Are you planning to leave before or after you develop the Victorian house into luxury flats? Many people would consider such development equally detrimental to ED's 'vibe'. Have you sought Fred R's views, for example?

They probably serve lukewarm coffee due to their American-style hyper sensitivity to people sueing them if they scald themselves on a properly hot drink.


I have no idea how much truth there is to the rumour that Starbucks may be eyeing up Lordship Lane.


But I agree with those who say - vote with your purse - make sure you buy from independent shops/businesses if you value their continued presence in the area. And should there be some kind of campaign to keep out larger chains - then back it.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
