I live on Gowlett road and for the past few days, someone within earshot of my room has been playing lots of 1930s-50s jazz: Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, and right now, some soft cocktail bar sax 'n' piano. If this is you, I just want to say thank you and please keep it up! I've genuinely enjoyed it and it's far less intrusive than the constant lawn mower/leafblower/commercial dance music sounds I get from some of the other neighbors (no offence to those into those things, but every day? Really?). It makes me feel like I'm a character in a black and white film (I dress in vintage clothes and love pre-code cinema, so this is right up my ally). Also, maybe it's time for someone to set up a vintage jazz event locally once we're all allowed to roam freely again?

Nice one. Whilst I berate others for the amount of whinging, why you need a petrol mower/strimmer in this area defeats me. And the soft late 70s early 80s stuff coming from the house above is pretty dire, every so often there is one you want to dance to.


Hopefully others have some positive stories like this.

      Fireworks

      It was indeed in the vicinity of DKH. I live on the ED estate and I could tell it must be close by because of the noise. When I left my house this morning I found the culprits litter still in the middle of the st. It looked like they had lit a whole box on fire in the middle of the road. My cat jumped out of her skin. I’ll try and report it on Southwark website same as I have had to with other illegal use this week. Any other ideas for what we can do with the photos? Maybe one of the Southwark councillors. It’s outrageous and dangerous behaviour.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      If you "cotton on" and read the council announcement, it clearly states "The library will be closed from 17 November until late June or early July 2026."  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/2025/dulwich-library-closing-refurbishment

      Goose Green Clinic, healing and energy work with Lisa

      By Emily1011 · Posted

      I’ve been seeing Lisa at goose green clinic for energy work for a year now.  Lisa is kind, caring and hugely supportive. She is wonderfully masterful and trained as a reiki master for 20 plus years. Alongside other energy work.  My time spent with her is like therapy. An emotional safe space for deep conversations and reflection followed by relaxing and energising healing work.  each experience I’ve had has been different, the end result remains the same. Feel lighter, almost euphoric and almost float home. Definitely an experience not to be missed.  https://www.goosegreenclinic.net/therapies/healing-energy-work/
