Blend in with the cars? Wow - I had no idea that Forest Hill Road was awash with psychedelic hippymobiles :-)

I hate them to be honest - they distract drivers and attract children to go near them and the road. I wish Southwark council would ask local residents' opinions about these things before going ahead.



I also have no idea what's green about using spray paints....

I have seen thr person painting them and if you look they are quite intricate and agreed the pattern is somewhat childish. Also I agree that they should be black hence my point that they are tacky! given that you think they should be black, that would suggest they are of colour i.e colourful....no? I am not quite sure at what point I agreed with their current design!

Is the cost of this coming from the council tax? If so, I am not surprised they are wasting money on this type of hippy nonsense. Since the council politics is at odds with central government politics yet again then front line services will be used as a political football.
I like them. Colourful and cheerful. Colour makes me happy. Nothing unique about black - just dreary and dismal. It's not bad art either, it's just different. I like the fact that artistic flair is being shown throughout East Dulwich. Certainly brings a smile to my face.

There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
