The Bellenden Big Lunch was a huge success. Estimate about 120 people came by with food and drink, meat to BBQ, music (Sly and Reggie were here too), games for the children, chalk drawing on the road and the shops participated too. It was a great day and we're looking forward to next year.

sounds like southwark council were really helpful which is good news for encouraging others to organise more in the future

some said that ?50 for insurance plus getting a consensus is all it takes to get the council on side

quite a few didnt materialise but the seeds have been sown

Yes the other photo on the BBC website is one I took of everyone on Cornflower Terrace! Well spotted boosboos!


Just to pick up on what Reggie mentioned about Southwark - they were fantastic with us. I sent an email asking about the process for closing our road and someone called me back, told me that I needed 3 things - insurance, a risk assessment and some sort of confirmation of support from the majority of residents - and he did the rest. The road closed barriers were dropped off for us to put up and take down on the day. It couldn't have been easier.

I live in Ulverscroft Road, heard nothing about a lunch beforehand, but was sitting outside my house around 12.30 pm on Sunday when two guys went past in a vehicle bearing what they claimed was the loudest sound system in the universe looking for the Ulverscroft Road Big Lunch ......


Don't think it can have happened, but as I spent the rest of Sunday afternoon in the Palmerston whilst paint was drying on my hall floor thus preventing me entering my house, I wouldn't know :))

      Interested to know dog owners opinion

      By Huggers · Posted

      I would never leave my dog tied up outside a shop nowadays. A large proportion of ‘dogs stolen’ notices feature dogs nicked from outside shops- fancy dogs, old dogs, mongrels , all sorts. Stolen on a whim, for mischief, for profit or as a bait dog to train fighters. A thief might abandon them shortly afterwards, but the heartbreak and confusion is already done and a reunion not guaranteed.

      Ryedale SE22 - Proposal to block end of Ryedale at junction of Underhill Road - January 2026

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      It's a terrible idea, will damage trade in Forest Hill Road and is just creating a nice private road for someone to enjoy. Congestion in the road is caused mainly by delivery vans, well, let's help stamp out those scourges. And an 18 month trial is at least a year too long if you are just interested in judging impact. And there has been no consultation at all, save, perhaps, with the privileged Rydale-ers. I live a block away in Underhill and I've heard only via social media.

      Gyms in dulwich

      I’ve been a member of FitFor on Lordship Lane for years and absolutely love it. The team are always friendly and supportive of my fitness goals. They’ll put together a workout plan with a personal trainer if you need it. You can use their super high-tech e-gym equipment or free weights as you wish. The cardio area is excellent too. There are no issues with overcrowding or ‘meat heads’ hogging the equipment either. I cannot recommend FitFor highly enough. It’s affordable too which is a big bonus. Good luck with your health plan for 2026 !
