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

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!

    • Or at least says vaguely_mundane, a transport enthusiast on a mission to visit and rate every single station on the Underground and Overland networks.

    • You may have seen an article in the paper today about Jewish leaders and notables calling on the UN and world leaders to sanction Israel [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/oct/22/jewish-notables-open-letter-un-sanction-israel], "... Prominent Jewish figures around the world are calling on the United Nations and world leaders to impose sanctions on Israel over what they describe as “unconscionable” actions amounting to genocide in Gaza. Over 450 signatories, including former Israeli officials, Oscar winners, authors and intellectuals have signed an open letter demanding accountability over Israel’s conduct in Gaza, the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem. The letter’s release comes as EU leaders meet in Brussels on Thursday amid reports they plan to shelve proposals for sanctions over human rights violations. “We have not forgotten that so many of the laws, charters, and conventions established to safeguard and protect all human life were created in response to the Holocaust,” the signatories write. “Those safeguards have been relentlessly violated by Israel.” ..."   There is also a petition we can sign to support them in their call for justice: Direct link: https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/stand_with_jews_demand_action_loc_cp1/?tUwBCsb&v=502713833&cl=22394973010&_checksum=7dc99acb5dd4fc5a43a24e21772f51005ea239753e9ae3033d9f79ffd6119559 "For the first time since the ceasefire, a powerful coalition of Jewish voices have come together, urging world leaders to keep the pressure up until real accountability and freedom are achieved.Their call can shift the political mood and give leaders courage to act decisively -- Amplify their voices and stand with them: The demands of Global Jewish Voices: To respect and abide by the decisions of the International Court of Justice, noting their application also in the West Bank and East Jerusalem; to apply arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court; and to resist efforts to unduly pressure and influence and prevent the workings of both courts. To refuse any complicity in continued crimes and violations of international law against Palestinians by Israel, including by ending the provision of arms and other relevant goods and services; to use relevant leverage, including targeted sanctions on governmental bodies and individuals responsible for violations of international law, and suspension of relations with commercial entities contributing to these violations. To ensure that humanitarian assistance reaches all Palestinians in Gaza at the scale that is commensurate to their vital need, that the blockade is lifted and materials for reconstruction enter, and that there is a full Israeli military withdrawal. To refute false accusations of antisemitism that abusively deploy our collective history to tarnish those with whom we stand together in the pursuit of peace and justice. If you are of Jewish heritage you can also sign here, and we will add the number of your voices to support the Jewish call for justice. Posted: 22 October 2025"
