Hello I'm new here and I think that everyone shortening the Dulwich part to Dul is really unfair because it makes this lively and vibrant suburban village sound more like some terrible provincial town like Maidstone or Reading.


I've not had a lot of time to mooch about yet but the options on Lordship Lane seem fantastic for Christmas shopping. My family and friends are going to get some interesting and individual gifts this year - whether they like it or not!


One thing that bothered me, and I've seen it in many other places I've lived, is that the Lordship Lane info website says that the St Christophers hospice charity seems to have two shops within yards of eachother. Surely they'd be better to get rid of one the buildings and giving the money they've saved to the hospice itself. Charity is important and I do my bit but this annoys me a bit.


But if this is the only thing wrong with East Dul then that's fine with me!

Glad you're enjoying it so far, sadly there seem to have been a spate of burglaries, transport issues, bottles of pee and the loss of a much loved salad bar that are scaring away the kittens, but hopefully the people won't follow!


Probably best to ask one of the volunteers in the charity shop, i dunno lol

Howdy ya'll, I'm a yank from 'cross the pond, planning on visiting your fair (or should I say faire!)towne of London. I was wondering if there any recommendations of sights to see? I have heard many things about the House of Concrete that me and my partner Alan are very enthusastic about seeing. Any good pubbes that show American sports like basketball, college football and soccer? Thank you

    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's.
