But rickets is making a comeback.


The AJ is by subscription so I can't read the link, but on the face of it this is excellent news.


Might help with the rickets too (short duration maximum skin exposure in the right season and time of day), unless people go overboard with the sunscreen.

Not being able to read the AJ piece, but being curious about this project, I had a quick Google.


After reading about Studio Octopi's proposals for floating freshwater swimming pools in the Thames, I wonder what might happen on the Rye. I mean, I was imagining a basic 'dig pool, add changing room and vending machine' effort which would be fine, but my expectations are now spiralling wildly.

Using that link didn't work but finding the article directly through Google does (I've never visited the AJ site before, maybe that's why).


The most interesting bit:


"The plans include a 50m heated pool surrounded by smaller natural pools that would draw water from the underground River Peck which runs directly beneath the site.


Alongside the pools would be single?storey pavilions housing a gym, caf? and community space."


Heated pool - take that, Brockwell!

      House availbale to rent in August North Dulwich/ Herne Hill 4 bedrooms

      By Tamineh · Posted

      Our lovely 4 bed family house is available to rent for 3 weeks in August. It is newly refurbished. The dates are flexible. We have just listed it on air b and b. It is near North Dulwich station so an easy walk to Dulwich village and Herne Hill. If anyone is interested in taking it for the whole time we can do a deal on the price and if you book it not through air b and b it can be cheaper. https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/1451281327309758537?check_in=2025-08-08&check_out=2025-08-15&search_mode=regular_search&source_impression_id=p3_1750936175_P3KnShX5BZbLc4Of&previous_page_section_name=1000&federated_search_id=a8509fed-1030-4cce-a3e8-57cadd5a1693

      Looking for an Irish language teacher

      By Nocky2 · Posted

      Hello, I'm from Ireland and would love my children to be able to know the language - I can speak it but I'm not so good at teaching it. If there's anyone local who used to teach Irish at primary school (preferably Connemara Irish) and who'd like to tutor 3 boys aged 7-10 for an hour or two a week please do let me know. Thanks, Sarah
