She never did live in Dulwich. She bought the house, the builders chopped down the trees at the back of the rugby pitch where we used to go for a sneaky cigarette during school, to make way for her garden. All for nothing, she never stayed there.


I too saw a mini motorcade a couple of weeks ago twice coming down LL from the Harvester and turning down Barry Road, no idea why. There didn't seem to be anyone except for the driver in Range Rover which was the main car. Ho hum.

Sweet Knackared Cow,


Indeed it was me. I had been over to Morrisons in Peckham, and well, you can't be too careful (sigh). This Swine Flu situation is making me very nervous, and I decided to do one great big shop on all of the essentials in case stocks run out in the stores. They do not sell high quality hoisery in Peckham so I am off into Sloane Square this morning (even civil disopedience and looting in the streets should be no excuse for wearing poor quality tights and stockings). I bought a couple of trays of Lloyd Grossman pasta sauces, a large quanitity of tinned salmon and tuna, and my body weight in dried pasta and rice and a huge amount of Evian. Those nice police men even helped me to carry it into my home!

    • Hi, I went to the council's planning portal to look at the application, and I encourage others to look at it. It looks like a pleasant building, with thoughtful landscaping. as Pugwash said, the big oak would be retained, only two smaller trees are supposed to be cut, one of which is already dead according to the Tree Survey. It sounds like 38 people in great need of it will gain supported housing thanks to this development, a very positive change. Of course a solution has to be found for the 3 who will need to find other accommodation during the works, but that doesn't seem enough of a reason to oppose the development. The current building is 4 stories, so I would be surprised if one extra storey was considered objectionable, especially considering the big oak stands between the building and the neighbours' back gardens and the fact that the neighbours it's backing onto are all 5 stories houses themselves or only have blank walls facing the building. In the context where affordable housing is sorely missing, a 100% supported housing development is great news. Personally I've never seen a less objectionable planning request
