Hello Does this help at all? https://hiddenarchitecture.net/dawsons-heights-state/

Firstly i do hope that the driver is not seriously injured. However this is the second time that a car has mounted the pavement on this corner of the road outside the BT building on Lordship Lane. There are not enough bollards erected on this bend to protect the public and some haven't been replaced since the last crash a few weeks ago. I fear that it could be a matter of time before a member of the public is fatally injured, as they head towards Dulwich Park or walk along that bend. Can anyone advise as to who is responsible for road safety re bollards etc along this part ?

yours sincerely

I will keep a look out for him. Is this a picture of the young man that you are referring to? https://londonnewsonline.co.uk/autistic-non-verbal-man-from-south-london-missing/#:~:text=Police%20are%20appealing%20for%20help,4pm%20on%20Tuesday%20in%20Southwark.&text=Richard%20has%20autism%20and%20is%20non-verbal.

Is computedshorty still around? I used to enjoy hearing his stories & haven't heard from him for a while

I have some lovely allotments available... please send a cheque for ?250 to PO Box 123.....

I met Marco Pierre White this week who asked me where I lived - when I said Dulwich, he replied "Lordship Lane?...I used to have a friend who had a restaurant there back in the seventies" - must be Chez Nico:)

Anyone remember the small shop in between the 'Dolphin Fish Bar' and whats now the 'Excel Child Services'?....it was a small dark, unkempt shop...maybe sold sweets run by a middle aged man?

Yes Drxyster I remember 'Heathers', full of haberdashery type things...buttons and ribbons...I bought a few yards of ribbon for my hair there as a youngster! :) Drxyster Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Could well be dbboy.

"Unwins" Off Licence was robbed and held up and closed shortly after.

- As a child I always thought that the man that owned Jonathans was like a Sergeant Major type! Jonathans was named after his eldest son (he also had a daughter called Rebecca who was an iceskater)and often I would go in there to buy my sweets from the jars behind the counter that were sold by the quarter. - I remember the Indian sweet shop also, they were always very friendly. - The family greengrocers that is now the Turkish shop was owned by a man called 'Gordon' - Lastly the butchers was a traditional butchers with sawdust on the floor:) My memories of living along that stretch for many many happy years! Edited to say correct name Gorton not Gordon!

Or the N9 nightbus runs from Trafalgar Square all the way to Heathrow...quiet roads & quick journey

I agree the staff in Iceland are AMAZING! Especially one guy who bought a shopping basket over to me when he thought I was struggling. It's nice to see good old-fashioned customer service with a smile.

It used to be an Off-licence

Thank you Ridgley for your sympathy and advice and thank you Huguenot for your knowledge, very welcome advice from both of you.

What would you do...if you had been suffering from Migraines and eyestrain for a 3 years at work which have been getting more and more regular. Then 6 months ago your work KINDLY fitted an anti glare screen for you. However you recently noticed that your 'so called' anti glare screen is in fact a privacy screen which they have fitted by mistake. I'm angry as my eyes have been getting worse and now I realise why!!!!

Hi Sheraz It may be cheaper to first try 'Vanish Oxi Action Carpet & Upholstery Stain Remover' (Sainsburys sell it). I recommended it to someone on a previous thread and it worked wonders for them as well as for me : http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?28,372588,374719#msg-374719
