Saw the great man himself this morning, directing the scaffolding and taking snaps. Was overcome by uncharacteristic shyness otherwise I would have gone up to him and mumbled something vaguely sycophantic. [Actually, I couldn't for the life of me remember his name.]

Stan met with the Deputy Head of St John's and St Clement's school this morning, to discuss the involvement of the children in repainting the mural. The staff and the governors, as well the children, are keen that the school should be involved. The Governors met last night, discussed the mural and were enthusiastic, having apparently been made aware of the plans through updates on the EDF!


Stan also met with Father Charles from St John's Church this morning.


There seems to be an all round enthusiaasm for the project, and plans are falling into place. Stan said he would provide me with a more detailed update on the meeting this morning and on the next steps, and I'll post the notes on here when he does.


PGC, say hello to him when you see him next. Very approachable, and a fund of fascinating stories about artists old and new.

    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
