Don't go over reaching yourself there Louisa


How do you propose to "dress as a Yummy Mummy" I wonder ?


I'll be first in the queue


Or buy you a drink in Jan

Two in five Britons never read a book so he is not alone.

I've read many books in the past but simply do not have the time these days.

With digital cine-photography I'm don't know if they still dim the lights.

But as soon as they do, I'm fast asleep within 5-10 mins.

Same if I try and watch a film at home.

ED Picturehouse have just posted the following on FB


Wonderful people of East Dulwich!


You may have noticed that progress on the building work has been slower than expected. But we have all been working as hard as we can, and we are now pleased to announce that we will be opening our doors on ? drumroll please ? Friday 20 March. We promise it will be worth the wait!

More news soon...

So have I. But I don't like being patronised - nor indeed spoken to as if I was a small child. By way of example the previous FB item on the Picturehouse blamed the building work delay on Santa! I haven't believed in Santa since about 1957.

It's social media. Social media marketing is done by people under the age of 25. They believe that everyone else in the world is under the age of 25 too ? except for their parents and a few dribbling old people who watch "Countryfile". Even my bank talks like an excitable teenager on Facebook.

Err. No surprise . You posted a wildly optimistic opening schedule and some of us said so. There was never a change of a 2014 opening. Why pretend otherwise.

Why be so mean about it? You think they duped us all into joining by telling us it would open a mere 3 months earlier than they knew it would? What a pointless conspiracy! The building is old and being converted to a use never before imagined - I'm happy to accept they encountered unforseen obstacles and take the delay in good faith. Anyway, it's their cinema, not yours. Let them open it whenever they want. When it does, we'll go. What's the problem?

What he said, and I'm totally guilty of referring to my social media followers (I run a small biz) as 'lovely people' or whatever. It's better than 'utter w**kers of East Dulwich', although on reflection perhaps that would be more appropriate

      WARNING . Please feed the birds in your garden

      By Angelina · Posted

      Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.

      WARNING . Please feed the birds in your garden

      Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.

      Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou

      Police Incident outside Rose Fish/Parade East Dulwich Roas

      I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
