Louisa. I love your style.

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

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.

sounds like a pile of crap to me

Absolutely Dulwich advertises Camberwell on the cover!!

Nothing in it for me, now wasting space in my recycling bin.

Saw it in a shop on LL. Just adverts and property stuff, utterly pointless.

I enjoyed reading it, its full of ads, however there were some interesting features in there. And I did enjoy reading the interviews with the estate agents. The feature on William rose along with top tips, were very helpful

I just find it odd reading a mag about my own manor. Surely with living here in real life and EDF your sorted !

I was quite chuffed to see that they featured my lampshades on the 'Prints Charming' interiors page :)
