OK, someone somewhere must have some advance news on what is likely to happen to some/all of the shops on Lordship Lane that are currently standing empty. Not including the refurbs (eg Caravan, the Chandaler shop/tea room) and the new shops we already know about (White Stuff, the posh gymn) there seem to be a fair few empty premises at the moment. What does the next phase of ED look like?!

nah, they're still going for it. There was a delay for some reason which meant the White Stuff shop fitters missed their slot to work on it so had to go off to another job. Back in August I think. Hopefully the Estate agent who is in charge of the property will get it tidied up in the meantime, I've written to them twice about it but nothing has been done.

Someone posted about it the other day... they will sell various environmentally friendly goods.


> And is the Vietnamese definitely happening?

Again, someone posted on here saying that they were definitely opening one soon.


> Also, whatever happened to Bombay Bicycle Club, I thought they were supposed to be coming too?

I also thought that was a definite... maybe they did some research and realised there were already 87 curry places here?

I went to look at the former Unwins shop on LL and want to turn it into a toy shop. It's very run down though and the rent is very high I think thats why it's been empty for a while now.


Anyone like the toy shop idea? I want to import interesting toys from US as everything here is so samey

Use to be a great toyshop on ll before it was sold and mon petit chou were born,it was a great toy shop and people use to come from miles around for it.Great idea.Having said that importing from the states may not help with the whole carbon footprint recycling initiative we are trying to encourage.so maybe look at local or uk based companies.

Its not as easy as lower offer because there's a 3 bed flat upstairs which isn't separated from the shop itself so you'd really have to live there or carve up half the shop to create its own entrance. Also it needs thousands spending on it before you could even open up as there's no heating and its all in a very poor state of repair.


Think I'll wait until a better site appears - is the Starchey Gallery a permanent fixture on Northcross Rd?


Btw, shipping costs are for shipping not airmail

    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
