not strictly family, though kind of related - post baby (2 and a half years post baby!) I really want to start going to the gym, I'm in awful shape. Not an outdoor runner at all, so cross trainer etc for me. My nearest gym is the Peckham Pulse, which I'm not keen on going to in the evening.


Does anyone have any recommendations? And what's a reasonable price these days? For example, JAGS's fee of ?40 a month sounds alright, compared to what I recall paying at Virgin Active way back in the day. As far as I can tell there's no chains round here, but I'm not sure what's out there.


I know I'm easily put off doing any exercise so I don't mind paying a bit extra to get decent changing rooms, for example.


Thanks Family Roomers

Been going to Dulwich leisure centre and very happy with it. Good facilities, lots of machines, etc. I've heard that it can get quite busy in the evenings though. I only go during the day so no issue for me.


I used to go to esph on lordship lane and much prefer the leisure centre.


I just do pay as you go as I only use it once a week so I'm not sure what the monthly fees are. I think their website lists it out.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
