;-) Thanks for that "enlightening" response!


I'll presume no-one has a bloody clue then. It's just the other side of Peckham Rye station. Thought it might do cheap beer. And other manly things. Like darts. Or pipe smoking.


Never mind. I'll just have to pop along and see what the deal is.

Hopefully.

Pretty much, yes. And darts. And pipes.

I did have a look on t'interweb for you, though I'm sure you had a look too, and there's pretty much zip. I even had to read between the lines to work out it's (probably) some sort of phoenix Nights type affair.


Give em a ring is your best bet, I did try but no answer.

Hi, I'm replying to this thread because it's currently the top Google search result for "Peckham Liberal Club". I joined earlier this year, I can confirm that it is still open, it costs ?20 a year to join, new and prospective members are always welcome to come down for a visit, as above there are several snooker and pool tables, a 1950s (I think) style ballroom, a darts room and very cheap booze (?2.75 for a pint of mild, around three quid for most lagers). Just ring the buzzer after 7ish Tues-Sun and ask to have a look around. Like many working mens/social clubs it's in danger of being turned into flats so do come down for a pint while you still can! If enough people get involved, maybe it will survive...


The Peckham Pandemonium music night is now based there so that could be a good excuse to come have a look (next event December 19)- it's a great space and I reckon there's a lot of potential for other types of events. Some fresh blood could really improve the club's fortunes and make it a great asset for Peckhamites of all generations.


EDIT: turns out we now have a website! http://www.peckhamliberalclub.org/

      I can't see it will ever be finally resolved, unfortunately. Although the local problems were made much worse due to the move of the delivery office to Peckham, Royal Mail has had issues ever since it was privatised. Whenever the local MP gets involved, things get a bit better temporarily, then they just deteriorate again. I hope I'm wrong, but there are similar postal delivery issues all over the country. I think there are currently discussions ongoing to change the delivery requirements which Royal Mail is supposed to adhere to for first and second class post. Silly question, but are you actually expecting letters? I haven't had any post for ages either, but I'm not expecting any! Much stuff these days is done by email or on apps. The East Dulwich delivery office is in Peckham, not West Dulwich?

      Mediation with property solicitor

      By Dulwichlass · Posted

      Hi, over the last few years, I have had a problems with my joint freeholder. For the last 15 years there has been roof leaks and we had some repairs done around 2016 but I got another leak a few years ago. Instead of ensuring the roof is watertight, the joint freeholder is trying to force me to pay for non-essential work in hallway (tiling, new door and repainting) which will come to approximately £3K. We keep going around in circles and I want to suggest a mediator again (ideally with a property solicitor). Key reason is joint freeholder is also solicitor, so needs to be someone who has expertise of leases. I have proposed a managing agent for maintenance for the building or a declaration of trust but they wont agree, so we are unable to move forward. We are just two flats in one house and trust has completely broken down. I think they are trying to make life so difficult that I sell, so they can do an extension. I love my flat but I am not in a situation where I can move. Can anyone suggest a mediator that can help us find some common ground? Any advice welcome and DM if you prefer.

      This problem has been going on since before Covid due to the closure of the Dulwich sorting office. The local MP Ellie Reeves is aware and has written to the Post Office. They give the same generic responses about 'temporary' staffing issues. Would encourage people to email Ellie Reeves. It's about time this was finally resolved!

      Sorry to hear you are having issues. Fwiw, we received a regular letter this week. Maybe it's worth asking at the Dulwich delivery office (it's in West Dulwich, though. Their phone number is 03457740740) to see if there are aware of any issues in your particular area?  I've seen cases in the past were the a particular postie was sick and they didn't cover for them, they just let everything accumulate for a couple of days until the person was back.
