Picture framers!

Hello All,

It's Simon from the Arterie picture framers. I'm back operating from 83 Pellatt Road. Some will know me from my 34 years at North Cross Road. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones .

At 377 Lordship Lane? It's unusual - every eighteen months or so there will be some work done, and then nothing happens. I passed by last week and the door was open - it seems to be decorated in the style of a western saloon, there were bottles of booze on the shelves, and tradies doing something again.

Taylor’s Greengrocers to open at 43 Dulwich Village

Popular Maltby Street greengrocer arrives in the New Year. Good news for the village which doesn't have much choice for groceries!

That's good news. I saw that DVillage is also being renovated. Now the pavement in front is wider and flatter with the recent works, they'll have a nice setup indoors and outdoors.

We went there late November/early December. Very pricy, we had the lunch special which price wise was not too bad, very small glass of coffee £6 50. Hubby paid bill and said he should have challenged it as one small pot of Jasmine tea was £7 for the 2 of us.

I'm sorry to see another chain opening up in the form of Holland and Barratt a couple of doors up from SMBS.  That will be another unfair pressure on SMBS .  I really hope people continue to support SMBS and its relative shop The Cheese Block under huge pressure with the arrival of Mons and Bora.  These are two of the oldest surviving (30 years plus?) green grocers, deli and unusual ingredient food shops in Lordship Lane and made it an interesting high street long before the chains and  newbies moved in.  I would think Healthmatters is none too happy either 😕

Support your local independent store or Lordship Lane will get really dull

Gusto Italiano (cosy cafe on Half Moon Lane, opp Judith Kerr Primary and next to Kens Fish Bar) has a nice new front deck in addition to its pretty little back garden now - will be great in the brighter weather ahead.

West 16th next door has a stylist indoor area too.

They're both worth a visit.

Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area. 

Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers.

Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. 

The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop

Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items. 

The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
