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.

East Dulwich is holding street parties:

Sunday 3 June - Nutfield Road, Ulverscroft Road

Monday 4 June - Henslowe Road, Goodrich Road, Derwent Grove, Archdale Road.

Tuesday 5 June - Worlingham Road & Ryedale


For fuller details see attached.


For those that don't live on one of these streets you might want to to join in with the Diamond Jubilee Picnic in Dulwich PArk Tuesday 5 June.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
