A lovely thread! It's inspired me to remember - and value - everything I love about ED, and why I've lived here for over 20 years! And in no particular order, here's a few: The fact that I can walk to five parks from where I live; the library and staff on Barry Road; spring and autumn in Dulwich Park; the fact that my garden overlooks lots of other gardens; the people who run the Greetings Shop who, true to their shop name, always find the time to greet you and have a chat; the friendly stallholders on North Cross Road market; breakfast at the Blue Mountain and baguettes at the French place on LL (name escapes me); the greengrocers on North Cross Road; the Cheeseblock and all that's in it; SMBS for inevitably getting me out of tight spots hours before a dinner party (with a special word for the lovely Amit but I won't divulge it here); Tam at Village Way Hairdressersfor a great service (he always seems to know when a head massage would come in handy...); the buzz around LL; the fact that ED has a mixed community which seems to gel well and where I feel at home!

Kudos on the threads so far - the fact that such a topic on this wonderful forum exists says it all about ED really.


Apart from those already listed, I love the fact that friends/family who come to visit are blown away by the place. Makes me proud to live here.


Also, Clarence in the Bishop always brings a smile to my face. And I have to second the earlier point about the friendly staff there.

Dry Cleaners near the station - Mustafa is the friendliest man on earth

Mirash Tandoori for takeaways

Pizzas at the Gowlett, New Year at the Gowlett

Franklins for great food

The friendly newsagent (with the hearing aid) on the corner of Melbourne Grove nr the station

John Alan flowers

Mon Petit Chou for friendly service

Paine & Hunter opticians


The list goes on really....

    • Hi, The seller has already been restricted from making posts on the forum (including in the For Sale board) straight after you initially reported this. They do however still have access to their private messages so that they can contact you. If its clear that they have no intention of resolving then they will be permanently banned.   I would recommend making contact with the company as you will require evidence that the item is stolen if you plan to report this to the police. If so there is useful information on the Citizen's Advice website: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/consumer/somethings-gone-wrong-with-a-purchase/if-you-think-youve-bought-stolen-goods
    • That's like the cartoon of the person who goes to IKEA for tea lights, comes out laden with stuff and says "Damn, I forgot the tea lights"  😂 
    • Have you tried contacting the company the laptop belongs to? I expect they would be interested.....
    • Last week I bought a Galaxy Chromebook Go on this forum, the seller was not home when I went to pick it up, I texted him and he found an excuse apologized and said he could deliver,  I accepted and later that evening he delivered the item in the original box ... all seemed ok until my son (it was supposed to be a present for him) opened it and tried to log in his google account, to our surprise it stated that the laptop was property of a company and could not be used without authorization. We tried to contact the seller, and he initially provided some excuses, but after his initial responses, he stopped replying to our messages. I informed EDForum but no action has been taken as the seller is still present on the forum... I am very disappointed
