I recently put a note on here about getting wood vale residents together somehow. I have had lovely messages from some, and we are starting to meet, but I do wonder whether there is more merit in a residents group now. We could perhaps start talking to the horniman about improving security on the nature trail, and working together on improved fencing etc. The police will also visit to advise on specific security issues.


And if any opportunistic burgulars are reading this for ideas, this road and the trail is now being closely watched by the police. You are more likely to get caught now than ever. so do us a favour, and don't steal our children's toys and bikes.

Thanks so much for these posts - that was our tandem.


We're going to claim it tomorrow and hope it's not totally trashed. Such a mindless act - I assume riding a tandem was too complex for these idiots to work out so they had to dump it.


I think we need to lobby the Horniman to increase security when the nature trail is closed - better burglar proof fencing and maybe some thick prickly planting could help deter opportunistic thieves.

Thank you for your messages. The police are coming around and yes, they have found the two bikes, dumped on the nature trail. I think the bikes were too heavy to carry and with flat tyres, impossible to ride away, so thank you Tom for posting your message. I will collect them tomorrow. The East Dulwich Forum is brilliant.....


Yes, Sara, let me know when a meeting is arranged to discuss security on the nature trail. Its never been an issue before, but I think its worth alerting the police that this is a vulnerable area.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
