I just went past Camberwell Old Cemetery on Underhill Road and noticed significantly fewer trees. What on earth has happened? It used to be dense, now you can see right into the cemetery.


I thought Southwark Council had implied tree felling wasn't to be done without consultation/ for some time/ not heavy handed?!


Very, very sad loss of further green spaces and habitat.

Southwark has in all likelihood (as I don't sit in the meetings) used an opportunity to take down trees to make Mr Hargrove's vision of a "traditional" cemetery a reality. Trees with plaques can be a cemetery. Benches with plaques under trees and in foliage can be a cemetery. Wall made of plaques with dense bio-diversity can be a cemetery. Two layers of cement is the vision of the Council because that's "what people want".

      EDF Football Predictor ...

      By diable rouge · Posted

      Week 11 points...   Week 11 table...   Almost a third of the way through the season and RC is comfortably holding onto his early lead, and also flying the flag for the EDF with 10th place overall, 11 points behind the leaders. 👏 Another international break, back in just over a weeks time...

      Supermarkets refusing to honour price on the shelf

      By jazzer · Posted

      Never had a problem with the discount being applied with a "club" loyalty card, so Tesco and Sainsburys have been fine, however in Morrisons a reduced price advertised on the item, took a photo just in case, at checkout charged full price even though photo shown as evidence. Some dodgy practices being undertaken.

      Coffee bike business, need overnight storage.

      By Cuppa Joes · Posted

      Hi everyone. My name is Joe and I'm hoping to launch a Coffee Bike business in East Dulwich in the next few weeks. One of the last things I'm really struggling with is securing overnight storage for the bike. It's very heavy to ride and I'm unable to store it at home, so it needs to be somewhere in East Dulwich. I've tried a few businesses to see if they have anything but no luck. Dulwich Storage on Lordship lane are not taking any new bookings at the moment.  If anyone has any ideas or can help I would be really grateful.  Many thanks in advance. Joe
