Off you go to Peckham Rye Park. The pavements are very very slippery where the kids (sorry, mostly kids) scrape off their muddy boots before climbing aboard the 4x4 to be chaufferred home.... leaving nice muddy pavements for the rest of us to slip on. On a less cynical and growling note though, I do see more mature men playing football there Sundays sometimes, the southern end, and it may be worth going there on a Sunday morning and asking if you can join in?

Ta - it was watching them yesterday that got me thinking about it! Twas a wonderful Autumnal scene - all that was missing for me was the smell of deep heat.


However, not sure I have the courage to sidle up to the players and ask if I can join in. The alternative I guess is to just start playing and see if anyone notices. . . .

I invite my mates round on some random Sundays for a kick about. Either Peckham park or Dulwich. If there are free nets we play the game - one either side of the goal with one in goal and take shots. It's as jumpers for goalposts as it gets. We're rubbish as well.

    • If you google Lulu London, it is a hairdresser on the kings road… could it still be a hairdresser which offers a glass of fizz? 
    • An update, and at the bottom of the article ways to get involved and have a voice. National 'conversation' responses close 14th Jan.  https://www.specialneedsjungle.com/leaks-denials-fake-conversations-not-inspire-parental-confidence-send/ Closer to home, Councillor Ali has conducted a review of parent and child experiences of exclusions in Southwark and reports back to those who contributed at a dated TBC in January. If it is a date which I can attend then I'll share feedback. If not, is anyone else going who could let me know what is said?
    • I’m not an expert either but surely having that high of affordable housing would seem like a terrible investment. My guess is that they will pay southwark a fine then make the rest of it student housing too
    • For some strange reason, hubby likes to spend 'big' on family cards birthday and Christmas. I think it may have stemmed from his mother- she equated money with status and was a bit of a snob!  She was also quite eccentric - we asked for a suitcase one year and got a set of 4. One year she gave hubby the equivalent of a hearing aid - it was a device to hear bird song. Nobody we know send expensive cards. We have a twice yearly set of cards from the Foot and Mouth Painting Artists and have done for the last 30 plus years. I think they are around £12 for set of 10  - cannot remember what we paid this winter but they are fantastic value and beautiful paintings.  One of the best places around to buy cards is the Fair Trade Centre at Christ Church Barry Road. Fantastic selection with a starting price of £1.30.
