'Most people worry about what they eat between Christmas and New Years, when they should actually worry about what they eat between New Years and Christmas'.


The new years festivities are over. The liver is back to functioning at normal levels, the champagne glasses neatly stored in the kitchen cupboards and the rolls of streamers tucked away until the next cause for celebration erects itself. As we drift back into routine and a working week, we are so frequently hit with the question of new years resolutions that small bruises are starting to form. It is the ultimate in smalltalk, post-festiveseason. My question is, are new years resolutions really necessary? They provide us with a sense of hope and potential, filling our hearts with the future possibility of true happiness, love and success. We tell our colleagues, our friends, our family; 'This is the year I [quit smoking/stop drinking/lose weight/find a better job/find a better boyfriend/find God/dye my hair green etc.]', but come mid-January, I see only the pressure of these goals we get from ourselves, our friends, our family and our colleagues coming down on us when asked 'So have you [quit smoking/met sobriety/stopped eating cake for breakfast/quit your job/dumped him/been to church/found a stylist] yet?'. Do you feel pressured? Have you started on your goals yet? I say ditch the new years resolutions and focus on a balanced all-year round approach to achieving your goals.http://www.postalgold.info/

    • Hey all 👋 I’m fairly new to running and have (perhaps ambitiously!) signed myself up for a half marathon later this year. I’d love to find a few others who are also just starting out and fancy running together in a relaxed, non-intimidating way.  The idea would be a very low-key, beginner-friendly run club — lots of jogging, walking breaks totally welcome, zero pressure on pace or distance. I’m particularly keen to create a small, supportive group for women who might feel more comfortable running as part of a group, especially around the park. I was thinking of doing gentle runs around Peckham Rye Park to start with. If that sounds like something you’d be up for, give me a shout — would be lovely to see if there’s enough interest to get something going 😊
    • Hey rugby fans,   Happy New Year!   Try Time Kids' Rugby is back this coming Saturday (10th Jan) for the Spring Term! If you struggle to find things to do with your little ankle biters on Saturday mornings, why not come down to Try Time Kids' Rugby and let us take them off your hands for an hour? As well as transferable sports skills, we teach our 2-7 year old members the four pillars of sports that Try Time was founded on, encouraging them to be energetic, imaginative, inclusive and respectful.   Sessions run 9.30-10.30am and 10.45-11.45am on Saturdays depending on the age group. We also run an inclusive more relaxed group for children that would otherwise get lost in our normal fast paced sessions at 10.45am. With Pay As You Go sessions available for those not looking to commit to a full term, there's something for everyone!   Both boys and girls are welcome, sibling discounts are available!   Sign up for a trial today at https://ttkr-dulwich.classforkids.io/   Contact Kat today at [email protected] if you have any questions or would like more details! See you on the pitch!
    • I would think so too but surely they are losing money now anyways from not building for so long
    • From what I’ve researched online, they aren’t issuing any opportunities for sub post office licenses in this area for ages so LL is so stressed out. If this is ever going to improve they need to start allowing applications for licenses in this area so complaining may be helpful if anyone can do this when they have time using the link from above? It’s very annoying indeed using LL especially when collecting
