No wonder they were so bad-tempered when I went in there a couple of weeks ago!


But actually, despite my horrendous experience of being frog-marched out during a lampshades contretemps, I do sympathise. I have fond memories of meeting friends in there for many a lovely brunch when they used to serve food. Maybe they shouldn't have given it up?

I am sorry to have doubted you. We just walked down our road to see what was going on. The writing is on the "window" - there is a clothes sale tomorrow and a number of other dates and then that will be it. The sign thanks people for 15 years of service and happy memories.


When I moved to Northcross Road there was just Blue Mountain and Grace and Favour - this is a very sad day for local business.


However, there was chink of light under the blinds at Blue Mountain and I am delighted to say that evidence of a refurbishment is very present - lots of ladders, tools etc etc. Can't wait to see the new place - lots of luck to Mel and the team.

Never worked as a cafe because the small space Rose had was clogged with mums and babies not eating. That is why she closed the food part. It is a lovely shop, but she doesn't live in London anymore so having it must be a hassle.

Fi, who went on to work at the original Jack's, used to be a chef/cook there. The food was sublime.

Alot of independent businesses (and I am not being negative here)in East Dulwich close and re-open under new names. For example, The Black Cherry on Lordship Lane closed and re-opened as The Draft.Grace & Favour is in a prime spot on North Cross Road. Yes, it sad to see the store close and Rose is a lovely woman and I wish her the best. I'd give it three weeks if that until Grace & Favour is re-opened under a new name or business.

      Homes for people who have been granted asylum is one thing. Homes for asylum seekers is something else.

      The Mansion Tax

      Central and local government are going to have to do multiple things at once (as opposed to the James Barber approach of "there are other things that need to be done by other people elsewhere, so we shouldn't approve building new housing here"). £200m across multiple councils across the whole of England and Wales is not going to crowd out opportunities to build more social housing and to approve other housing built at private expense.

      DVIS Wraparound Care

      By Kesc · Posted

      Question for those with children at DVIS: how do you manage the limited number of places at the after-school wraparound care? In reality - does everyone who wants a place get one because so many don't need it? What alternative wraparound care are people using? Thanks!
