[i have to be careful, as I have had a post deleted and a warning given on this thread already- this is a general point & ( Mr Admin ) not directed at any particular business]



MY point is obvious - Pubs are not of much benefit to the community these days - the days of a husband & wife team in a local corner pub providing a Eastenders kind of meeting place are long gone. the Victorians knew the benefit of having this type of establishment on most streets and incorporated them into their gand plans


Opportunistic bar developments like we see on LL of late posess no such nobility - they are a blunt instrument to make as much money as possible & have a detrimental effect on the local area - those Saturday night victims from Penge add nothing to the ambience of LL and make the resident lives althogther poorer


Downsides far far outweight the upside of having ( another ) bar on the lane.


If you consider this objectively & take emotion & right wing free marketry rubbish out of it - Who would truly welcome the opening of a business that is likely to destroy the relative tranquility of locals lives?


I am sure various offended business owners will send in tbheir complaints to admin on and , some may even have to gall to post ( unlikely ) but IMO, whatever case they put is indefensable


so there

"My pram won't fit through the door."


EH, are you joking?


"It's too noisy. It's not noisy enough."


I'd rather silence than a stinking, screaming pram by my side whilst I'm trying to enjoy my meal or drink. Nobody should have to put up with that.

Stinking Screaming Pram. Thanks TheXWinglessXBird., the perfect name for my up-coming punk/prog project.

Keep 'em coming. That's the album title.

"I doubt there would be too many prams in bars on LL in the evening as the venues probably don't have a licence for that beyond 7 or 8pm, do they?"


No, I suppose not. Actually, I had caf? Nero in mind & brought up a bad experience. I haven't had the time to check out this new bar. Anyway...


Is it Boho or Hobo?

Oi XWinglesXBird stop being so dithery, front up with some proper 'tude girlfriend.

How else will I source names for my future musical projects?

That may or may not exist.

Get with the scene, as we Bohos insist on having it.

Elephant/sparrow, both animals. Both fine.

Unless the elephant decides to take a 'piggy-back' of the sparrow.

Elephants being the dopiest lumbering schmucks of the animal world, they'd likely as not do it, the gormless f*ckbuckets that they not only look, but probably are.

Anyway, it'll all end up in a smashed sparrow and a slightly confused looking elephant.

More confused looking than they usually are. They are dozy looking aren't they? Elephants.

W*nkers.

I'm not even being dithery. I don't even know why I'm about to explain why, given that you just pooped out 7 posts of crap. Somebody has way too much time on their hands.


The topic is about bars NOT coffee houses, otherwise I probably would have given out full blown attitude. I could bitch all day about the hippies of East Dulwich (& village).

    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee. Worth contacting her with views on ammendments to the original license. I am fairly sure she won't grant any amendments, but just in case.....
    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
