Hi

Just looking for fellow Americans living in East Dulwich. Not that I prefer Americans, just that I am involved in the political process (US presidential primary) and hoping to meet up with others also interested in the movement to change

American politics.

There's a website where US citizens living abroad can register to vote and also there are lots of meetings going on to support the various candidates (I am going to one this Wednesday evening). Drop me a note if you're interested.

Shosh :)

Democrats Abroad are hosting a primary and town meeting tommorrow - I went last time around and it was great fun - and good to be part of the democratic process. Check out there website for more details of venue and place - you'll need to bring your American passport with you to gain entrance.

I'll be going to the town hall meeting and voting in primary tonight, 5 Feb. Here is the website link in case anyone couldn't find the relevant info: http://www.democratsabroad.org/node/4397


Will try to make the Obama supporters meeting on Gloucester Rd tomorrow, 6 Feb, too.


I've lived outside of the US for most of my adult life (and, as an adult, have never been in the States during a presidential election year). This will be my first time voting. Embarassing. But I can sleep at night knowing that my home state has gone democrat in the past two G.W. Bush wins. Thanks for the post. I noticed it just in time... otherwise I'd have missed today's primary vote.

Welcome Colonials!


For the land of the free you dont half seem to make a meal of elections - this Presidential thing seems to be taking as long as one of your "Football" games - do the adverts make it longer than it otherwise would be?


Get yourselves a Monarch - no farting about with expensive campaigns, just a cheap way of ensuring that the dynasty stays at the top of the shop - which is what you chaps do really - Bush clan, Kennedy clan, Clinton clan (?).


When are ou going to get a President that has the balls to stand up and say "Lets stop shooting each other - we dont actually need to own guns anymore" ?

    • Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend. 
    • We are expecting a baby in a few months, and have heard about the epic waiting lists for nurseries in the area... We have been to look around, and are considering, LEYF Camberwell, N Family Club Camberwell and Purple Jay Herne Hill. Would love to hear any feedback from experienced parents!
    • Most of the shops in LL have too small a footprint. That's why we have so few chains. That won't change quickly. 
    • Errr could it be because of the noise pollution coming from it perhaps? You may not be able to hear it where you live but anyone on the Dulwich Village side of Lordship Lane all the way to beyond Brockwell Park is being disturbed by it - the sound wash from it is huge and that's a lot of people. As I said before we know people who live nearer to Brockwell Park to us and they say it is unbearable.   To be fair the Emirates moved to a piece of wasteland between railway tracks so it actually in a less densely populated area now and the council actually goes out of their way to try to mitigate the impact on local residents and yes, other than the concerts, you could hear a pin drop on matchdays! 😉
