Are you between 7 and 11 years of age and want to be an author? Dulwich Books invites you to a taster session for one hour with well-known author and creative writing teacher, Sam Hepburn.


During the workshop we will be looking at the structure, content and vocabulary for writing a short story about a character who wakes up one morning to find themselves turning into a magical beast. Children will leave with a story plan which they can work on over the school holidays and submit for a competition which will be judged by Sam. Entries will also be showcased on the www.shoutaboutmagazine.com website.


Sam Hepburn read Modern Languages at Cambridge University before joining the BBC, where she was producer of factual programmes for over 25 years and was the Commissioner for the launch of BBC 4. Her latest novel is Chasing the Dark.


This event will take place on Thursday 3rd July, starting at 4pm it will run for an hour and will include hands-on exercises designed to encourage creative writing for children aged 7-11 years old.

      postal collections

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      My experience is that my local letter box does have week-day-ly collections - but I think very early in the morning, not at the old 'around 5.00pm' times. There are several daily collections from the box outside the Forest Hill Road sub-post office. I don't think the 'Monday' tab is now ever changed. Mail collections from boxes have got nothing to do with the service we (don't) get from the Peckham Delivery Office. Your Wednesday 12th posting would probably only have been collected on Thursday 13th, if it was posted after 9.00am. If it was being delivered in East Dulwich (where the Peckham DO does come into play) then getting it by the following Tuesday is probably par for the course.

      Are there no daily collections from post boxes any more? On Wednesday Feb 12 I posted a Valentine's Card in the postbox which is about 20 metres from our house to make sure it arrived by Feb 14 (yes I know I could've put it thru letterbox but that's not as romantic is it). After I posted it I noticed the little metal thingy said "Monday" but I thought this must be a mistake and had not been changed. However, Valentine's Day came and went and no card arrived. In fact it arrived on the following Tuesday, Feb 18 so I'm guessing the Monday collection metal thingy was correct. Has it ever been announced officially that there are no longer daily collections from letterboxes? I remember a time, not even that long ago, when the red postman pat van would pull up at least twice a day, every weekday.

      Missing cat

      By Roddy · Posted

      My lovely tuxedo cat, Rexy, has been missing since Wednesday which is very out of character. Rodwell Road area, SE22. He is a rescue cat so really quite timid with people he doesn’t know. If you spot him, could you please contact me? Many thanks. He is chipped and neutered.  Photos attached.
