Nigello, with the proposal for a "supermarket local" type store at the bottom of the Barry Parade development, with a loading bay outside for delivery Lorry's , mixed with a bus stop opposite the click house, plus additional cars for the Kings Court development topped off by drivers visiting the store it just doesn't bode well for road safety at that junction.

I don't have a major issue with there being more homes/flats there than the current situation, but the original block is looking a bit tired already - how does it work just 'dumping' another two stories on top of that building?? I'm sure it's possible, but it doesn't seem like the blueprint for a great development.


BTW - what's happening about the Barry Parade development? IT looks like planning permission was granted a while back?

The congestion that would cause while construction of the building and facilities it would be horrendous.. I live on Barry road and sometimes the traffic is terrible especially speeding drivers.. my house already has cracks and subsidence due to the amount of buses and lorries going up and down the road. Imagine if that goes ahead all the big lorries going up and down the road then sitting on Barry road near clock house unloading supplies and then if knocking building down first all the machinery and tipper trucks waiting to be filled with rubble.. it would be an absolute nightmare couple that if and when they decide to do the other side of the road it's going to be a nightmare especially for those that live so close to that part ..

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      There's probably a bigger discussion on why we celebrate Christmas (pagan/religious festival) and why everything has to shut down.  I've enjoyed Xmas days in Spain, Mexico and France where some businesses and restaurants are open, and in a number of non-Christrian countries.  In both sets of occasions it has been festive, but not over the top and the Spanish seem to have a more relaxed attitude in a country where the church is probably more important than the UK.  A Lounge conversation.  I'll no doubt be popping into the Forest Hill Road supermarket on Xmas day for things we have forgotten, with many others in a similar situation who grew up in the Christian faith (I've long since been an atheist).

      I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?

      To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
