Hello, we live near Goose Green playground and park our car on Adys Road. Over the last few months we've woken up to find that thieves have gained access to the car without breaking any windows or doors. The car is 10 years old so is not true keyless entry. There is a lock button on the key fob and we are wondering if this could have been cloned somehow. We never leave valuables in the car but is it annoying to find people have rifled through the car contents - especially in these COVID times. This time they actually left one of their gloves behind! Has anyone else experienced these soft break-ins please? Also for others do be careful what you leave in your car.

Have you asked the families annoying you to be quiet or is this a general rant at everyone with kids. The last few months have been hard on everyone especially kids. Give them a break. It's a nightmare trying to juggle work and kids specially today when it's hot and for most of East Dulwich also no internet. I would love to let mine run around the park all day but this isn't practical when you are on video calls. To keep the house cool they actually say keep doors and windows closed and draw the curtains so maybe you should do this to help with the heat and the noise

BLUE STORY coming soon to cinemas features Peckham a lot - link to trailer below

dulwich leisure centre do one on one lessons. Most of the teachers are available for this. Just ask reception x

we went to Riverhill Gardens this weekend. Really lovely place and great Bluebells

I know. I was chatting to a friend about the Adys Road 'parklets'. She put it very well - I don't want to eat Tacos in a parking bay I want to be able to park in it!. A nice idea in theory put community run and in busy areas? I can't see that being popular or practical

Be interesting to hear others thoughts on the proposed community run 'Parklets'

Dulwich lessons have got better. There is much more consistency in teaching now. Both my kids swim at the same time in different stages and it's so local. Yes they are never gonna to be as nice as some of the other places but it is a local authority centre.

I emailed the council about it a few years ago when they first did it. I asked why it wasn't painted a different colour. I can't even remember their reason but I remember thinking it was a lame response. Let me try and dig it out

I normally switch to that in the darker months

This makes me so sad to read. I cycle back through the canal path as well. So now I feel I need to take a new route. You think cycling is the best means to get from A to B to collect your kids in time. Seems I am stuck between crap Thameslink trains and now bike mugging threats!
