Just spotted this thread, the lounge posts make sense now.


Absolute classic line there owl wise. Very well-observed & made me smile.

So did you take him be the shoulders and say "I will find you!"?

Maybe she has a point.A kind of economic social cleansing has gone on in the area. It is reflected on this forum, in the posts and for those who remember the area pre-Yuppy, it is bound to rankle.

Anyway your witch hunt has worked...

"I'm going to scream, and scream, and scream till beastly Louisa goes away...Nanny!"

Thanks Administrator. I was starting to get worried that everyone's more interested in someone called Louisa on this forum and not so interested in DDL, a major achiever/actor who's done something with his life, won 3 Oscars (the first man to do so) and was Knighted only last November, who was in Dulwich a couple of days ago. Seems like this Louisa has achieved more interesting things that keep the EDTers chattering... I must admit it's a bit disappointing that noone was impressed to hear that DDL was in the area. Oh well.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
