This morning I was crossing Rodwell Road when a very pregnant lady looked 'uncomfortable' (to say the least), I asked if she was ok and then it was fairly obvious she'd gone into labour - I feel like I've been bear hugged! A lovely family on the corner of Rodwell/Crystal Palace road took us into their house, a couple of others phoned the ambulance (one was a GP thank goodness!) and I stayed with Bissy until the paramedics took her off to Kings (more bear hugs!) - by that time her contractions were only 2 minutes apart. She did so well, I'm sure she didn't plan to spend those intimate moments with a complete stranger in another stranger's house, but it did make me smile (especially when she was vowing never to have any more children!!) - when I spoke to her husband he was obviously in far more shock than she was.

Anyway, just wanted to share, I hope Bissy and KT now have a beautiful baby son (its amazing the conversations you can have inbetween 2min contractions...), and what a lovely community east dulwich is - no-one blinked an eye, eveyone just wanted to do all they could for Bissy and the baby.

    • My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky. 
    • Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks. 
    • Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.
    • Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo
