Hi everyone.


I'm new to this forum, this is my first post.


Would someone be kind enough to tell me if they know of any good ways to meet people in or around East Dulwich? I'm new around here. I recently moved to Nunhead from a small town in Surrey and I don't know anyone.


Thanks for reading :)

Hello jacquiba!


This forum is a great place to meet local people; there are regular drinks where everyone is welcome no matter how long they've been in ED/on the forum. There have been new people at every one I've been to, so don't feel that you'd be the only one who didn't know all the others.

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

You have landed in a good place to start... I've met lots of lovely people through this very site. There are book clubs, badminton clubs, curry clubs... and indeed lots of drinking clubs that stem from here. The forum drinks is the best place to start - held the first Friday of every Month. The next one is at Black Cherry on Lordship Lane. We're a friendly bunch and everyone always makes an effort to make new people feel welcome.

Good luck.

The forum drinks are always a good start. Anywhere from 30 - 50 people from the forum meet up, generally the first Friday of the month. Also keep an eye on the "What's On" and activities mentioned in the Lounge such as the Curry Club.


Welcome to ED. The forum is great way to meet people.

Definitely have to agree re landing in the right place.. I have met lots of people through this forum and I love the community feel its gives me.. One of the best things we ever did was move to ED and join the forum!!


Definitely come to the drinks, it can be a little daunting not knowing anyone but we will all talk to you no probs!


Alt if you wanted something a little more low key to break you in to it you could come to the curry club tonight..


See you there..

Hi, what's the Facebook group for singles' exact name? I can't find it just putting in East Dulwich and I'd like to join?


Thanks.

Just searched for it... it's the "East Dulwichian Social Group". Quite an old post though, not sure if it's still active!

      Anyone else having issues with The Gardens Surgery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks.

      Milk delivery

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.

      Lexus Stolen On Melbourne Grove

      By Jojo_B · Posted

      Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo

      Milk delivery

      Another shout out for Milk & More - their app allows you to alter the order, add or subtract to it and also to schedule holiday stops without having to leave messages in bottle - so more secure. You do have to set up a direct debit with them, but I haven't had any problems with that myself. I have had one or two missed or late deliveries in several years, but not really a problem - only very occasional and caused mainly by delivery-person illness. And very much feels like an old-fashioned milk delivery. They do special seasonal offers as well. More expensive than the cheapest of the super market milk prices, but for that its at your door, fresh and no bother.
