What a lovely time I've had revisiting the old EDF. It says I first posted in March 2007 but I'm sure I was active in 2006. I am also going to resurrect the "What is East Dulwich reading" on the strength of my nostalgic trip as I'm hungry for some reading recommendations.

I moved to East Dulwich in summer 2008, discovered the forum between signing the rental contract on my flat and moving in.


I ended up going on a pub crawl with some of the old forumites the day after I moved in. Think Brendan may have organised it - he definitely gave me his phone number so I could track people down when I joined part way through the day at the EDT.


My life here would have been very different without the forum - not sure I'd have stayed as long without it, been a great way of making friends and finding out about things going on in the local area.

I was thinking about some of those nights the other day. Some really good times, I'd be up for one if enough people signed up.

Plenty of friendships too, but I guess that's less exciting.

    • Anything that improves the front of the station has to be a good thing. Opening up the square in front is a superb idea, it will show the beauty of the architecture of the station, just as they did at Kings Cross when they ripped out the monstrosity of the 1960's frontage and now the station gleams. People probably go there to see the beauty of it. Now wouldn't it be good if once opened up and cleaned up, people visited to see how wonderful it then looks. I guess there is a generally lack of trust that the station square will open by the end of next year, HOWEVER, when the current frontage is removed and the square is opened up as it originally was it will look grand.  
    • i) You must think Liebour can do no wrong, can lie through their teeth and yet you appear to believe every word Starmer and his stooges utter. ii) More assumptions made by you, well guess what you're utterly W R O N G, seems like that's your first trip, just as I predicted.  iii) and you won't be blaming me old man. Shockingly, I actually have to agree with some of the points you've raised.  Reform are the relics of BNP and UKIP, both detestable so add them together and you get an even worse result which is Reform that the UK can do without. 
    • Farage has done nothing but divide and diminish this country, all in the name of his ego and his bank balance. Brexit has made us poorer and has damaged our influence in the world. He supported Trump who is directly threatening our interests and he supported Liz Truss' disastrous budget. He has done his best to ensure our country's decline and now people too proud to admit their mistakes and the deleterious impact of UKIP / The Brexit party / Reform Ltd are again voting for him to finish the job / nail down the coffin lid. Yes, he is a plastic patriot.
    • You clearly don’t know Peckham Rye station there are lifts but they’re not available to the public. Actually, they were  briefly made available when the art exhibition was on.  Priorites again.
