Thanks guys



I've been trying to put an ad on this site for more business as I've relocated my registered office address, but it's been really difficult trying to speak to Admin or Mark. I've completed the web form but nothing, not even a response..


Any pointers would be a big help please, thanks again..

Au contraire - there is a lot going on in West Dulwich proper; the WD forum gets clogged up with 'cheap kitchens from Runcorn' and 'Moncler ski jackets' spam which puts a lot of people off...

easy now LadyN


I like WD plenty enough, but to say "a lot" going on is a bit overdefensive?


The WDF has never ever been busy - it's traffic spikes coincided when people start threads sniping at ED or EDF


and WD itself doesn't have a beating heart like LL or Rye Lane. And that's ok, that has pluses too. But "a lot going on"? Seems to be pushing it

a lot less bitching than where LadyN


because it sounds to me like it's you who is bitching here


The shops on Croxted Road are fine. As I said I like WD plenty enough. But the shops on Croxted Road - well, they are smaller and more spreadout aren't they? And if you head out of an evening your options are limited right? Again, I'm not saying that's a bad thing - not at all. But "plenty going on" and a "beating heart" it ain't


I'm not quite sure why you think that statement constitutes criticism in any way?

It's like saying the canning, buddha jazz a launderette and a corner shop constitute the beating heart of Denmark Hill Village (pronounced villahsz).

It is a bit of a stretch isn't it.

Clearly west dulwich can do a chip on a sholder just as well as the east side! ;-P

Oh come on, WD is terminally vanilla, it's the Tunbridge Wells of south london


I lived near there for long enough and i'm trying to think what I miss about the place


Erm......ah oh yes


Kurt's Coffee truck

Sausage rolls from the bakery. Actually I do miss the old bakery, when it had those orange lights, orange is my favourite colour

And the bookshop, which I do still use, so technically I don't miss it


I miss waiting at the traffic lights or taking my life in my own hands and crossing the Croxted road and barclays bank is a corker, yeah and the waiting in line in Tesco's


I'm sure there's more

You obviously didn't live near enough Annette Curtain - it's a Lloyds Bank not a Barclays where the staff know me by name (along with all the other shops round here); countdown pedestrian lights at Croxted Road mean you don't have to dodge the cars; I'd rather smell of vanilla than LL....


Bored with this now - you all love ED, I love WD and will vigorously defend it, its beating heart and its plentiful community spirit...

I get the same treatment in HSBC on Victoria Street (Westminster) but I don't live there... dunno what that has to do with how wonderful (or not - depending on opinion) a particular area is if that what your point is? *shrugs*

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
