Last year Adori (I think it was her) and some others had a secular carol service outside their house on Uplands Road. It was really nice. However, I love the churchy ones, despite not being a church-goer myself. Does anyone know of any lovely Church carol services round here before Christmas eve?

No - absolutely not - just one of many myths about the Licensing Act 2003 - see here (near the bottom of the first page)


PM me on this if you are really concerned.


Burgabe said:

"The DCMS helpfully claims: "...a group of carol singers (players) outside a shop could be construed as incidental to the activity of people going about shopping and therefore exempt from the requirement for a licence." That might, on the face of it, fit the bill. Until you consider that any construing will be happening in a court, and will happen long after any Plod with an eye for the overtime will have banged you up for criminal singing. So, it would seem best to get a licence."


The above is utterly scatalogical.


Frankly, if you believe that either the council (they are responsible for enforcement of the Act) or the local Police Safer Neighbourhood Team will start arresting you on suspicion of singing a carol in a public place you're probably a Daily Mail reader who believes everything that foul organ excretes. Live a little - go and sing!

ALD stands for adrenoleukodystrophy which is a life threatening genetic disorder, normally affecting males .


Log on to www.aldlife.org.uk to find out more.


It is an incredibly worthwhile charity and as I said before has a direct relevance to families living in East Dulwich so it would be an ideal charity for members of the forum to support.


You may see collection boxes in some shops in East Dulwich and there is an ALD charity shop in Penge , opposite Sainsburys.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By malumbu · Posted

      @first mate  just Google the Green's policies and AI should summarise.  For sustainable transport this includes more initiatives to get people out of their cars as you would expect.  I've always been broadly in favour of their environmental policies, although feel they should go further on culture change. Some of their national policies are bonkers and/or unrealistic - as are most of Reform's.  Historically fringe parties could come up with nonsense, as they will never govern.  Of course whilst I don't expect that Polanski will ever be PM that other bloke could be.  Worrying times, particularly if the Greens split the centre/left vote.  It would be better if One Nation Tories could split the centre vote (and drag some of those on the right), but they don;t have a lot of influence in the current party. One particularly bonkers policy was one element of the Greens who wanted us out of Europe, not because of Europe being pro market/capitalism but because we needed a recession, deindustrialise, so we would all go back to the middle ages.  Or something along those lines.  I lost some friends because of this. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03y5trr#:~:text="Protectionism against developing countries%2C savage austerity in,the case for either remain or leave. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/08/eu-reform-green-brexit

      I've planted a meadow out front, it needs a lot of work.  It's lovely until August and then grotty until the next spring as once the flowers have died back it doesn't have a lot going for it.  Clover is the last one to flower.  It will get admiring looks when in bloom. I laugh quite loud when I pass one neighbour with plastic grass, not only is it dead to nature it is not even laid well,   I should be crying.

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By TheRoses · Posted

      Andy did a number of jobs for me and was very reasonably priced. He's very helpful, arrives on time, pays attention to detail and a nice man. I'll be using him again and recommending him to my friends.
