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!

Info can be found here:

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!

      Inpost "Parcel was refused" at Barry's - anyone else?

      By fishboy · Posted

      A quick update - my InPost parcels are being accepted sporadically at Barry's, but only one at a time and every few days, after many refusals - one was refused SEVEN times over about ten days - and several phone calls. As a comparison, I had a message from Yodel that a parcel that was going to Barry's is being delivered to another nearby store, which is interesting...

      GALA 2026

      The "Community Benefits" are documented on P12-16 of the Consultation Document. Basically unsubstantiated estimates that it benefits local businesses, claims that it provides "opportunities" for local food traders, businesses & people (the term "opportunities" being meaningless - I have opportunities to win the lottery) without any details, facts or figures, and discounted tickets for local residents (which unsurprisingly seldom sell out). The only direct financial benefit to the Park is a £1000 "Biodiversity Fund" and an undisclosed amount for an "Environmental Impact Fee" - looking at how it was spent this year (flower beds in the playground & Sexby garden) I suspect it would be a similarly small figure. The actual site hire fee - claimed as "commercially sensitive" and therefore undisclosed - is spent on: • Funding the council’s free events programme and Cultural Celebrations Fund • Subsidised fees for community events in the borough • Off-setting the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of the free community events programme  Again, no details given, just vague concepts - can anyone name any of these free & subsidised community events? Or what the "Cultural Celebrations Fund" is or does? It doesn't really sound like any of it is worth  the disturbance, restrictions, noise, litter, environmental damage and negative impact on wildlife in our Park.

      We also recommend Aaron.  Very reliable, reasonably priced and did a fantastic job on our hallway and bedroom ceiling.  A pleasure to work with and left the house very tidy at the end of the job.  Thank you
