Okay, we have a plan. 18 July our mystery, red flower group shall meet. I'm Heather...clearly as you can tell from my user name! I may just pick up a group of red flowers as a joke. How about we aim for a table in the atrium area (assuming fresh air is great and it might not be quite lovely enough for the back garden later at night?) I'll try to get there earlier and save a table. Errr..I'm short and have brown hair and a rather wide nose -- if I'm honest ;-) See you all soon. Hey, should be fun to make new local friends.
Hello Everyone. Just joined the forum and great to see some of you local people want to meet other local people! I want to start a similar thing for actors/actresses anyone creative and in the entertainment world...East dulwich seems to be heaving with creative people. If you want to find out about my idea email me and i will send you the word doc. I?m up for wednesday 18th at the Rye..how do we know its from the forum? i don?t want to go up to anyone randomly!!! Looking forward to meeting you all though and making new friends!

sounds like it will be a few people turning up - great.


i think heather suggested an area in the pub in one of her earlier posts, and a red flower to recognise her? :) does anyone want to reserve a table we can ask for at the bar? i am only coming back from my holidays the night before otherwise I'd make the call but maybe the red flower is enough of a giveaway.

city girl - it seems a reoccuring event as long as somebody gets round to finding a date and organising it. i am sure there will be one in august that you can join or even start.


it's my first one tonight after never beeing able to make any of the prior dates - should be there by 7.30pm, looking forward to it :)

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
