Boris Johnson moving to Dulwich Village? What have we done to deserve this? ;-)


Recommended Posts

Stradella Rd is all Herne Hill.


Burbage Rd north of the railway bridge is Herne Hill.


Burbage Rd between the railway bridge and Turney Rd is Dulwich, but not Dulwich Village.


Burbage Rd between Turney Rd and Dulwich Village (the street) is Dulwich Village.

I stand corrected 🤣


But none of it is East Dulwich, so I agree with Malumbu that the thread should be in the lounge 🤣


And please God BJ comes nowhere near ED.

Is this not a major local interest story?


I do think it is ironic that Malumbu, someone who neither lives in Dulwich (nor Southwark for that matter) suggests something to be lounged on the basis it is not in East Dulwich. By that measure should Malumbu not be confined to the lounge permanently as well.....;-)

I heard it was Stradella Road... but that was third hand....

 

The local scuttlebutt is that it’s this house

Overlooked like crazy from behind. I doubt they’ll move in. It’s a snipers dream.

The current rumour in the press is Herne Hill. Close but no coconut.

 

Stradella Road runs between Dulwich Village and Herne Hill, so if it is correct that he is moving to that road, it would depend which end of the road it was.

 

I was told by a friend with family living there that it's definitely Stradella Road

That wasn’t an escort. That was someone he is helping with their computer

 

House on junction of Stradella and Burbage according to a builder who saw him arriving in black Range Rover with escort. Apparently.

Who cares, it's more gossiping by people who have nothing better to do about something that is unimportant and irrelevant. Probably the same crew who slagged off Poundland opening on Lordship Lane, get a life for dears sake.

well said...........and so what if he lives in dulwich are the people of dulwich better then others who don't live in dulwich ?? i would like to know as the dulwich people seem to know

I’d like to know if he paid cash for it as he seemingly did for his other recent real estate acquisition. If

 

that's a bit nosy (I’d like to know if he paid cash for it) so what if he did ? do you tell people what you pay for

He won't have paid a penny for it.

There'll be some billionaire Brexit backer / Tory donor / media mogul who has bought it as a "gift" for him.

 

Really don't understand why peeps are interested in that scummy sh*t bag liar?

 

Well it's useful to know where the paparazzi are going to be camped out!

(I’d like to know if he paid cash for it) so what if he did ?

 

Before he entered No.10, he was camped out at Carrie's flat in Camberwell because he'd lost everything in his latest divorce. In No.10, he shook the tree among donors in an opaque scheme to decorate his residence. If after No.10 he was plonking down cash to buy multimillion pound properties when his legitimate earnings could not have been the source of those funds, that would be very suspicious.

There are reports that he has received £5 million since leaving No 10 seven months ago

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
