Hi! Looking forward to seeing/meeting you all tomorrow night! Tim Tippler has reserved the raised area about half way down the bar, so for anyone new, please come and find us there.


I'm a bit broken today, so will be sure to have a quiet one tonight in preparation for tomorrow!


See you from 8pm!

Hi Guys


Just moved to East Dulwich with my wife and we are keen on seeing what is going on in the area and making new friends, we are in our late 20's and would be interested to meet new people in the area! Can you let us know if there is a meet up planned in the future? Cheers Chet

Hi Chet! Welcome to ED! Not sure when the next one is, but do keep an eye on this thread for details - would be a pleasure to meet you both!


Great to see/meet peeps last Saturday - those extra glasses of wine meant I did NOT make my spin class in the morning!!! X

Hi everyone


I have volunteered to organise the next one and the suggested date is 14th June. Possibly at The Rye for a change, they do fab live music and if it's warm have an amazing garden. It's also the night England play Italy in the world cup (starts at 11pm) so those who want to watch it should be able to do so there.


I'll post more details nearer the time. Hope to see you all there!

    • 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
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
