Just walked past and they're inviting people in to sample the food - had some yummy foccacia bread pizza. Their opening night is tomorrow. They all seemed lovely in there and their prices are pretty fantastic for east dulwich - ?4-6 for a plate of pasta or a pizza. I can see myself popping in there regularly when I fancy a quick bite to eat out, just hope it can survive off the beaten track unlike Springers.

So why did they have to auction the property instead of selling the business?

Every business needs an edge and without one a restaurant that people have to go out of their way to get to (ie walk away from the bars in Lordship Lane) is not going to survive.

We live 3 minutes away eat out at least twice a week and supported Springers for 10 years but it was always "We haven't been to Springers for a while let's go there" not "why don't we go to Springers because it's got a good atmosphere/serve really good food"

I popped in yesterday to pick up a takeaway menu but he didn't have any yet - he's getting them today.


The menu looks good and pizzas seem to be all ?4-?7. Really lovely guy running the place. I asked about an unusual dessert I saw under the counter and he insisted I just try it but he wouldn't take any money from me. And it was fantastic.


Looking forward to trying his pizzas....

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      David Attenborough has also done programmes on this amazing relationship.  This is from 2010 but I am sure that there were more recent programmes on the Beeb https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006ry61 Mummy trees are amazing.

      Has anyone retrospectively fit aircon in a loft conversion?

      By vladi · Posted

      Have you considered PIV - positive input ventilation. We retro fitted a Soler & Palau super quiet in-line fan system. This takes cool air from the outside ans is ducted into the loft. It is really quiet and very efficient. It is controlled by a reverse thermostat ie one which shuts the system off when the temperature drops to a set level. We are very pleased with it especially as it costs a fraction of a/c and provides greater flexibility in terms of location of vents and ducting.

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      If you’re into nature or just love trees, this lovely program is worth catching up on https://www.channel5.com/show/the-secret-life-of-trees It’s one of those quietly fascinating watches that leave you thinking about the world a bit differently. I had no idea that trees are connected underground by fungal networks. They use them to share nutrients, water, and even to send signals to each other. They can recognise their kind and give more support to their “relatives” than to other trees nearby. They can also remember things like droughts or pest attacks and change how they respond in the future. No wonder so many cultures and spiritual traditions view trees as sacred. In some belief systems, cutting one down is thought to carry serious karmic consequences. When you learn about how they live, communicate, and support one another, it makes sense. The natural world is far more aware and interconnected than we tend to realise.

      I installed an all-in-one air conditioning unit at my holiday home since I wasn’t allowed to have an external fan unit outside. It actually works just as well, was easier to fit, and although it’s slightly noisier, it’s a good solution overall. https://www.orionairsales.co.uk/all-in-one-air-conditioning-142-c.asp?srsltid=AfmBOopZSVZj1_utAO-Hr4m5M323nRZru6Zmf1YuT4KP2touJ2OLaruU
