Ditto, how annoying. Tues mornings would clash with the baby clinic for me and anyone else at DMC, so my vote would be to find another venue for mon mornings... Has anyone been to the new cafe where jacks used to be on pellatt rd?

Hi everyone - I live right near the old jacks cafe on Pellatt Road and although it is a lovely new cafe (Captured in the Rye) it's really not suitable for a babies meet as it is tiny tiny - no room for a pushchair.


Its not very glamourous but I have recently discovered the Bread of Life cafe located in the church on Barry road near dulwich Library (opp the Plough pub car park).


Its big, welcomes babies etc and has inexpensive food and cakes...plenty of room for buggies.


Might be an idea...? Now Freddie is 3 weeks old I hope to make it along again soon

Bread of Life would be fine with me. Or if everyone def wants to stick to the gardens, what about weds morning?


Louise, hope all's well with you and Freddie - Caroline and I were wondering last week when you might be venturing out to a Monday meet up!

Amber/Caroline - starting to feel a bit more 'with it' now Freddie is 3 weeks old (!) - unfortunately Mondays are not great for the next few weeks as I have my best pal here next Monday and my mum the Monday after


Next Tuesday or Wednesday I am free though and Annabel is at nursery which makes it a bit easier - if anyone is up for a meet up?

Dish and Spoon would also be fine with me. I won't be at Lucas tomorrow as I can't do lunchtimes - it's sacrosanct nap time in my house where we all go to sleep for an hour or two!


Would be up for a one-off alternative meet up this week eg Gardens on Weds morning if anyone else fancies it.... no worries if not though.

I keep meaning to try and join you on one of the meetups, my little boy is now 7 weeks old but with a toddler daughter as well has proved difficult.


Wanted to add that the dish and spoon is nt open on a monday either so would be no good, second bread of life cafe not the best of food but cheap and cheerful. And for those wanting to bring toddlers has a few toys and plenty of space.


Can't think of any other cafes with the space other than the park cafes.

Hello, shall we stick with Monday's, and try the Bread of Life? I for one have given up being cool a loooong time ago (if I ever was!)! It looks like some other meet UPS are happening naturally so if we all keep posting then hopefully everyone can find one that suits! On that note, I know I suggested the park on Friday's but that has ended up being my NCT meet up (the other lady's babies weren't born when I suggested that date) so sorry I haven't made that yet. I do think I can finally make it this Friday so if anyone is up for that, please do post!

Take care and hope all are well,

Kate x

How annoying about The Gardens! Bread of Life cafe on a Monday as an alternative venue sounds good to me. Can't make tomorrow as my toddler is at Diddi Dance (on your recommendation, Amber - we went last week and William LOVED it!) and Fridays don't work for me either so really looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday and catching up.


Louise - hope all is going well with Freddie -looking forward to meeting him in due course!

Caroline - we do Diddi Dance too now but on a Friday - at the Christ Church on Barry Road (hence why I have also discovered the Bread of Life)...Annabel really likes it too!


Amber - I bumped into Otis (and his new nanny?) a few weeks ago coming out of the 10am Diddi dance class? We do the 11am on Fridays now.


I hope to make it tomorrow too - as long as I have an ok-ish night!

Caroline, shame you're not doing the Friday diddidance class - would be nice to intro Otis and William!


Louise, yes basically after I last saw you, i found out that Otis and Annabel already know each other from tippee toes, and the birthday party at dish and spoon you mentioned was one that Otis had already been invited to - I just didn't put two and two together!


Anyway, hope to see you both tomorrow / mon!

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By Eats Dulwich · Posted

      I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights.

      Do you feel unsafe in London?

      By NewWave · Posted

      I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.

      The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
