Hello and welcome Gabriele, I'm not Italian, I'm Irish. Close enough though.

Matriarchily dominated, bossed by The Pope and a carbohydrate based diet. Alike as two peas. In different pods.

Apart from the piss artist thing we're so alike.


Sorry Gabriele I ramble, welcome once again, stick around.

warf !


Not sure any of them died in there, the brits were not quite that bad ! although they were probably safer in there than out in ED, the cappucino in ED is so bad that it's enough to kill. God knows what it would have been like in the 40's, and people then were not as 'educated' as the foodies of ED !

Ha ha ha ha my name is Luisa not 'Luisa'! Who else is there that signs off lavishing praise on Il Mirto?!

I think you may have been on this forum for far too long and become very suspicious and jaded. You obviously don't understand how exciting it is for an Italian to have a Italian restaurant like Il Mirto move in 5 minutes away. Good Italian food and bring your own booze is heaven for me. I'm quite enjoying being accused as a fraud - if I could be bothered and wanted to, is there anyway that i could prove that I'm not?

I think you (and me) seem to have got the wrong end of the stick. The 'Luisa' I'm talking about (Louisa) doesn't sign off with praise for Il Mirto but stamps her name at the bottom of her rant. Much like you did in the post that attracted my attention and led me to suspect that our little firebrand was trying to pass herself off as a continental johnny foreigner.


Ciao for now.

      Family Photography

      By dianamaru · Posted

      Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).

      Be careful in local shops

      By David Peckham · Posted

      I don't! But I've also taken to calling myself David, as it seems to shorten the odds of achieving something in life. It's not King Dave, Dave Lloyd George, Dave Hockney, Dave Bowie or Dave Hasselhoff is it? And I'm not sure Michelangelo would have had such success if he'd called his sculpture 'Dave'.

      Where to recycle shoes & trainers please?

      By ed_pete · Posted

      I think there is still a shoes/clothes recycling bank outside of North Dulwich station.
