Ditto, how annoying. Tues mornings would clash with the baby clinic for me and anyone else at DMC, so my vote would be to find another venue for mon mornings... Has anyone been to the new cafe where jacks used to be on pellatt rd?

Hi everyone - I live right near the old jacks cafe on Pellatt Road and although it is a lovely new cafe (Captured in the Rye) it's really not suitable for a babies meet as it is tiny tiny - no room for a pushchair.


Its not very glamourous but I have recently discovered the Bread of Life cafe located in the church on Barry road near dulwich Library (opp the Plough pub car park).


Its big, welcomes babies etc and has inexpensive food and cakes...plenty of room for buggies.


Might be an idea...? Now Freddie is 3 weeks old I hope to make it along again soon


Louise

Bread of Life would be fine with me. Or if everyone def wants to stick to the gardens, what about weds morning?


Louise, hope all's well with you and Freddie - Caroline and I were wondering last week when you might be venturing out to a Monday meet up!

Amber/Caroline - starting to feel a bit more 'with it' now Freddie is 3 weeks old (!) - unfortunately Mondays are not great for the next few weeks as I have my best pal here next Monday and my mum the Monday after


Next Tuesday or Wednesday I am free though and Annabel is at nursery which makes it a bit easier - if anyone is up for a meet up?

Louise

Dish and Spoon would also be fine with me. I won't be at Lucas tomorrow as I can't do lunchtimes - it's sacrosanct nap time in my house where we all go to sleep for an hour or two!


Would be up for a one-off alternative meet up this week eg Gardens on Weds morning if anyone else fancies it.... no worries if not though.

I keep meaning to try and join you on one of the meetups, my little boy is now 7 weeks old but with a toddler daughter as well has proved difficult.


Wanted to add that the dish and spoon is nt open on a monday either so would be no good, second bread of life cafe not the best of food but cheap and cheerful. And for those wanting to bring toddlers has a few toys and plenty of space.


Can't think of any other cafes with the space other than the park cafes.

Hello, shall we stick with Monday's, and try the Bread of Life? I for one have given up being cool a loooong time ago (if I ever was!)! It looks like some other meet UPS are happening naturally so if we all keep posting then hopefully everyone can find one that suits! On that note, I know I suggested the park on Friday's but that has ended up being my NCT meet up (the other lady's babies weren't born when I suggested that date) so sorry I haven't made that yet. I do think I can finally make it this Friday so if anyone is up for that, please do post!

Take care and hope all are well,

How annoying about The Gardens! Bread of Life cafe on a Monday as an alternative venue sounds good to me. Can't make tomorrow as my toddler is at Diddi Dance (on your recommendation, Amber - we went last week and William LOVED it!) and Fridays don't work for me either so really looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday and catching up.


Louise - hope all is going well with Freddie -looking forward to meeting him in due course!

Caroline - we do Diddi Dance too now but on a Friday - at the Christ Church on Barry Road (hence why I have also discovered the Bread of Life)...Annabel really likes it too!


Amber - I bumped into Otis (and his new nanny?) a few weeks ago coming out of the 10am Diddi dance class? We do the 11am on Fridays now.


I hope to make it tomorrow too - as long as I have an ok-ish night!


Louise

Caroline, shame you're not doing the Friday diddidance class - would be nice to intro Otis and William!


Louise, yes basically after I last saw you, i found out that Otis and Annabel already know each other from tippee toes, and the birthday party at dish and spoon you mentioned was one that Otis had already been invited to - I just didn't put two and two together!


Anyway, hope to see you both tomorrow / mon!

    • Vispring, I'm not a poet so I don't have enough vocabulary to gush about it, best money I ever spent. Open your wallet, they say you spend a third of your life rafting on it (probably more these days with Netflix).
    • Ah wonderful, I'll pop in and see him One more day and then the fundraiser will close. Just £70 needed to get to £1,500. Thank you all for your generosity and support. Private messages have been lovely. 
    • Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next. 
    • IMO, Sealy, the best nights sleep you'll ever have.
