I take back what I said about thoughtful process - agree with unlurked that lice is a big problem, and disappointed that there was no provision for anti-lice upholstery in the planning application.


Suspect they have also forgotten about a pedestrian barrier / cattle grid to ensure that offending patrons (e.g. old people and young children) emerging from the darkness of the cinema into the light of the street are prevented from causing unnecessary traffic disruptions.


I vote for Lord of the Flies.

Actually if you'd bothered to visit the presentation or view the photo of the proposed scheme posted above you'll see the pedestrian barriers which are already there will stay, probably for the exact reason you've stated.

Actually AF, I find it much easier to form opinions without the benefit of having seen the applications.

I leave it to more diligent citizens of the EDF to argue points of detail - I will stick to being outraged on principle.

It has started. . .

Years from now, as alien explorers pick through the wreckage of planet earth, someone will look back at the lost civilisation of Humans and rue the apparently innocuous trigger point for all the terrible horrors that were to follow... the Picturehouse Dulwich.

Dad, I dug another hole



Since James Barber was one of the prime movers in encouraging Picturehouse to come to ED, this is a pretty mean comment.


E-dealer, I suspect that you won't be voting Lib Dem this Spring (and indeed neither will I), but please try to keep politics out of this and be pleased that ED will probably be getting a much needed asset.

E-dealer, please tell me why James B would want to get the cinema project cancelled when, as I said, he is one of the people who encouraged Picturehouse to come to ED. Or is there some Machiavellian conspiracy afoot that is too difficult for us ordinary mortals to comprehend?


More to the point, why does at least one poster have to post negative messages on EDF when there is for once some potentially good news?

What evidence can you back this claim up with, as stated before they are clearly depicted on the artist impression of the completed development. For someone supposedly supportive of the project a statement such as yours is extremely negative and potentially harmful.

Tell 'im he's dreamin.


:-)

Someone mentioned the pedestrian barriers outside the cinema. I reference the existing barriers on the PUBLIC FOOTPATH are probably going to be removed.


The proposed fencing spelling out Dulwich Picturehouse is part of the proposed cinema. I;d prefer them to East Dulwich Picturehouse but either way they look a nice touch on the drawings exhibited on Saturday.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
