Yes, there is veggie stuff - the menu is the same (or very similar) to what tracyk posted above:

I have to agree. I've had a couple of disappointing experiences at Love Dulwich. I sympathise because it's a tough business but I'm afraid I'm not inclined to return.

Happy birthday! I've just read a bunch of your reviews and really enjoyed it. You write Interestingly without being too ornate, and you manage to give a really good insight into the "vibe" of a place as well as the food. Totally agree with your review of Rocca - it's simple, great food in a friendly atmosphere at a completely reasonable price, esp considering the location.

I keep my promises...had the Sweet & Sour Chicken. It was great - the best sweet and sour dish I've ever had. The chicken itself was good and the sauce seemed home made with real vegetables and pineapple - it is NOT the red sugar sauce goo you get elsewhere. The Korean fried chicken was very good but the sweet chili sauce was much more chili than sweet - just far too spicy for me. There is a honey something sauce that I will get next time. Egg fried veggie rice was good as a side. We also ordered the chicken katsu curry which was polished off so quickly I didn't get to taste it. It looked very good tho. SD is not like Magic Wok used to be - cheap and filling but junk food. (Don't get me wrong - I went often to Magic Wok). SD's food is much higher quality, real ingredients, chunky portions, freshly prepared. I'll be back, for sure.

If, for some odd reason, Mediquip can't or won't take back the items, then White Eagle Ukraine Appeal in Balham will very gratefully accept donations of clean medical equipment and unused consumables. They will have the stuff in Western Ukraine and donated to local hospitals or care facilities there within a couple of weeks.

With gym memberships, it depends how often you go and how much you get out of it. If you go 3 times a week or lose 10kg in a year, that's a bargain. If you never go, it's incredibly expensive. There are people who will happily spend £50 2-3 times a week at the pub or on takeaway food or coffees over the course of a week or leasing a car. Whether it's worth it is up to you. 🤷‍♂️

I don't know if any of the cricket or tennis clubs also have little gyms. There are also pilates studios on Melbourne Grove, Blackwater St, North Cross Rd and even the community hall of the church on Calton Ave. The David Lloyd gym in Orpington is very luxurious and expensive.

Why? It's a local government matter, not a national government matter. The accountable elected official is your councillor and the responsible workers are the council employees.

Plenty of business for your new venture today, apparently...

Surprising (not surprising at all) that @Mavdidn't have anything to say about how schools other than Dulwich College handled bigotry or abuse, or any other related topic. I suppose they just didn't like Dulwich College being discussed for things that happened at Dulwich College... Meanwhile, a second person (a pupil this time, and not a teacher) has come forward to say that they wrote to the head teacher of Dulwich College at the time to inform him of Farage's bigoted conduct. It has previously been reported that the head teacher was personally involved in selection of prefects, and that Farage was appointed a prefect. If the head teacher was aware, and appointed/maintained Farage as prefect regardless instead of taking action, then I think we have the answer to our question: yes, Dulwich College did tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jan/08/go-back-home-farage-schoolmate-accounts-bring-total-alleging-racist-behaviour-to-34

If you're convinced (despite evidence to rhe exact contrary) that there is net emigration from the UK and there's about to be a house price crash, then the "Mansion Tax" won't be such a worry for you. If you own a property, are you putting it on the market to avoid the house price crash?

The figures cited above are for the period since the 2024 election. It is not true that: Moreover, we have had net immigration every year since 1993 (see table at bottom of page 5), and very little housebuilding since then. https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/SN06077/SN06077.pdf Literally millions of people would need to leave the UK population (by emigration or death) before we would have due to lack of people seeking housing. Losing a million people overnight would only get us back to 2020 levels, when the housing crisis was already well established.

This isn't true either. In the year up to June 2025, the UK had 898,000 immigrants and 693,000 emigrants. Net migration was therefore +204,000 into the UK. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/internationalmigration/bulletins/longterminternationalmigrationprovisional/yearendingjune2025

So much nonsense in a single post! 1) this vaguely xenophobic stuff is based on a belief that London is full of houses owned by foreigners that are kept empty and out of the hands of native buyers and renters. This is unmitigated bullshit. "England has the lowest rate of empty homes in the OECD, and Greater London has about one-tenth the level of Paris, just 0.7% of properties being empty compared to 6.5%...the effect on the general housing crisis is minuscule. London, Oxford, Cambridge, Brighton and other cities have eye-wateringly expensive housing because of high demand and low supply. That’s the obvious and boring answer." https://www.edwest.co.uk/p/the-myth-of-londons-empty-homes 2) where do you get this idea that infill sites have to be small? Southwark and the GLA planning documents explicitly recognise that industrial sites can be infill sites. 3) It is simply factually untrue and misleading that taller buildings are out of character for the area of the development. The neighbouring school has taller blocks, Hambledon Court on the other side of the tracks is a taller building, the Dog Kennel Hill estate on the other side of the station consists of taller buildings. 4) if that is the lesson you have taken away, then is your opposition to this new housing in East Dulwich part of a Lib Dem policy to "deny, baby, deny"? Let's be real for a second: there is no way out of the housing crisis that doesn't involve building lots of new housing. If we can't build on top of a disused builder's yard above a railway station, where are we going to build in this neighbourhood? 5) This is also nonsense. The student accommodation was initially closed because of systemic fire risks that made the buildings unsafe. KCL is now halfway through totally renovating the blocks and expanding capacity. KCL gets twice as many applications for student accommodation as it can fulfil. KCL just opened another 452 student rooms in Battersea - so clearly they don't have a concern about a cataclysmic decline in student numbers. https://www.rlb.com/europe/projects/kcl-champion-hill/ https://roarnews.co.uk/2024/kcl-accommodation-still-empty-four-years-after-evacuation/ https://www.constructionenquirer.com/2025/03/03/watkin-jones-wins-30m-student-digs-campus-upgrade/ It is really disappointing that someone involving themselves in planning matters is relying on (and spreading) prejudices, misconceptions and misinformation like this.
