I no longer live in East Dulwich - would have thought that as so many of you use dog walkers, they might be able to offer advice or local vet

Thought is was hospice policy not to reduce anything if asked - ie only hospice can decide if they will reduce items in shops not client

Try going to their West Dulwich branch - certainly not cheap either but bear in mind that this does fund one hopes, or my understanding the hospice.. Charity Shops use to get reduced rent - no idea if this is still the case. if you want bargains then go to Bromley High Street - plenty of charity hops there and once in a while BHF have a week long promotion where literally everything in shop is £1.00.

Must be someone who can help - never heard that RSPCA would not come out for a dog in distress and even worse that from what I have read or gathered this has been going one for abit… guess it is a question of passing the buck and I thought ED were a dog friendly community. Surely one of you who have commented could have asked for advice from vet in Lordship Lane or even picked up the phone and called them…

Try Saga and Age Concern for recommendations. Google - plenty of companies out there - some banks I believe offer travel insurance as do credit cards. If you have health insurance they might be able to help or try that avenue - actually thinking about it as I am of a similar age, with various health conditions when I went to USA pre Covid for a month - was around £400/500 but that was yearly - so guess if there are two of you, maybe it is correct. I use to when I travelled to USA cover my self to the hilt as well as repatriation to UK if I got too ill.

Nope - a case of demand.

Wasn’t some respected person in the community attacked and subsequently died by a dog of similar breed a few months ago? Not saying same dog. Take a photo next time if you can. All dogs need exercise - lead walking would not be, I think enough for this breed.

Recently on radio 4, there was talk/program discussing dentist and how difficult it is to access a dentist period in all parts of UK. Tonight, on tv there was a brief topic about young children under the age of 6 going, I think to A & E to get their teeth extracted - think it was on bbc1. On radio 4 along the same lines of difficulty accessing dentists be it private or non private - I believe that hygienists or the likes are now going into schools to encourage/teach children to brush their teeth. I believe they even provide toothpaste and brushes. My question is why can’t or won’t parents deal with it themselves? Surely it must be a parental responsibility? Or are teachers now going to be expected to assist with this as well as educate them.

Not sure if this is allowed, if not then please delete. My dentist practice in west wickham is accepting nhs patients. Knowing how difficult it is to find one, thought I would share. PM for further info…

Try air b n b and open rent if you have no joy here

Hope not - personally think they are one of the best cafe around. Maybe it is going to be a combination of cafe in day and Turkish at night - now that would be good. Since I have moved and only come up a couple of times a year, will be following. when I was there recently, they were getting into instagram, Facebook etc so hoping that not closing. Food freshly cooked and staff so nice - nothing too much trouble. A couple of the chains could learn from them - one in particular which shall remain nameless.

Oh for heavens sake, kid has an upset stomach or a bug… are you trying to blame cafe?low response rate.. You a new Mom? Can understand concern, flagging but your child unless a baby or toddler, has just got a bug…temp or constant upheave, obviously Kings or ambulance .

At the end of the day, whilst these youngsters have been enterprising presumably with adult help & I also assume no local youth group - the fact remains that it is a prime site fir redevelopment be it a supermarket - Aldi, Lidel whatever or social housing which, let’s be honest here lots of people need. Know Idea why has been derelict gor do long anyhow, but somewhere on this site I think there is a problem with who owns it. And let’s not forget the homeless man who slept there - Front on Lordship Lane who had his home destroyed by I assume vandals a couple of years ago.

Didn’t this happen last year as well?

Why on earth is it going to take 3.5 months? Other countries do it much faster - what is wrong with this country? Unless of course underlying problems - potential sink hole being one…the inconvenience caused to all - wonder if working at weekend would speed it up & at night..
