R.I.P Karl.

I many times took my Mac computers to System Solutions just off Lordship lane, Blackwater street and if I was lucky, got a chance to sit or stand around and talk to Karl a while. Sometimes a long while. I bumped into him down lewisham way one evening late last year. Though a drag to have a breakdown, I would always look forward to the cheery welcome from he and his receptionist and though the bill would usually be a bit more than you hoped the repair was perfect and the explanation. So yesterday I was very happy to recommend Karl to my friend who lives so close by to push studios, the building Karls business was in. " Looks like its closed' I was told. Surprised I looked into it and just now found out why on an Atari forum.

karl died suddenly in January of this year. Its a real tummy punch to find this out. He was such a nice guy. For many it's the end of an era. my somewhat late condolences to Karls family co workers and friends. Boooooh.

I’m very sad to hear about Karl. I used his services a few times in the past, and he was very helpful. I first met him in the former Jack’s Cafe on Pellatt Road where he used to often have lunch. He was a very kind man. My sympathies to his friends and family.

When I left my house this morning I found the culprits litter still in the middle of the st. It looked like they had lit a whole box on fire in the middle of the road. My cat jumped out of her skin. I’ll try and report it on Southwark website same as I have had to with other illegal use this week. Any other ideas for what we can do with the photos? Maybe one of the Southwark councillors. It’s outrageous and dangerous behaviour. 
    • Had another great meal there…. those that haven’t tried it, give it a go.. have a special lunch menu as well so you can get a flavour of the food. 
    • If you "cotton on" and read the council announcement, it clearly states "The library will be closed from 17 November until late June or early July 2026."  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/2025/dulwich-library-closing-refurbishment
