Why? Because he makes me a laugh and always tries to be diplomatic. I realise that this forum is for people to express their views and opinions, but I do think that some times it can get a bit personal.


Keef will then suddenly appear with a light-hearted joke and a sensible resolution to any disputes. Brilliant!


Oh, and he supports the mighty LFC >:D<


Edited for Keef :)

Dangerous thread - could become a right luvvie-fest


I'll name a couple of people who have kept me interested (there are others as well - hope they are not offended by not being named)


Michael Palaeologus (in his various incarnations) who was a prime mover in keeping this place more interesting than an online version of the South London Press

Dulwichmum - obvious reasons

Mockney Piers - for often making me think I posted my thoughs more articulately than I normally do (only to find it was he who made the post)

Administrator - for his single-mindedness in finding lounge material

Keef - for the reasons stated


Those are the old school posters - plenty of interesting posters joined of late. Bellendelle Belle & asset, to name but two

Always fond of a luvvie fest...

Snorky often makes me chuckle - I like a maverick.

Sean MacGabhann always makes the effort to contribute to threads - a friendly, thoughtful voice always (oh and a Rufus Wainwright fan to boot).

Dulwich Mum of course - our very own mascot

And far too many names which crop up, making me smile, think, and wish I didn't have to get back to work.

Oh cool, I'll keep an eye out, just had to give up on large chunks of the 1500+ posts I've missed this week.

And cheers for the nod too Sean, thoroughly enjoy your contribution too.


And while we're all on a snorky love-fest, I have to say that I've grown quite fond myself.

And I have to go Polly D for making me want to say 'word' and then chuckle all the time (and for being jolly nice)

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
