Brilliant, thanks so much!

So sorry if this has already been asked but does anyone know where I could find a protective face visor locally? Can?t seem to find one anywhere on the lane! I?ve tried AJ farmers, Dulwich DIY and pharmacies!

Hi EPB! The Estate Dairy are doing home deliveries of milk, yogurt, cheese, eggs here: https://www.theestatedairy.com/

Would highly recommend these washable reuseable baby wipes from Cheeky Wipes! They are organic cotton, come in nice bright colors and are so lovely on baby skin. They come with a box you just add water to and a bag to take them out and about. I found that now I'm using them, disposable wipes seem really odd! They are like little flannels and clean much better than disposable wipes so I find I only use two per change! You just throw them in a nappy bucket with a drawstring mesh bag in it afterwards and then that goes straight in the washing machine so no need to touch dirty wipes afterwards. https://www.cheekywipes.com/baby-wipes-kit/baby-wipes-kit-mini.html

Hiya! I did The Group class at The Half Moon in Herne Hill over the summer (as The Lordship ED session was sold out) and really highly recommend it! My partner and I signed up to the NHS free sessions as well and were also unsure about which, if any, additional paid antenatal class to choose because of cost. In the end we were gifted The Group classes from a family member and I was so so pleased we were able to do them. We did them at the same time as the NHS sessions and although it was nice to also do the NHS sessions, we kept thinking, really the amount of information and detail covered by The Group was much more extensive and incomparable to the NHS which was a far more casual overview. The Group do 3 sessions on all birth scenarios and then 3 sessions on looking after a baby. The Half Moon sessions also included hot snacks, dinner really, during a break half way through which were a lovely perk and make the cost really good value! We chose The Group over NCT as The Group sessions are run by local midwives (NHS sessions are also run by a midwife but NCT are not). It was so brilliant having first hand qualified advice and the overlaps with the midwife teams that we/class members were with, whether home birth or hospital birth was lovely. They are such lovely people, even offering the option to turn to them for advice after the sessions have finished and they also run a lovely local free parent group called Mother Cuppa for afterwards. We debated on signing up for ages and were just so relieved and happy that we did! Honestly if you go with The Group, I can't imagine you would regret it :) ! And yes, bonus is you also meet several local couples going through the same thing at the same time. I wasn't necessarily thinking we'd need this as we do have friends with kids and recognize there are other ways to meet friends with babies the same age, but there has been something very bonding, fun and helpful in going through the before, during and after together! Location-wise, even though we did the Herne Hill group, there were other East Dulwichers doing that session and it's been great sorting ED or HH meetups together afterwards.

They also have them at the Francis Peek Centre (park office) in Dulwich park :) !

I saw the ambulance leaving, driving quite slowly with 2 police cars behind it so guessed the victim might be inside. The air ambulance then left shortly afterwards. Sorry don't have more concrete info. I haven't been able to find any news reports on it.

Thank you for posting Gerry. I arrived I think shortly after it happened. Very shocking. Hoping that the man is OK. Please keep an eye out for a white and brown terrier type dog named "Amy" who belongs to the person who was with the victim and who ran off terrified at the time. Many people searched the park extensively afterwards but when I left about half an hour ago, she still hadn't been found.

The lovely Norris And Knight cafe on forest hill road!

Just been birthday shopping for a friend this afternoon, all up and down Lordship lane and Northcross Road gift shops and our 2 small dogs were welcomed with lots of pets and attention and allowed in everywhere except for the kitchen shop, which was to be anticipated, being foodie focused! ED Mrs Robinson Eco Shop A J Farmers Oliver Bonas Rye Books Roullier White New Crafty Shop Fashion Conscience Shop Next To Brick House Bakery Barclays. . . I'm often surprised to find dogs welcomed in most places other than supermarkets and some restaurants. If I'm heading to a specific destination and I'm in doubt, I just call ahead and ask. Other dog friendly places: Romeo Jones Dulwich Village The Prince Regent Herne Hill Blue Brick Cafe ED The Cambria Pub in Camberwell Brixton Covered Market (always surprised by this one & start sweating a bit when security guards pass but no prob!?!) Canopy Beer Tap Room Herne Hill Lowie Herne Hill The Great Exhibition ED And non dog friendly finds: Kew Gardens (a shame to visit a park without dogs, though understandable :) !) Gails Dulwich Village (only allowed outside) The Lido Cafe (was initially dog friendly inside as well, very convenient being in Brockwell park but now dogs are only allowed outside, although they have been friendly to and fine with my dogs waiting inside with me while I grab take away coffees :) !) Brockwell Park Cafe

Had similar thoughts when I saw a Deliveroo biker run through a red light using the pedestrian crossings and pavement yesterday. Surely part of their training would be emphasizing following road rules/safety!?! Very sorry to hear of these other incidences. Would be brilliant to also email your message to Deliveroo RPC as guessing they're unlikely to see your post on here.
