During an idle moment I found myself musing on a brochure or somesuch to be distributed to people as they arrived to make their homes in ED. It would be called something corny like So You've Decided To Live In East Dulwich, and would tell newcomers all they needed to know about this little corner of London.


If it was up to you, what would you put in it?

Hugenot - sensible and still mostly a list of the forum contents


I did used to have the idea of creating a site along those lines but this forum overtook it and I wouldn't want to tread on toes - but some kind of summary of forum consensus (with 2nd opinions) might be complimentary to the forum rather than in competition? I don't know.... the other ED sites don't really provide that kind of info at the moment I think

    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
