Hopefully by the time the paintbrushes are out they'll have realised what an absolutely bloody awful name they've come up with.

I went there on Saturday. It seems creamier than Oddonos which may be more authentically Italian (I don?t know) but really it is a matter of personal taste if you prefer it.


I live much closer to Oddonos so won?t be going out of my way to go to Fire and Ice but if I fancy some gelato after lunch or dinner at the Flying Pig, I will definitely go back.


They should do a nice trade near the playground and its nice to see more businesses opening up. I wish them well.

They had (maybe still have) a notice on their door on Friday night which I didn't thoroughly read as it was quite long, but I believe the name is part of a quotation from Blake, or is related to Blake in some way.


As they are just round the corner from the Blake mural, I actually think the name is quite appropriate, if that is why they have chosen it :)

Tried Fabulous Ice fire last week and got hooked. Delicious flavours, and love their own recipie. Of course it's personal tastes but I prefer it to Oddono. It would be good to have different portion sizes (though 3 flavours for ?2.50 seems good value given the portion sizes) - and yes, I have suggested it to them, too.
A pilates studio has taken over the old French cafe site...couldn't see another cafe and restaurant opening there tbh. But there seems to be something opening up near the cemetery end of forest hill road, go past on my bike every day and have been watching the builders at work, front painted and planters outside where I guess there'll be seating.

I like Le Chandelier and it would be a shame if it were to close, but must admit, it never seems that busy whenever I've visited.

    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
    • MaryT, I’ve contacted the Dulwich Hill councillors several times in recent years, always copying them both in. I have never had an acknowledgment from Jon Hartley (not even an automated response or out-of-office) nor had any response or engagement from him regarding the issue raised.   On each occasion, only Maggie Browning responded (she uses an out-of-office if she is away). The last time, I received no response from either for 3 months, until Maggie Browning emailed me to apologise for not responding and asking if the problem had been resolved.
    • The  Kwasi effect is being considered.
