Thank you to St Barnabas Church for a lovely carol service with their children’s choir and brass band in Dulwich Square - hundreds of people gathering, a special event!

That’s an extra sign isn’t it? The one with the timings was still there recently.

Off topic much? This is a CPZ thread.

If you spot it, it’s worth reporting as the Southwark website says they aim to clean within 48hrs. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/parking-streets-and-transport/street-care/dog-poo

The ‘Our Bike’ community cargo bike might be an option, especially if you have some other shopping to do nearby on the Old Kent Rd. You can hire the bike by the hour, and there are two available in East Dulwich. https://ourbike.co.uk/

Trossachs Road is worth walking to, lovely advent windows.

St Barnabas Church will be hosting carols in the square on Christmas Eve at 3:30pm. It's always a heartwarming occasion to see the community come together and enjoy the festive spirit in this beautiful space.

This is all disingenuous nonsense. I haven't seen a single mention from those concerned about 'dangerous cycling' regarding the motorcyclists speeding through illegally—one of whom collided with a 14-year-old girl riding her bike—or the fact that concrete blocks and other barriers have had to be placed to prevent reckless drivers from mounting the curb and driving through pedestrian areas.

It’s obvious which version is safer, and also which version has allowed more children than ever to be walking and cycling to school. Nicely illustrated by this photo comparison in a recent post from Clean Air Dulwich. https://bsky.app/profile/cleanairdulwich.bsky.social/post/3ld6usq4qbs2a

Agree, the roads would be a much safer place if the speed of drivers was restricted to the speed limit.

It’s a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) in the form of a rain garden. Appeared to be working very well during the week when there was heavy rain overnight.

Again Rockets, please stop with calling them accidents. Language matters. https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/national-highways-to-stop-using-of-the-word-accident

Thank goodness it didn't happen at rush hour given it's proximity to the school and how busy that junction is with people walking and cycling.
