Welcome to the EDF bejam. If you thought DaveR's post was seething you'd better get yourself one of these*, standard issue...

If only you'd done a bit of deft editing yourself...


(Not sure why you think I would want to edit it anyway. I suspect your tinfoil hat is already firmly in place.)

Thank you for that helpful suggestion - where can you buy one of those hats? I'm really digging the homemade look (is that correct hipster speak?). I've just been to the friendly Balfe's today and bought one of those single gear bikes with flat handlebars as I think they're quite on-trend at the moment.

You can't buy one Bob, that was my whole point, there's a massive market of gullible eager buyers out there just waiting for the next big thing. Just imagine, Origami you can actually wear! And it's totally bespoke, no two hats the same. And with it being East Dulwich, don't forget the eco/recycling friendly angle...hat today, turkey foil wrap tomorrow!

Do hipsters drink lambrini, in a sort of post-apocalyptic limited resource ironic kind of way? I mean if that's the case then tonight baby I'm a hipster. The cherry lambo is out to play because everything else has been drunk and I'm finding myself talking to myself on here for the rest of the night because it's a school day tomorrow and everyone's gone to bed to dream of croissants and waitrose or whatever the good folk of ED dream about. Anyway, if I were a hipster, I think I'd quite like to visit one of the many pop-up burger restaurants/caravans or whatever coming into the area. Who needs GBK my good friends of ED when you can rough it with a cavier infused prime steak burger served on a rusty wheel trim in the back of a Peckham car park I ask you? I'm mentally there already. Chow down time on a beautifully presented in a working class ironic sense, at a price not to be sniffed at. What shall we say, 35 smackers for a cavier burger?

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By Insuflo · Posted

      I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...

      Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
