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 :))

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment rates going in the right direction at the END.

      By HeadNun · Posted

      Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse.

      While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.
