We had a bloke turn up today saying he was from the Telegraph and that they were doing an article on houses turning front gardens into driveways as the council was wanting to stop this practice. He wanted to take a picture from the upstairs bedroom window of our front. My wife declined the request. Sounds dodgy (even if he did have a camera with him) as he could just as easily take a picture from ground level. Anyone else had someone saying they are from the Telegraph.
Well East Dulwich has featured in the Telegraph twice in the last few months. Clearly there's a Telegraph writer moved to the area and mining her own backyard so this could be genuine. Sounds like the sort of story the Telegraph would go for in one of their daft supplements

Funny how we say Kosher. I wonder if Rowan is right if in 10 years time we'll be saying 'halal' Telegraph journo?


Back on thread you'd expect s/he to carry an NUJ card. If they didn't flash that first or when asked I'd be a bit suspicious.


10 years ago ED wouldn't feature in the Telegraph unless there was a feature on Sauf London villains in the colour supplement.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition 
    • 'Tom Lehrer, acclaimed musical satirist of cold war era, dies aged 97' https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/jul/28/tom-lehrer-dies-aged-97-dead-musical-satirist  
    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
