What is ED doing for the Diamond Jubilee?

[Pugwash]

Is anything planned for this time? carnival, street parties?

[ratty]

I am gonna knock one out over a picture of Princess Anne.

[Sue]

Let's hope not.

[*Bob*]

I hear woodrot has something special planned.

Personally, I'll be spending the day on Lordship Lane - disguised as Prince Edward and mooning startled diners in Green and Blue.

[woodrot]

her Maj is coming down to ED to open the new Waitrose in her jubilee year I hear. God bless her.

[bonniebird]

I hope so! Hopefully another street party, last one was fun :))

Dubbing the National Anthem for a start.

Nothing but we're getting an extra bank holiday which suits me fine

[Pugwash]

For those who think they may want an 'event' over that weekend - please see attached AGM notice from the East Dulwich Society.

[DJKillaQueen]

We are doing a street party and fun day where I live.....any excuse for a party is fine by me :)

reggie,

Superb track and great artwork - Peter Blake (it's that good)?

I wonder if the street parties will be as abysmal as last year's for the Royal Wedding?

Cheers.

And yes he was going for that Peter Blake tinge with Caine and Connery in mind.

Has anybody been involved in planning one of these street parties ?

How much red tape ?

[the-e-dealer]

Stuff the Jubilee!

[KidKruger]

Thanks, really useful, that.

Anyway, anyone know the deal with getting permission ?

Southwark guidance here -

Edited because the CPR street party plans changed after I posted.

[civilservant]

yup, as Sue says, plans are indeed afoot for a Crystal Palace Road street party - but probably not on the day of the the Jubilee

Some reasons why

- the day of the Jubilee day is very early in the year, so high risk of cold weather/rain (like last year's ultra-sodden Big Lunch)

- the Jubilee is being marked by extra Bank holidays, so high risk of low attendance as lots of people will be going away (like at last year's sparsely attended Big Lunch)

- and last but not least, the republican spirit seems to burn bright in the breasts of the Crystal Palace Road Street Party Organizing Committee (or CPRSPOC to those in the know)

Anyway, we are waiting to hear from Southwark if they'll let us close the road for free later in the year.

KK, PM me if you need info about getting permission.

[civilservant]

Very sorry to say that CPRSPOC will not be organising a Crystal Palace Road Street Party this year, for a multitude of reasons.

However, if anyone else is up for organising one, PM me and I'll talk you through what you need to do.

Getting out of here!

Whats the situation if someone hasn't got permission and closes their Road?

[grumpyoldman]
