come down and I bought a lot from there - though not enough to keep it afloat, obviously...

Fingers crossed it reopens, I love Mrs Robinson and it?s nice to have something other than coffee or pricey restaurants. Luxury flats, luxury flats, luxury flats ? that?s all we seem to hear in Southeast London. Don?t these money-grabbing developers realise that without a varied, interesting High Street, the appeal of ED and price premium of these luxury flats is no longer sustainable?

    • Still a large patch of grit clearly visible in the middle of the pool yesterday (Tuesday).  On the plus side - the water was a lot warmer!
    • Thanks for the response and to some who PM’d me. I’m now included on the Patient Participation Group (meeting next in Dec) so I’m going to feed back the comments here, good and bad. Update today to PPG members is that, as some of you have said, there is a new contact in place with GP practices with effect from 1 Oct. That appears to be the driver for some of the changes we’ve seen at The Gardens. From the responses here, though, patients might be getting an inconsistent message from the Surgery; I was definitely told that appointments must be made through the app, and only the app. It was only when I expressed concern that a strictly online service would not be suitable for all, that I was told by the receptionist that she could complete the request for me (or others if needed). Even then, then patients would need to await a text from the Practice. Perhaps we are just teething problems with the new provision…Happy to bring any and all comments to the PPG meeting (although I’m aware that the most digitally-excluded people probably aren’t on EDF!) Thanks folks.
