>>Dont be ridiculous, why would Sainsburys have a small local store that close to a big supermarket, especially in difficult economic times it wouldnt make sense! <<


Well they have a small local one in Herne Hill, not that much further from DKH than the Plough parade is. I think one just there could so quite well myself.

Hi, anyone know what the plans are for the area behind the new Somerfield (or whatever it will be), I live a few doors down Landells Road and am now horrified that HGVs will be backing in to make deliveries 24hrs a day! The apartments which have been built above the shops all have balconies facing the back, not a nice view if it's just to be parking.

Another Foxtons apparently

We won't get an M&S or a Waitrose here.


Why.

Look at Northcote rd in Battersea. Same type of set up to E.D. Varied professional Middle class locals and others , lots of "village-y" variety, a market & far too much competition from strong independents.


To be noted, they have no real bank cash points & only a Co-Op in the main street.

When I lived in Clapham south M&S moved in because of good demographics but no serious competition.


E.D is a victim / winner of it's own success.


Enjoy it as it is.......who needs them anyway..........really?


I may be wrong but I doubt it..........!


W**F

Dear Mitch,

Surely you are not insinuating that the only people that frequent Somerfields are riff-raff? I see mostly middle class people exiting the shop on Lordship Lane.


Your comment is so frightfully upper class and 2006.


Kind regards,

Libra Carr.

I would support the nightclub idea.


Everyone on the terrace having tearful disco sunrise moments as the sun rises over LL.


Huge dubstep night on Wednesdays.


8-hour minimal sets from me and Villalobos at afterhours session starting at 12 pm sundays.


Get Tim Sheridan down to do something.


*likes this idea*

Actually, with mainstream artists like La Roux handing over remix duties to the likes of Skream and even Lil wayne picking up on the sound this year - not to mention Martyn et al helping evolve it from its more simple roots of a few years back I'll stick my neck out and say it'll probably be around for a few years yet.


Um, yeah, where were we. Somerfield, eh?

Not really. Not that someone would promo dubstep as a genre anyways ; )

    • Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.    
    • Back to my earlier post about familiarity.  I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations.  Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street.  Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun.  Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough.  How wrong was I?  Only real pub left in the area.
    • Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
