poor poor Dulwich Doll, we shall miss her ..... :-S


or have I gotten the wrong person again ?

what gets me is how you all seem to know who has and has not been banned ? there is no list so i can only presume that by grassing up to admin or running to admin on masse (playground habits no doubt) you recieve a reply to your mulitude of complaining emails letting you know that action has been taken and calming you down. Then no doubt you pm all your other friends in the playground and feel somewhat empowered.


DulwichDoll return soon and lets get on with stealing their dinner money again !!

oh, don't be a silly billy AllforNun


Admin put a post up saying so, for all to see.

so no conspiracy theories needed at all...

Not at all Daizie, the first is a spontaneous burst of music hall based on your moniker, the second is the vulgar wersion we used to sing as children.

I think in the second the implication is that our heroine is 'on the game', though I never realised this when singing it as a nipper.

Of course I am not implying anything about you or your profession.

Actually Brendan I once overheard some of the servant's children singing a version which made me blush to my roots and burst into tears. When Mama demanded to know why my lacey collar was all wet I told her.

Within minutes Stebbings the butler had escorted the scullery maid, her husband the odd-job man and their four children off the premises. They were directed to the nearest gutter and told not to ask for references.

My father blamed my mother for "allowing servants to marry and breed on the premises".

I often wonder what became of them.

    • I don't think it is time restricted...the Southwark noise team's website says....(oh and look at the very first item on the list....;-))   Noise issues and nuisances that we can deal with We can help if you're being disturbed by noise coming from: amplified music TV parties nightclubs and pubs including people outside making noise DIY home renovation some construction sites barking dogs alarms / car alarms odours and fumes from commercial properties smoke commercial venues and events dust or noise from some works or equipment in the street fireworks at night from 11pm to 7am - extensions exist for the following festivals: first day of Chinese New Year until 1am the following day on the day of Diwali until 1am the following day New Year's Eve until 1am on New Year's Day 05 November until midnight
    • Surely nobody is going to want books in poor condition, unless they are rare and possibly valuable?
    • Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk.  I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.
    • Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend.
