Louisa. I love your style.

I heard there was going to be a new Pound Shop on Lordship Lane. Everything a Fiver.


Foxy.

Got my copy through the door.


The ?3.95 price on it is obviously just supposed to make you think it's worth something, as quite clearly it's a free mag which nobody in their right mind would pay twopence for, let alone nearly four quid.


At least half of the magazine consists of estate agents' stuff, including houses in SW2, and what reviews of "Crystal Palace's newest fish restaurant" and The Lido Cafe in Brockwell Park have to do with Dulwich, God knows.


Oh, and the "What's on in September" section has exactly five things in it which appear to be in Dulwich, the rest being in places like Brockley, Forest Hill and West Norwood.


Absolutely Not Dulwich, then.


"Stylish. Intelligent. Elegant. Absolutely" it says at the bottom of the front cover. In my experience, anything described as "stylish" is usually anything but, and this crock of s***e hasn't caused me to change my mind :))


My next copy will go straight in the recycling bin without a second glance.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money
