I'd never heard of this car booter, so thanks for your posting.


I did go today. Not sure about it?


It felt a bit strange as we were all waiting for 1.30pm despite the oragnisers being on site, even the sellers had to wait.


I came away thinking that the organisers did not give two hoots for anyone and just wanted everyones money...

I was thinking of giving this a go last week, but couldn't as we ended up having people round for dinner, I popped up as it opened, just to have a nosey round, and have to admit I thought it was a bit weird too... your stuff was lovely Lindsey <3, I know my mate picked a few bits up off you for her little girl.


There were a few sellers that were regular car booters just selling your average junk, but if more people from the local area start selling, there might be more stuff that people actually want!!!


Anyway, I'm going to give it a go this weekend I reckon - will be selling lots of baby/toddler gear and toys - (Some Katvig, Molo, Lots of H&M) along with some adults stuff (Next, Topshop), a lot of it new and unused. Hope everyone is up for giving this a chance as I think the area needs it! Everything is so expensive, and I'm sure we all have lots of stuff that could be loved by someone else just hanging around in our cupboards!!!

I sold there once but haven't since. I have been put off by having to set up whilst surrounded by buyers rummaging through the boxes still in my boot! I found it impossible to keep an eye on my stuff and am sure that some of it went walk about in the confusion. I found the experience far too stressful to bother trying again.


I asked the organisers at the time, and on this board, if the sellers could be let in slightly before the buyers but did not receive an answer; I think Echo is right - they are only interested in taking the cash. It's a shame because it could be a really useful local benefit.

I am going to be selling there again today.....selling 'the body shop' bits...and also baby clothes!!!

Today I'll also be selling other body products from places such as next. All brand new!!

Also on sale today are clip in hair extensions from ?1 each!!

Watches, costume jewellery too!!!

    • 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.
