Hi - I just want to recommend Matthew Hanson and his brilliant team of builders, painters & decorators. I needed a re-paint of my entire 1-bedroom flat recently - I was very impressed at how efficient they were. I told him I needed the job done quickly so he got three guys in there straight away - they worked solidly over the weekend and did a brilliant job. I also needed other bits and bobs doing - re-grouting wall tiles, laying floor tiles, and replacing light fittings - Matthew's team did the lot. Matthew's communication with me was excellent - whenever I needed to discuss something with him he was at the end of the phone or text message. I changed my mind on a couple of things throughout the job (e.g. type of floor tiles for instance) and Matthew was really patient & flexible, giving me quotes for the various different options I could choose. I couldn't have been more happy with the quality of the work they did, and would highly recommend them. Matthew's number is 07939 530 699. Email - matthew.hanson@yahoo.co.uk.

Hi - I just wanted to say thanks to all the various pedestrians, cyclists and drivers who stopped to offer help to my elderly mother who had a nasty fall on Barry Road yesterday afternoon. We waited for just under an hour for the ambulance to arrive, and during this time we were offered assistance by almost everyone who passed by - which even included a chair, blankets, cups of tea, a warm flat, and some company! Mum was fine - she fractured her arm and her knee cap, and has now hobbled back to her home in Merseyside with a sling and crutches - but she remained positive due to the warm-heartedness of the local East Dulwich residents, and is now telling all her friends what a lovely friendly place this is! Anyway, I'm not sure if anyone will actually see this - but if you were one of the people yesterday who stopped to help - thank you!!

Does anyone know what this place is? I've heard that it used to be a B&B and it was awful, then the owners put it on the market but it didn't sell. There appears to be people living in there and it looks in really bad condition.
