- A years free subscription to Southwark News (Worth ?65)

- A bottle of Champagne donated by Foxtons (times 10! Yes that's 10 individual prizes)

- A ?45 massage voucher from the Wellbeing Well

- Organic body wash and shampoo from Healthmatters

- And another lucky winner will win the opportunity to blow out the candle on the birthday cake, how good is that?


so that's 15 prizes and thank you to all those who have donated. If you have something to donate please let me know asap. The raffle draw will take place about 10:30. and all proceeds will go to St Christopher's Hospice. Oh, I may need a hand doing the raffle ticket thing tonight so feel free to offer your help, thanks.



... it starts at 7:30pm upstairs of the Magdala. When you the Magdala go round to the left of the bar and you'll find stairs, we're up there. There's going to be free drinks for a short while, not all night but please come and say hello get a free drink ticket.


We're probably going to get some pizzas made in the Magdala kitchen to be served about 8 - 8:30 if you feel peckish.


The forum's been going almost a year now and in that time it's helped form numerous groups and clubs including the East Dulwich WI, football teams and a scrabble club, local business have benefited, friends have been made and some might say it's helped create a bit more of a friendly community feel round here.


So to celebrate this we are having a party upstairs at The Magdala on Lordship Lane (the big yellow pub near the police station) on the evening of the 21st September and you're invited. It doesn't matter if you're a frequent poster of messages, have posted the odd one or two or just like to watch, everyone's welcome so hopefully you'll keep that evening free to come along and have a drink.


Now for the best bit: If you have enjoyed the forum over that time it would be great for you to raise some money to put behind the bar for all to enjoy. If you want to show your appreciation and donate but would rather your extra money went to a local charity, please say so when you submit your donation. You can donate money via PayPal, (send your amount to [email protected]) or you'll notice there's a link down at the bottom right of the site that says Donate.


Please donate the price of a few pints (London prices of course), you'll be helping to make a good night a great night.


thanks and thanks for using the forum

    • What I don't understand is those that are clamouring for this says there is an urgent need for more teachers yet they also say there are lots of places at schools for the children leaving private school due to dwindling pupil numbers (at primary especially). Surely then the teacher "gap" can, in part, be plugged by this?   This does seem a very blinkered, dog whistle attack on a certain part of private education and it will be interesting to see how the courts (and Europe) views it. Given the government accelerated the rollout to happen in the middle of a school year (which no-one thought was a good idea) probably shows they may not believe they are on strong ground - it feels like a "beg for forgiveness rather than ask for permission" situation.
    • I have tried Ancestry (library) and Findmypast (library and paid). They both pay for archives to digitise some of their holdings. Forget details, Both has things other doesn't but think Ancestry is ahead. I found the search facility frustrating - you needed to play with options a lot.   My dad did research before these sites existed which was harder work but more fun. I recall instances where Ancestry made wrong assumptions (something like mire than one John and Joan Walker in same town).  
    • 01102528 and 01902663 are the two linked Police crime report numbers associated with the individual in the photos.
    • Montessori schools are private so will have to pay VAT.  Not sure what the confusion is. I expect most of us who never even considered sending our kids to Prep school, Montessori or Steiner have particular sympathy.  Of course in a years time we will see and you may say "I told you so".
