They are always closed & don't have much in there. It's not the same as a proper larger garden centre you can walk round with a shop & stuff.

They do indeed. Took my 70s Quad amp down there for a repair and fixed it at a reasonable cost. Chap who did it was very helpful.

I think it needs a Pop Up Cake Sale tomorrow outside Roullier White (125 Lordship Lane) to raise money for St Johns!


10 til 3 and lots and lots of yummy cakes for sale - and while you are there why not purchase a little something special to serve them on!


Everyone who spends ?10.00 or more will automatically be entered into our prize draw to win 2 tickets to the East Dulwich Supper Club


Do come along

I think LL needs a big cafe for children with room for the 4x4 buggies and space for children to play on the floor, make a mess and be loud. The dish and the spoon in nunhead is a small version of the thing we need. More space, more playroom (less mess at home!)


And for the evenings can we bring back inside 72? LL is a shadow of its former self without it.

I know, how about putting them in the multi-storey carpark suggested by mark88?

Problem solved! :0)

yes I said that too. A proper big one with a shop. I really do miss popping in there to have a wonder round :(

What this place definitely does not need is any more shops attracting trendy 20/30 something yummy yuppy wannabe pretentious types who failed to get a job good enough to pay for a cosy mid-terrace period property in Clapham. So no more cosy yummy mummy cafes with room for a bugaboo or 6. Lets get in some decent shops for everyone to use. My vote goes to pret a manger.

    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
