As if by magic been e-mailed by Ivy


Picture this: You are squashed in amongst a hoard of frostbitten strangers staring up at Big Ben. The bottle of fizz in your hands has gone flat long ago. You try to still bear a grin despite losing all your friends to the crowds and the feeling of early onset, new year morning neck ache. "Who likes fireworks anyway?' you think to yourself. "Damn, I wish I stayed local..."


Don't make the same mistake I have made year in year out. Stay local, don't pay entrance fee or any cab fair. See in the new year amongst familiar faces, great beer and wine and enjoy an awesome DJ set of dancehall fillers from the 60s to the present day (any requests welcome!)

    • Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.    
    • Back to my earlier post about familiarity.  I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations.  Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street.  Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun.  Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough.  How wrong was I?  Only real pub left in the area.
    • Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
