Recommended Posts

Join us on Sunday 18th October at 10.30am and hear Huw Edwards share with you his thoughts in a talk that combines themes including early Nonconformist congregations in London, some 18th century London history and also some stuff on the BBC and the way the media covers religion.


Tickets are ?15 which includes a signed paperback copy of City Mission or ?8.00 entry ticket. (plus booking fee).


The story of the Welsh in London spans a thousand years and in many ways is still largely untold. Broadcaster and journalist Huw Edwards says it is impossible to understand the history of the Welsh in London without appreciating the central place of organised religion. In City Mission, he traces an intriguing story of London?s Welsh chapels which spans several centuries. But his book is far more than a story of chapels and churches. It sheds light on the story of one of London?s first ethnic minorities ? the Welsh.


Tickets can be booked online: http://dulwichliteraryfestival.co.uk/ via email: [email protected], via telephone: 020 8670 1920 or pop into Dulwich Books on Croxted Road SE21 8SW

    • Is it just me, or are some of the cars around East Dulwich now roughly the size of a modest one-bed flat? Our lovely Victorian streets were designed for horses, carts and the occasional penny-farthing — not rolling apartment blocks on wheels. Earlier today someone tried to pass me while driving squarely down the middle of the road, seemingly too terrified to move over in case their wing mirror brushed a leaf. We ended up in a sort of slow-motion standoff that felt less “road sharing” and more “Wild West showdown”. I completely understand wanting a safe, comfy car — but when the vehicle is wider than the street and both drivers need a deep breathing exercise just to squeeze past each other, it might be time to ask whether the car fits the postcode. Maybe we need Victorian-era width limits reinstated… or complimentary tape measures issued with every CPZ permit? 😉
    • Sad to hear about Mike Dulwich Fox he was a local lad born and brought up in the area.  R.I.P Bob S  
    • Excellent news! I googled and came up with a thread from this forum about Jamie being forced out. I had posted the link, but when I read the thread I didn't think it was appropriate to post because  It was started by Dulwich Fox, who sadly died last year (R.I.P.), and contained comments by and to him which were not relevant to the actual closure.
