I don't think it'll go under.

Jamie gets rental income from the flats above. I guess it just doesn't get enough revenue in the week.

I think it's a great proper local, but I'm just as responsible as I rarely get to go out during the week.

As long as it's still there for a pint of a weekend and during the six nations I'm still happy.


I'm thinking of doing a one night a week restaurant in Ireland in a couple of years, that way you can have a go at something you enjoy without letting the business take over your life, so perhaps it just suits their lifestyle.

Copy of email sent by hoopers:

Hi everybody! Hoopers will be reopening next Friday 2nd November at 6pm after taking a short break.


Our new opening hours will be Fridays from 6pm to 12 midnight, Saturdays from 12.30pm to midnight, and Sundays from 1pm to around 6.30pm (unless, like this coming week, we have a Comedy Night), when we will close at 11pm.




We have taken this step because it has not been proved viable to open all week. We understand that many people are having to make hard choices on when and where they socialise. We hope therefore that the local community will make an effort to support the venue, and the local entertainment that we bring at no cost apart from buying a drink.




So we are saying Use it or Lose it!!



We plan to have Live Music on most weekends, on one evening. Our first gig is Friday 9th November at 8pm, when we have Dan Maitland, local guitarist and past performer at Hoopers.

He will be playing some of his own compositions, as well as some well-known standards.


We would like suggestions for future gigs. Essentially they must have local support. So get your email in to us!

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
    • It's not really though, is it. It's practical.  At least we're allowed Christmas lights.
    • We are the only specialist floor insulation company on the market to focus on insulating from below – meaning almost zero mess, disruption or noise! Warmdwell is extremely proud to receive the highest reviews for our professionalism, reliability, commitment and the all-round ease of doing business with us: we draw our team from professional, creative, educated backgrounds to provide a friendly, problem-solving team with the deepest integrity. We take real care of your home and aim to leave it as spotless as possible. Please check our Google Reviews to speak for us: "We were really pleased with their quote, communication, and with having the job done perfectly with almost zero disruption. We think they left the space cleaner than when they arrived, and we are definitely already getting the effects of a warmer room" – Miriam & Abed, Sevenoaks, Oct 2025 "Laurence and his team were extremely polite & helpful, and the work was performed over just 2 days with minimal disruption. It was absolutely the most relaxed work I have ever had performed on the house!" – Alistair, Cambridge, July 2025 "Extremely friendly, polite and efficient" – Diane, Forest Hill, June 2025 We are always keen to chat through your floor insulation options and provide as much free advice as we can, as well as free quotes and surveys – so why not ask us today about what is possible to protect your floors from the cold ventilation air blowing underneath, keep your heat in and warm up your home? We use high-performance mineral wool slabs, never foam, for so many reasons: it is the ideal flexible material for the irregularities of old floors; is breathable, working with the way your floor has successfully performed for perhaps 100 years or more; can easily be removed to access pipes and cables; and is completely non-combustible. A local business based in Crystal Palace, we work extensively around Dulwich, Herne Hill, Forest Hill, Lewisham, Tooting, Balham and across the south East of England. Please ask us about your floor insulation options or for local project case studies today!
