Chener books is brilliant! The guy who runs it is helpful and knowledgeable. Everyone should buy their books there whenever possible.

Exactly!

Poor quality of painting, refurb, etc currently in progress at Pretty's old shop! Doesn't look promising in terms of whoever is likely to open up a new business there? North Cross Road is great and deserves better!!!

I have heard that M&S have hired her to open their new store.

The stocky beggar with short grey hair, always by the Coop, is clearly a con man! Don't give him any money.

We all agree that East Dulwich / London Bridge service is a disgraceful non-service. The so-called temporary timetable is a cynical way for Southern to appear to be running a more reliable service. They are so pathetic, however, that they fail even to deliver this timetable; and, in particular to operate the handful of trains that are supposed to run between 06.30 and 09.00. Despite all the complaints, public petitions, interventions from MPs, the Mayor and media coverage .... nothing happens! Why? The Government is 100% to blame for allowing Southern to continue this farce - they awarded a long-term franchise with pathetic, inadequate sanctions in place for non-performance. Therefore, Southern aren't suffering any significant financial pain for the misery they are imposing on us! Meanwhile, the Government sheds crocodile tears but finds the money to push ahead with the HS2 vanity project: ?90 billion 'down the drain' and counting! They should invest that money instead in much needed improvements to the existing UK rail system. The last Rail Minister, Claire Perry, resigned after failing to tackle the current mess. BUT WHAT ACTION IS THE GOVERNMENT TAKING NOW TO END THE MISERY THAT IS SOUTHERN RAIL?!?!?!

Does anyone know what is happening with "Pretty's" in North Cross Road - both the greengrocer's shop and the old cafe? There is some activity there!

Does anyone know who is taking over the old HSBC bank building in Lordship Lane and what is the planned use e.g. shop,restaurant, bank, office???

Southern rail are not fit for purpose. Worst performing train operator in the country. Over 10,000 people have signed a petition to Parliament for them to be stripped of their franchise.

I blame Boris Johnson!

You really are a top top DHFC supporter, Otta! Pathetic. "Wow, didn't realise it was today. Go Dulwich! Can't believe I've not been to a match in 2016. Bloody kids."

Angelina - it's you that's so boring AND cheapskate!

Guardian reader by any chance? Pathetic!

East Dulwich laptop squatters make headline news! 😀 http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/society/cafe-customer-plugs-in-laptop-kettle-and-toaster-20160414108029

Park somewhere else and catch a bus or cab to the station please. We don't want you, and other non-residents, clogging up our roads!

nxjen - thank you for info re mac & miller

Does anyone know what type of shop "Mac & Miller" on North Cross Road is going to be? Thanks.

"Jimmy Nesbitt shouldn't be considered a sighting unless he is armed with an axe and b*ll*ck naked chasing someone along Lordship Lane." EXCELLENT! 😀

"Went once - thought the service was less than adequate and the food wasn't great, although the tea was quite nice - I never bothered going back as it just wasn't welcoming enough or good enough to justify a second visit." I AGREE - lots of better places in ED.

The East Dulwich / London Bridge morning peak service has deteriorated over the last few years - in terms of frequency and journey time. Passenger numbers have increased significantly over this period. You couldn't make it up. Southern are a disgrace. What are their improvement plans - does anyone know please?

How about improving the East Dulwich / London Bridge service. The morning peak service has deteriorated over the last few years - in terms of frequency and journey time. Passenger numbers have increased over this period. You couldn't make it up. Southern are a disgrace.
