Om, I lost count of the number of times the queue moves so slowly I have mussed 10-15 mins from swimming or softplay at Peckham


And the hydro pool is open for such a short time each day in the holidays, compared with other pools


I spent yesterday calling Peckham to see what times were on. No answer. No info on website. Fusion head office had no info and couldnt get through either! After 5 hours I gave up and called forest hill who answered right away and said they were open all day


So we went there today

I think you might have been lucky to get a space on that road as during term time you have the parking from the two schools at either end of the road and of course the locals themselves. Fuschia, does your street have any nice amenities that the people from Forest Hill could avail of after parking outside your house? Care to name it?


The 176 and 197 stop right outside the pool so it is within and easy bus ride of ED.


BTW, I don't live on that street but I think Otta probably has loads of parking beside her.

Indeed, but you forgot to mention the chicken shop, the kebab shop, and the excellent offy that sells all cans for ?1.


PS. If you do come to the pool, I'd advise avoiding the cafe, it costs a fortune!

Fuschia, yes we had the same issue, 3 kids under 5 but could never park outside the house, always wanted to paint a Parent and Pram sign on the road. Yes, some people would say that would be discriminatory against all those people who pay taxes so that we can overpopulate the world.


Back to FH, while you are availing of the swimming pool and all the great shops on Dartmouth Road, call into Robert Stanford a really good estate agent or the other two and buy/rent a house there.

      Chern Thai Restaurant Reopened On Grove Vale

      By Zak · Posted

      They’ve overhauled the kitchen and I gather they have a new chef. Also, a new menu is on the way.   What with Norbert’s arriving soon on Melbourne Grove, there’s going to be an Interesting offer down there.

      I watched this BBC expose on the news a week or so ago and wasn’t surprised at what they found although ii’s shocking when you see what the Police uncover. The amount of nail bars in London appearing almost daily is also cause for concern. What I can’t understand is the places that were raided had thousands and thousands of pounds of unpaid gas, electric etc bills.

      Looking for a GP with experience of autoimmune rheumatic diseases

      By Soylent Green · Posted

      GPs are general practitioners, hence the name; they are not specialists.  Specialist doctors only work in hospitals.  Each GP surgery has a catchment area; you cannot just choose a GP because you think they are the best match for your health condition, you have to be in their catchment.  If you are not happy with the one you are currently with, ring round the others nearby and find an alternative who is able to take you.  Then, work with your hospital clinic and the GP together to maintain your health. As an aside, I have a chronic autoimmune condition and have had no problems with the shared care of my GP (The Gardens) and hospital consultant ( I am under Prof Heneghan).  I visit the clinic twice a year, they advise my GP of any changes and the GP does my prescriptions (which include a controlled drug) and my blood tests in between.  When there has been any queries about compatibility or suitability of a treatment, the GP contacts the team at Kings for advice.  The system works perfectly.   Good luck with your change of GP and give them any hospital letters when you sign up.  A GP along cannot manage your condition, so you will need to ask your hospital specialists to set up a new shared care agreement with your new GP (this has to be done this way; a GP cannot set that up).

      How can one have the confidence that it is not the barista cutting your hair and the barber making your coffee?
