We are having my son's christening in may and had planned on having the after do at the black cherry but they called yesterday saying they are closing down.. I am trying to find out if it is closing down entirely or being taken over but am looking for another venue in the meantime.. I've heard of the gg centre but not been in there myself.. Is it just a hall? I'm not keen on a hall so will skip it if it is.. Thanks x

Two halls with a partition wall that can be removed to make one big hall. Loads of decent seats and tables, which you can decorate and a smallish but serviceable kitchen and toilets!


You would have to do all the catering yourself. Friends of ours had a wedding blessing in the adjacent St John's church and then a do in the GG Centre, brought all their own wine and refreshments etc. It was lovely.


If you don't want to do it all yourself, then perhaps Locale on East Dulwich Road as an alternative venue or I saw a Christening party going upstairs in the ED Tavern a few weeks ago.


Good luck.

Thanks both. A friend of mine is having hers above the edt in a couple of weeks so I'm going to check that out but it seems v ???? same with locale but we are going to go and talk to them today as not sure my other half has the figures right.. Hoping to avoid the do it ourselves option so then we can relax and enjoy the day but I guess we will have to see what our options are.. Thanks again x

Hi Strawbs

We had our wedding reception in the goose green centre and it was lovely. We got caterers in who got the tables ready aswell. you're not allowed to play music on a stereo but they have a piano and little stage. Our daughter was Christened at the church too and we had tea and cake in the foyer of the centre afterwards. I think you might be able to rent that bit separately. http://www.stjohnseastdulwich.org/

I used Goose Green centre once for a kids birthday party - it's a great space for lots of kids!!! It is hall - but it's a nice hall and the kitchen is good. I think if there will be lots of kids there, having it at the hall will be very easy and as other's have suggested, get a nice caterers in.

      All go on Lordship Lane..

      By thfc2001 · Posted

      Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...

      Is the Choumert Road bus stop open yet following the ending of pavement works. Thanks

      The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose.

      @CPR Dave He needs to communicate collectively with all of the beneficiaries.  That is the whole point of my original post.  Electronic communications are the best way of doing this, as I am doing now on this forum.  Apart from the gold digger who will get a six figure sum the rest of us are on four figures, and that is going down by the day. I'm offended by any suggestion that we are not behaving well.  What on earth do you mean?
