I shouted "happy new year" and "happy new year East Dulwich Forum" while at Dawsons Heights Hill,

and a few people responded to the former.


Saddest sight was me realising there was more walk to get home and not enough mulled wine in the flask to last the walk!

Bus driver not letting me back onto N68 at Camberwell Green at 3.30am to retrieve my treasured 40-year-old hand crocheted shawl which I had left upstairs and realised immediately I got off that I had left it on the bus. I explained the situation and he still refused.


Bastard.


I have the bus number etc but he refused to give me his name. Somehow doubt I'll ever get the shawl back. Not a good start to the New Year. I had a very cold walk home (6)

Glad to hear you got a response! There was a lot of singing going on as well - Auld lang Syne and so on... so it wasn't as sad as I intimated in my first post. It was a nice happy atmosphere really. Pity we don't know each other - I could have invited you in to top up your flask for your long walk home....

    • I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).
    • We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery
    • Hi. Does anyone know of a silver making jewellery workshop. I am trying to find something nice for my daughter’s 18th birthday.l for her and some friends but everything I find online is too pricey or can’t accommodate 10 girls. Thanks 
    • Without doubt a busy road with constant traffic - but can always put in double glazing. If you have a car, don’t expect to park right outside - prob further away but with walking distance. Agree with PeckhamNicola re train times and freight but at least not wizzing by every few minutes! Sorry but little experience in state schools - obviously you have plenty of private - Jags Dulwich College, Alleyns. Judith Kerr on Half Moon Lane - good rep - no idea whether secondary or primary  - think primary. Also Charter School North - good reputation and Ark Evelyn - no idea! You might also look at West Dulwichand Crystal Palace Schools. Try Harris Academy as well. All the best.
