Ir may be over fifty years since I did O Level Latin, but that doesn't sound right to me :))

They'll have a load of qualitative data to try to analyse, won't they? I don't understand what this means, can anybody enlighten me? " We are considering releasing five existing parking bays on Fridays, on Northcross Road. Do you think this is a good idea? " What does "releasing" mean? That they are going to allow parking in the bays on Fridays when they previously didn't, or that they are not going to allow parking in the bays on Fridays when they previously did?
  6. Not in London, but this might be of use if you don't already know of it? https://brightonpermaculture.org.uk/ Also https://www.permaculture.org.uk/ And https://www.permaculture.co.uk/

I have no idea whether she is from Ghana or not, but there is still a lovely lady on a stall in North Cross Road doing delicious salads (and excellent wraps, and other stuff). She is next to the Blackbird Bakery stall. Is that who you mean?

I think they must have cut down their staff. Obviously they don't need so many people now so much banking is done online, but I think they may have gone too far. I do almost all my banking online, but sometimes it is necessary to phone. At least the calls are free ..... HSBC closing in Lordship Lane has been an absolute pain as now if I have stuff to pay in I have to queue at the Post Office :(

  11. I got a letter yesterday. I live in a road off NCR, but not one which would be closed off. The same road as DulwichFox, in fact :) I support the proposed changes even if there are more cars parked in my road. I really like living so close to the Saturday market. The letter says that it is proposed to make about 20 more stalls (in addition to the existing 30). There will be a greater variety of businesses, a focal point for community groups and charities, and creative activities and performances. I think all this sounds great! JW, the letters were just addressed to "The Resident" at each address, so is it possible that somebody else has opened the letter to your address? ETA: "The closing date for receiving views from anyone who lives, works (at) or visits the market is Tuesday 31 January 2017".
  12. The 40 goes from London Bridge to East Dulwich. With the trains in such a mess, I usually get the bus these days. It may take a bit longer once you're on it, but it's better than wondering whether or not you are actually going to be able to get an advertised train .......

As you say, James Barber represents East Dulwich, and you say there isn't a problem with the libraries in this area. In any case, this isn't his forum (although he has a thread on it) so it seems a bit strange to be starting a separate thread specifically to ask him a question! http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,336529 Wouldn't you be better approaching the people responsible for the libraries to find out what their policy is and whether or not it is being implemented? I imagine it's difficult to find a balance between keeping the places reasonably quiet and not frightening potential users off.
  14. This surely isn't the cafes' fault! They are as much entitled to buy the bread as anybody else! It's the Co-op's fault for not ordering sufficient bread to meet what appears to be a regular demand, isn't it? The Co-op would be shooting themselves in the foot to ask the cafes to get their bread from somewhere else, surely?!

  16. Thanks all, I didn't think what I had would be suitable, so I took it all to somebody else's party ....
  17. Thanks both.
  18. According to a post in a Nunhead group on Facebook, a stabbing in the early hours of this morning :(
  19. To my shame, I don't know where there are food banks in East Dulwich. I've done a search on here but I can't find any previous threads, though I'm sure there must be. Does anybody have a list of locations please, and also information on whether things have to be taken there within certain hours? Also, do they just need basics like canned beans and veg, or will they take seasonal food and alcohol (left over from a party). I assume it all has to be unopened, for obvious reasons. Thanks.
  20. I got Osmo online. At the time, I couldn't find anybody who sold it round here. I didn't use it on the floor but on oak kitchen work surfaces. I'm very happy with it.
  21. OK if I guess wrong, please post the source of your data, thanks. And I will read and post on whatever threads I like!!!

Please don't start it all again. And please don't presume to speak for "the overwhelming majority of residents" unless you have valid statistical data with a sufficiently large sample size to back your statement up. Which I'm guessing you haven't.

  24. Would you like to comment on Kiera's post above?

Also 185 to Oval (for Northern Line) or Vauxhall (for Victoria Line). 63 (I think) also goes to Oval. Often quicker than going to the Elephant, once you are on the bus, but does depend on how long you would have to wait for it.
