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.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
