Recommended Posts

Nunhead Beats the Bounds - A Community Walking Event on Saturday 5th July 2014.

http://www.nunheadbeatsthebounds.co.uk


Organized by Resonance 104.4FM's Nunhead American Radio with Lewis Schaffer - the only radio programme for Americans living in Nunhead - and The Relatively Good Radio Show.


Saturday, 5th July 2014 at 2PM

Meeting Place: Nunhead Green.

Ending at: 4PM Nunhead Green.


Join the Second Annual Nunhead Beats the Bounds on Saturday, 5th July 2014.


Last year, the ancient tradition of Beating the Bounds was reborn in Nunhead. Nunheaders came together to celebrate and mark the boundary of our village.


This year our parade will be even bigger and better. Starting 2pm at Nunhead Green. March from Nunhead Green to Queens Road, up to Ivydale Road to One Tree Hill and down Peckham Rye back to Nunhead Green.


Nunheaders young and old will pound the roads, trees and buildings with sticks. We will sing of Angels, William Blake, Queen Elizabeth, Dr. Harold Moody and the other icons of Nunhead. We will rejoice in our Nunhead!


Ending at 4pm back on Nunhead Green with music, refreshments and a free glass of Nunhead Whacker, an ale specifically brewed for this event.


Nunhead Beats the Bounds will define the shape of Nunhead for future generations, again.


The procession will be headed by Lewis Schaffer, host of Nunhead American Radio with Lewis Schaffer, and The Relatives, from The Relatively Good Radio Show, with representatives from community and religious organisations from the constituent areas of Nunhead: Nunhead Village, Olde Nunhead, Nunhead Rye and Nunhead Heights.


It will take approximately 2 hours to do the 4.5 miles, culminating in an 'Event of Nunhead Unity' with music, comedy and picnics on Nunhead Green. Nunhead Beats the Bounds will be inclusive, interfaith, multicultural yet very, very British. All brought to you by the Americans of Nunhead.


Please join us for Nunhead Beats the Bounds - A Community Walking Event.


With funding from Southwark Council's Sustainable Transport & Road Safety Fund.


And additional support from The Salvation Army of Nunhead, Burger Bear and The Old Nun's Head.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
