Following on from how brilliant Melbourne Grove was for Halloween this year, are there plans for any streets to go the extra mile with Christmas lights? It would genuinely be a highlight for me and my baby - don't recommend having a baby in lockdown and don't recommend having a baby during a pandemic! A nice buggy walk with some festive lights to coo at would cheer us both right up. And nice and Covid safe too ☺️

Hi

The stores nn Lordship lane and Northcross Rd will be lighting up the trees along the lane and Rd, with Xmas lights. We are organising a social distance xmas event, in place of the cancelled Xmas cracker. It will be on the 12th of December. Each store have organised an in store event for the ED community. We will post further details of the event on here nearer the time.

Take care

Tempted to turn up on Christmas eve with my housemates, nice and drunk, with lots of cans of lager and portable speakers- blast out some drum & bass remixes of Christmas tunes.

Funny, that's just the sort of thing Steven Taylor would say.

Enjoy a festive tipple or brunch to support local businesses while your kids have fun at the Yeeha! Grotto. Book your little ones to come to our ?The Snowman & The Snowdog? grotto with fluffy snow, Xmas disco, and festive kids films, so you can finish your Christmas shopping along our SE22 ?Mile of Smiles? - a local small business treasure hunt on Grove Vale, Melbourne Grove, Northcross Road and Lordship Lane.

Children and adults get goodie bags with gifts from your local independent retailers too!

Enjoy

If memory serves, Shrieker wasn't cloning him/herself at exactly the same time. But then my memory is rubbish so I may be wrong :))



Edited to add: I love the sound of the Christmas streets, thanks to all involved!


(and edited again to remove a typo .....)

    • If you have recently sold your flat in East Dulwich what was the difference between valuation and eventual selling price? I’m finding that agent valuations vary so widely that it’s hard to get any idea of current actual property values.  Are any agents particularly known for overvaluing and by what sort of percentage?
    • It’s 3 AM - Anyone know when this horrendous noise is going to stop?! We’re on the Sainsbury’s Local end of Landells and am quite frankly sympathising with all of you nearer Peckham Rye. My ears are ringing! How is this ok?!  Edit: According to the website it should have finished by 22:30. What is going on and how is this acceptable (and not more people are complaining about the crippling sound levels we’re being subjected to?) - shocking.. 
    • https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY We live near and it’s absolute hell. The noise of the people coming and going from Peckham is the worse. They are so loud and obnoxious. This is my 5th year of this nonsense. People vomiting in my front garden, urinating in my neighbour’s gardens, throwing food into my garden. Screaming waking up my children while waiting for their Ubers. The people that organise this festival are 100% obnoxious. They told us there would be security along our road (there wasn’t). I asked them to put up my family in a hotel but they wouldn’t. It’s actually a human rights infraction for all of us this badly affected. Over the years I have spent so much money trying to be away this weekend but none of us should have to. The data also shows that most people coming are not local residents - so of 3000 tickets sold, hardly any to residents; it’s easy to argue that it disadvantages us residents way more than any conceivable benefit. My elderly neighbours are besides themselves. Every year the setup and striking of the festival blocks off the park during half term, plus the antisocial behaviour and loud noises mean actual children that live here are prevented from using the park and playgrounds. The police initially rejected the license last year… then suddenly changed their mind with no apparent reason… seems legit. Also the GALA team lie and make false statements in their advertising about consulting with us (they don’t they just tell us what is going to happen then are extremely obstinate and rude). My neighbour runs Friends of Peckham Rye and has been totally distressed by all the damage done to recent planting initiatives funded by the local community. GALA do not repair this, GALA pay off Southwark and then Southwark refuse to confirm what they are paid, or how much (if anything) is spent to repair the park.   This needs to be stopped once and for all!!   Petition asking Southwark to stop providing the license to GALA once and for all.    I mean I am sure they will listen to us just like they did about the LTNs…   https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY
