I'll second this - perhaps when funding comes up - late in the year?? - its worth putting an application in?


Re: running up hill. It STILL makes me mad every time I pass the one o'clock club and remember how lovely that water feature was for a few brief weeks and how much the kids enjoyed it. I just don't understand why the contractor got away without snagging this???


Putting it right - assuming its too late for them to be held to account - would also be high up my cleaner, greener wish list...

peckham rye park is looking great ... and when we came out of the park and onto the rye yesterday afternoon around 4.30 there was a rather brilliant 7-piece brass band playing just in front and to the side of the cafe... anyone know whe they are and if they'll be returning? so lovely to sit on the grass and listen!

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
    • It’s about chains, and the ethos of family run business versus unhealthy competition

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
