Fantastic news - the club have just announced their return to Champion Hill (looking at around 4-6 weeks until the ground is ready). http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichhamlet/news/dulwich-hamlet-football-club-and-dulwich-hamlet-su-2360561.html

Looking ahead to Sunday, anyone have any recommendations about the best place to watch the football in ED? I normally go to the Rye or EDT, but there must be something better out there...

Definitely interested in this - used to go to Dulwich Table Tennis Club, but the training and attendance was a bit hit and miss.

Definitely would be interested in this

Nothing at all this evening near Goose Green - it's getting ridiculous

Anyone else having problems with internet this morning (near goose green)?

Launched in the UK this morning - I can sense a drawn out battle ahead for control of the EDT gym...

Nice try Escobar...

I would say you're asking the question on the wrong forum. Some good advice here, but you sound like you need to talk to some seriously experienced lifters if you're eating at that sort of level, and have a good experience of programmes. The subreddit for fitness https://www.reddit.com/r/fitness is a fantastic resource for all things strength and hypertrophy based. Try asking this question on there.

Was anyone else there when the train caught fire back in December? We were all trapped down one end of the platform with people running across the tracks to escape. I would have thought that might have made them think about an exit strategy...

The place has so much potential to be a community asset - but is currently a huge money making exercise for a private company. Subsidised by the council.

Another recommendation for Fabulous Ice Fires - Much better than Oddono's, and easily on par with the best gelato I've had in Italy. Popped in yesterday with my Italian friend who backed me up on this. Cheap too.

Wonder if anyone has experience of cancelling membership at Fusion in East Dulwich - I went to cancel my membership (after finding a gym with similar facilities for a third of the price) and they said a month's notice was needed, and would take next months direct deposit as well. Is this standard practice with Gyms like this? I asked them what would happen if I just cancelled the DD myself, but they said it would count as unpaid fees if I ever tried to join again (which isn't impossible)...

Yep, CS7 takes you from Queen Street in the City, and circles round the roundabout. If you then go straight on to Hampton street after passing St Mary's church yard, you can follow another cycle route down Heygate street, which is usually quiet and stress free. That then brings you to Burgess park, which is lovely to cycle through, before getting on to the Surrey Linear Canal path down to Rye Lane. All the way to Peckham with barely any traffic.
