Morning all,


After recently moving to Peckham Rye and renovating our home I wanted to source as much as I could locally - and hence share my experiences on the forum for anyone else looking to source similar things..... One particular place that stood out was our local shop Casa on Bellenden Road. Casa sells amazing modern and old/Victorian fireplaces, doors, stoves, reclaimed cast iron radiators and an assortment of accessories (door handles, mirrors etc). If the fixtures themselves aren?t enough to entice you into the shop, the service should be - it is second to none - Matt the owner is personal and extremely helpful - he went over and beyond to help us source reclaimed marble fireplaces and cast iron radiators (which we had sprayed to colours to match our home) and any other extras we needed. even if he didn?t have them he knew someone who could help. He worked with us to our budget and unlike other shops of a similar nature didn?t try to rip us off or make the extra buck through fitting and accessories. We now down bother looking around as Matt offers competitive prices and more importantly is trust worthy - so we've since been back to see if he can help source door knobs and doors....


Thus if you want a local and friendly service for any of the above house hold fixtures I really recommend popping down to Casa....even if its to see what Matt has reclaimed from his recent hunts!

    • The river Peck is partly underground if you live near the park and on its route
    • I have spent many years pondering the state of dampness in my basement and had composed a long and rather boring reponse. Have reduced it to bullet points: The cause of damp on the common wall with my neighbour was found to be caused by a slow leak their side which they were unaware of. Leak was repaired and dampness subsided. An experienced drainage man told me there are no underground rivers in East Dulwich My damp patches come and go and are more prevalent in summer when the humidity is high and barely there during the winter. I was considering getting a dehumidifier until I read they can suck the water out of walls/floor and make the problem worse.  
    • Thank you all for your input- we had the children with their mother for a few days. individually the children went out - one  to the theatre and Camden Market and Horniman's. The other to the transport museum and Leicester Square (could not get in to the Lego place so went into M & M place) also Dulwich Park with his Aunty and cousin. My daughter is a special needs teacher in Sussex and even though schools have closed, she had  to work 2 days (INSET Days)  one day she had a 3 hour zoom call with her colleagues as could not find a child minder, so worked from home, the next day the 9 year old spent the day with friends so she could go to work. At least with us she could get some respite from child care. After much negotiation, their father in Liverpool  has managed to get some leave from his new job for 2 weeks. My daughter will drive them to Oxford where Dad will pick up. This gives my daughter a few days  without children to catch up with various friends in the Midland's and Yorkshire. I will search the science school link as above as there maybe something in the October or February Half Terms which we could enrol the 9 year old in. We try to support our 3 daughters with child care but most of the grandchildren are grown up which leaves us with 9,11 and 15 year olds. We have not been asked to look after the 6 year and 3 year old great grandchildren - !!! We are firm believers that grandparents should be active in their grandchildren's lives and offer support where they can. I looked after my eldest granddaughter when she was a baby and toddler one day a week so my daughter could work. My granddaughter is now 26 and we are very close as she is the only one living in London. The others are scattered around Kent, Sussex and Essex.
