Or Uber to FH, train to EC and change (its an easy change with lift access to all platforms).

We've done this a few times in the past few months, full loaded with luggage. Easily done in 45 mins or even less if the stars align!

You can use oyster all way to Gatwick now. Tap out at airport. Cheap as chips


Might be cheaper than buying a ticket. Saves time as well.

I've had a look and it depends on what time you leave.


Forest Hill to Gatwick off-peak is ?6.20, but ?9.90 during the peaks.

East Dulwich to Gatwick off-peak is ?7.00 and ?10.40 during the peak.

East Croydon to Gatwick off-peak is ?3.20 and ?5.30 during the peak.


So during the peaks at least, it may be cheaper to use Oyster to touch in and out at East Croydon and don't touch out during the off-peak.

    • That explanation sounds highly unlikely!  Surely the "days of the week" plates must be a standard size. I know Royal Mail often appears incompetent, but it  couldn't be that stupid, surely. Was it 1 April?!  
    • Looking for a short length of electric (twin & earth)  lighting cable. Most likely there could be some in a skip near you??
    • Southwark's recycling guidance says to put shredded paper in the blue bin in a paper envelope or "small box". I've got far too much of it for that  (confidential stuff going back decades) - thanks to the EDF member who kindly gave me a shredder! It would be a "massive box". I have barely started  the shredding, and I've already got an extremely large bagful.   I've read online that you can put it into  large clear plastic bags in the bin for paper,  provided you  clearly label it "shredded paper" and it is obvious what it is. Does anybody know if Southwark would accept it like that? Alternatively, can anyone make use of it for animal bedding or packaging material or adding to  compost?
    • I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.
