Quite likely, especially as I have no idea what you're talking about :))


ETA: KK, there were two daughters, the poor things had to stay down there in the half-light during half term, looking extremely bored and occasionally playing their recorders .....


ETA: Oh DUH I just looked up disco biscuits. What a sheltered upbringing I have had :))

fewer curry houses - i don't know how many stay open, half of them are dead most nights. i ate in swadesh recently - 8pm on a saturday night. you'd expect there to be more people eating there than just me and the wife. shame because the food is nice but eating in an empty restaurant doesn't make for the most fun night out.


an italian restaurant/pizza place serving traditional thin crust pizzas cooked in a wood burning brick oven would make a killing.


likewise a japanese or vietnamese.


also agree a small indi cinema would go down well.


sadly, i expect the rents dictate that new arrivals will be more of the likes of cafe nero and oliver bonus.


the two chains i'd like to see depart are co-op and iceland. never use either of them. not sure who uses iceland. it's about as out of place as some of the joke suggestions on this thread for pound shops, strip bars and maccy ds.

Iceland was here long before a lot of the newer shops, yes it's obviously on the way out but people do use it - there are many things you can buy there that are the same as sold in sainsburys but cheaper. Many people who are on lower incomes & pensioners shop there, not everyone in East Dulwich is flush & Lordship Lane hasn't always been full of chi chi shops!

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
