Hi guys, I know this has been posted before but Herne Hill Velodrome is hosting the inaugural South London Grand Prix tonight with world class riders. There are many riders racing today and tomorrow who will be at the World Championships representing their country in a couple of weeks. The added bit is tonight, at 6pm, the Velodrome will be presenting Jim Love, one of the few 1948 Olympian cyclists who rode at HHV, with a special momento. Jim and special guests will be unveiling an Olympic plaque to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Velodrome being used for the London Olympics.

There is food, drink and a very special atmosphere. Also youth riding at 5pm. Hopefully it will be a fun couple of evenings with racing from 3pm. Ticket info on the link.

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

  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...

  Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me. What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….

  Just be careful to know exactly what they cover and the limits. i use Many Pets and Medivet, as I think one of the vets is exceptionally good. Some of the NHV are, but I’ve had a couple I’ve not liked at all. I need consistency and to feel that they actually care more about the animals than the money.
