It has been a very fickle summer, weather wise. It's a good space. I do hope it takes off, I don't see why it shouldn't. I think the hours are too short, I think that's a problem.


I went to the Wimbledon car boot on Saturday and it was heaving but then that is an established do. That's on from 8am to about 3pm.

I went with a audio dealer. I buy and sell too. I was a bit distracted myself with other matters, but non the less, a good mix of collectables, consumables and general stuff, a good half day out.

Certainly, but why not try East Dulwich car boot first as the cost of transport will knock a hole in your profit.

I'd recommend the boots sale at Hayes Farm - the place seems to be heaving with both customers and sellers - its held every 2 weeks on a Sunday morning (last one on 12/8) ....... its 5 mins in the car beyond the Glades shopping centre in Bromley.

Most of the queries on Hayes Farm boot sale is covered on their website posted above. Not so sure about walk-ins and have only been as a customer, but there always seems to be plenty of business going on.

Hayes Farm is the best boot sale by far, for both seller and buyer (if you can get there). Plenty of space for stalls and plenty of parking space for buyers (which makes it good for selling larger and more expensive items too).


Can't comment on DH now though as I've only been once when it was starting up.

      free for Southwark residents

      By trinidad · Posted

      Hello, with the weather improving, I thought I would flag up the free access to leisure centres in southwark. 1. If you are experiencing poor mental and physical health and live in the borough, the GP exercise referral service allows up to three months of free use of leisure centers. There are three levels of support, and you can even refer yourself. read more for more info: Kickstart, Active Boost and Cardiactive - Everyone Health Southwark   2. If you don't have challenges with physical ands mental health, you can access the free swim and gym for a year. for more info: Free swim & gym eligibility requirements – Leisure Facilities in Southwark 3. Are you a blue badge holder? you can apply for the AD Permit, a virtual payment which allows disabled drivers to part on single and double yellow lines without the need of displaying a blue bae in the windscreen. there is also information for disabled residents to use the Low Traffic Neighborhood (LTNs) around the borough.  Exemptions for Blue Badge holders | Southwark Council Want more information? use the councils website: www.southwark.gov.uk

      Thames Water - water meters

      By EDmummy101 · Posted

      I am about to tomorrow. I only just realised after asking some neighbours today. Agreed that smaller households should of course pay less, like discounted council tax bills for those on benefits for example. However as our bills have gone up astronomically generally in the last few years, I do feel hardworking families are being penalised... also avid gardeners will be penalised in the summer when gardens are watered no doubt.

      Thames Water - water meters

      By trinidad · Posted

      Hello Womanofdulwich, I had a meter installed in the summer of last year. Currently my bills have fallen massively. Can you remember which month your water meter was installed? Also I received two appointments, one from a group of staff in orange who decide if the property is suitable for the water meter, and then a second appointment for the meter to be installed, did you have the same thing? Are you saying as well that you was cold called regarding the water meter, or are you saying someone from Thames water turned up, at your door unannoyed?   Lastly (so sorry to through so much questions at you) how many bedrooms do you have and how many people live at the property?
