We have a petition say no to caffe nero. They opened the cafe without planning permission and are now trying to get people to make the council allow them to carry on. Since they opened have they not been trading illegally they have been earning a lot of money which is illegal. they should have got permission first. they have come into this area with no regard for the people they ride rufshod over the council who we elected not them. if they are allowed to carry on trading they are saying that we do not need a planning department and other developers will follow the lead. we need to make a stand this is our community and borough. please go to the say-no-to-caffe- nero and lets make them know whos area this is.
I seriously hope you have your facts right. My objection is that East Dulwich is great because it has very few high street chains in it. The best way to keep it maintained as such is not to use them. I only go to small concerns and avoid larger chain stores. eg Sommerfields, Caffe Nero, Foxtons and that dreary clothing place opposite Foxtons are all good examples.

    • I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.
    • I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)
    • Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.
    • I would be interested to learn if Gail's hike their prices on Christmas day. I don't go to Gail's (as I prefer Christophers on HM Lane) but if anyone does go and detects a bit of price gouging, please let us all know.
