Dear Mr Batdog,


Thank you very much. I am genuinely touched that you noticed!


You know I have some super news in relation to my blog, but I have been sworn to secrecy. I am not kidding you - I am rubbish at keeping secrets. But then, perhaps no-one is interested. That is one sure way of keeping a secret - if no-one wants to know what it is...

DM, just scanned your blog and saw the comments from Anonymous. What a pr*t! Don't take any notice of people like him/her, the world wide web offers plenty of room and reading for everyone. Him/her obviously gets off on baiting you and has no concept of tongue in cheek. Like an irritating child, he/she is best ignored.:)-D

No dear Mr Batdog,


Indeed it is not. This is a super blog, but nothing to do with my family. I wear Jo Malone - Lime, basil and mandarin perfume afterall! It is good to have a male perspective, but a little unnerving in that this dulwichdad claims to love my tipple and drive the same brand of car as me! I almost thought it was James for a moment!


I cannot put a link on my blog to his though, despite the fact that I like it, because I do not know the writer, and for all I know he could claim that he and his wife are a couple of "swingers" in future posts! Whatever would my publisher say to that?


You really are a super sharp dog to have spotted him!

    • Two local ‘High Streets for People’ events happening today: - Southwark celebrates High Streets for People On Saturday 21 June, Southwark Council is bringing residents, families, communities and businesses together to celebrate our High Streets. On Bellenden Road, Peckham, there will be a community event from 11am to 4pm with children’s games, face-painting, live music including a samba band and DJs, food from local businesses, cycling activities and much more. The road will be temporarily shut to vehicles between Danby Street and Choumert Road from 7am to 7pm, with buses diverted during this time to make space for community and family activities. Councillor James McAsh, Cabinet Member for Clean Air, Streets and Waste, said: “What a great way to celebrate the first day of Summer! Streets for People is about putting people first — making our neighbourhoods places where communities can connect, businesses can thrive, and everyone can enjoy cleaner air and safer streets.” Partners in the event include Bellenden Road businesses, London Play, Peddle my Wheels, JoyRiders, Community Cycleworks, the London Samba Band, OurBike, Poetic Unity. North Cross Road market will also be extended on Saturday 21 June, with extra traders taking part. Vehicle access will be restricted up to Lacon Road between 8am and 5pm to accommodate this. Local communities are also organising a number of play streets and street parties to mark the start of summer. The council has approved 18 road closures in June and July, allowing communities to enjoy their streets without traffic for the day. All these activities support Southwark’s Streets for People strategy, which seeks to make streets across the borough cleaner, greener, safer and more welcoming.  Investments are being made in walking and cycling routes, improved air quality, and creating more space for community use. Find out more at www.southwark.gov.uk/highstreetsforpeople As part of its commitment to do something each year that brings residents, community groups and businesses together to take climate action, Southwark Council has also arranged a number of free events as part of London Climate Action Week.

    • It does seem a common business strategy these days. River Island has just announced a similar restructuring: closing 33 shops and demanding that the landlords of a further 71 locations take a haircut. 
    • If anyone has any spare tickets for Crystal Palace on Sunday let me know!
    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
