Well done, Will - good post. If you can bear to read the rest of this thread (and I wouldn't blame you if you couldn't), you'll see the original poster didn't get very far. And they were only asking (so nicely, as well) anyway. And now they have their answer.


PS Declaration of interest: I once had a couple of pints in The Palmerston. It was nice.

I have read the rest of the thread and I pass my thanks to all those that reasoned with common sense.

Excellent post from the Palmerston - perhaps people won't be willing to cast such stones under the guise of the anonymity of the internet when they actually get explanations from the people they are so happy to slag off.


Incidentally really glad to hear you were so busy - good news that local businesses are doing well.

Laudable response Will. Very thorough and should put this to bed.


Can't help thinking it would be amusing if it were not the Palmerston. On here there was once a heartfelt negative critique of an evening at Le Moulin only for the poster to do some hasty backtracking once they realised that the place they'd eaten in was in fact Le Chardin.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
