There's also a street party on Crystal Palace Road, between noon and 5pm.


See the thread in the "What's On" section of the forum! It's the part of the road between North Cross Road and Whateley Road.


:)-D


Edited to say: Bring food to share, plus picnic chairs if you have them, there will be lots of fun including games, music, a plant stall and a raffle :)

Crystal Palace Road has live music from 2pm including Jen Doyle and Joe Fowler (brilliant local duo who you may have seen when they played the final set at the Dulwich Fair on Goose Green earlier in the year :) ) and Fran McGillivray and Mike Burke (equally brilliant but quite different local blues duo who supported Eliza Carthy and Saul Rose at DHFC a couple of weeks back).


PLUS


There will be a busker who we are told is fantastic, plus CPR resident Fidel with his band will be playing at around 3.30pm after the raffle (raffle is at 3pm - excellent prizes!!)


PLUS


Before the live music there will be Big Chill/Goose Is Out! DJs with a mixture of all kinds of music, much of which we hope you will sing along to :)

Yeah me too Steve.....I could offer them decks and blatently promote my own trumpet, after all there's nothing like a community event to hijack is there?


Bit mean to say that I know but when within 11 posts someone posts TWICE to promote their event when the thread isnt even about them just pees me off a little.

They are open to anyone sophie and you can drop by to more than one. I'll put up a list in a moment of all the ones locally. Go to them all if you want to :))

Sorry - just trying to give info to people who may not have seen the other thread, which is in the "What's On" section.


The title of the thread says "the" street party, although as has been pointed out there are several street parties going on in East Dulwich.


Surely the more information about them all the merrier - then people can decide which they want to go to, although I guess as this is about getting to know your neighbours, most people will go to the one nearest them?


Apologies if I've pissed anyone off, but I was only trying to spread the word :-S


As anybody else can do about their street party .....

Thats fair enough Sue, I also took it to be a thread for anyone to talk about the street parties coming up and think (hope) that most can decide for themselves which is most convenient/appealing.


Best of luck to everyone, clearly a lot of effort and hard work by the organisers.


Might pop along to my nearest one - Sunday is a lazy day after all :)

If you were on CP Road (or even if you weren't and are wondering what you missed!) check this out: Helen Jermyn, our lovely 'official' photographer, will put her photos from the CP Rd Big Lunch on

The set's called "Crystal Palace Road Big Lunch 2010" and the privacy level will be set to public which means anyone can view the photos there.


Sue was spot on with her prediction that it would be a great party - she helped to make it so. And thanks for the thanks, Fuschia, we're delighted you enjoyed yourself!

Was at the Crystal Palace Road party from 2 onwards and it was a perfect way to spend the afternoon - eating lovely food, enjoying great live music (who was that amazing singer in the last set?) and enjoying good company. Bumped into old friends, spent time with forum friends and made new friends. Not bad for a sunny Sunday.


A very big thank you to the organisers and to everyone who brought food to share.

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
