These hand carved, intricately and beautifully designed statues were bought in Jakarta Indonesia in the 1980’s. They depict a King (or ruler) and his Queen. There colour is natural as they are carved from animal bone and their base is made of wood. Their height is: 9.5 inches or 24cm. They could make a unique Valentine gift £40.00

Two vintage Indonesian hand carved theatre puppets These two Wayang Golek, hand carved puppets were bought as vintage in the 1980’s in Jakarta Indonesia. Their heads are wooden and hand painted in vibrant colours. Their bodies still have the original material and the King (ruler) figure has the original rod to move his head. The rod on the Queen or Prince puppet has snapped off but it is easily mended. I have kept the the original rod. £60 for the pair.

The original post was made by someone else, not the person whose post I was replying to! And the original post only mentioned Whateley Road (which has been clear of leaves whenever I have walked down it) and another unspecified road. My question was directed at CPR Dave, who (as was clear in the post I quoted) said "The streets round here are a disgrace".

We had a delivery from Matoom last week. Sadly, as I had high expectations, especially as it wasn't cheap, I was underwhelmed. To start off with positives, the corn cake starter was ok, and my partner said his green curry and coconut rice was tasty. I (unadventurous I know but I wanted to do a direct comparison with Chern Thai) had Pad Thai (with tofu and veg). There was a lot of it, which was good. So much that I had half of it cold for breakfast the next morning. However, it was almost completely noodles, with hardly any veg or tofu. In fact there was so little tofu I don't actually remember eating any. I do remember thinking that the stirred in egg must be some kind of tofu. I'm wondering now whether they were busy and forgot the tofu altogether! As it didn't come with peanuts (which I knew in advance as they weren't mentioned on the menu) I ordered a peanut sauce (?) separately, though I can no longer see this on the online menu. This didn't really help much taste wise For comparison, we both had Pad Thai for lunch yesterday (Saturday) at Chern Thai, with gyoza to start. The Pad Thai was fantastic, good sized portions with lots of tofu and several different kinds of really fresh lightly cooked vegetables. The gyoza were also excellent, just the right amount of crispiness and with a good amount of dipping sauce. The meal was also very well priced. I realise it's not very fair to directly compare the price of delivered dishes to dishes from an eat-in lunch menu, but in terms of overall value it was much better. And the service was lovely. In case our Matoom delivery was a one off glitch, we will book a table and eat in there, but so far I am disappointed. ETA: Just realised this thread is about BYO. Chern Thai used to be solely BYO, but it now has a full drinks menu with Thai beer on draught and wine. You can still BYO, but there is a charge. We had jasmine tea, which was very nice.

I am standing for Labour in Dulwich Hill in the local elections. I will be pushing for a wider consultation as soon as is reasonably possible, which I would imagine starts at the 6-month mark. If, following a fully accessible and robust consultation, this change isn’t landing well for the majority of residents, then I will push for it not to be permanent.

Hi Angelina - whilst I’m not close enough to this decision (as a candidate not a councillor), I would hope there will be public consultation if this situation arises again next year. As a local resident, I will push for this, if I do become a councillor. Hello - I will ask for this to be updated as soon as possible, as I appreciate people will be looking for this info!

Dulwich Explorers (part of the Scouting Group) are looking for enthusiastic adult volunteer explorer leaders to join the friendly team and help deliver exciting, challenging and adventurous programmes for young people, aged 14 to 18. The Explorers meet every Tuesday during state school term time (6.30–8.30pm in Dulwich, with leaders arriving from 6.00pm) and the position offers a flexible commitment from helping once every 2–3 weeks to being more regularly involved. Adventure is at the heart of what they do, with 2–3 camps per term, a longer summer trip, and plenty of opportunities to get outdoors, build skills and have fun as part of a supportive leadership team. No previous Scouting experience is needed; just enthusiasm, reliability and a willingness to get involved. The group may be able support training and qualifications in areas like hillwalking, climbing and watersports. If you’d like to make a real difference, learn new skills and be part of something rewarding, get in touch to find out more and come along to see what we do. Email [email protected] 25th Camberwell Scouts & Dulwich Explorers | Scouts | Dulwich, London, UK

You could try Merrifields, the shoe maker on the left from Goose Green roundabout going towards the station? He is very helpful, and if memory serves can also repair things like belts and bags, so worth asking (maybe phone first).

While good news in itself, does this indicate that the council have listened to the residents and decided that the second weekend will not be going ahead at all? or that there is an appetite for the 2nd weekend but the council have deferred it to next year?

Hi Tori, thanks for that welcome news. Do you know when this decision will be reported/ confirmed on the official Southwark site?
